I have several instances, where File ID is not unique in my Dropbox account. Below is two sets of metadata including “id”, “name”, “path_display”, “size”, “rev”, “content_hash”, “server_modified” from two different files. Filenames, paths and file sizes are different, but the first field with file id is the same. The metadata is extracted with a python script. I can send the script if needed.
How can different files have identical file Ids in same account? It makes file movements and downloads based on file ID a risky action.
