Hi @maverick1985,

In the response object from the request sent to /team/members/list_v2[continue] endpoint, you should check if the roles property is present. The information contained in this property provides the role_id, the type of admin role the user has (under name), and a short description of the role.

As such:

"roles": [
        {
          "role_id": "pid_dbtmr:AAAAAFMcx6E0tax39",
          "name": "Team",
          "description": "Manage everything and access all permissions"
        }
]

Additionally, a request to /team/members/get_available_team_member_roles provides the available team roles for the connected team, along with each role's respective role_id — for roles defined by Dropbox, this ID is the same across all teams.

This information could then be used to filter through the list of returned users.

I hope you find this information helpful!
