Thanks for your help, @"Greg-DB". Hopefully one day soon we'll reach the minimum density and distribution for all of these questions via previously-posted messages in the forum so that you (and whomever comes after you) will not necessarily having to be on-base constantly. These all seem like basic questions, but I'll open…

Okay. Yes. That's what I was missing. I saw enough entries that has non-None team-member IDs that I missed that the one I was looking for had a None one. Yes. That's fine. I'm not dealing with pagination given that this is a PoC that didn't require it. Since this is a team-level folder, I've just enumerated the members and…

Okay, so rather than getting sucked into testing a PR that already professed to add that support or creating a PR of my own (because that PR had issues), I just reverted to using Python to have more control. I use a Team object to enumerate the namespaces, filter for the right one, and grab the namespace ID, and then set…

Thanks for responding, @"Greg-DB". Yes. I'm aware. Dropbox doesn't [seemingly] provide an "uploader" attribute, so the modified-by attribute is all I have. With our usage, we can assume that all files are uploaded once, so it's equivalent. There's a sizable amount of your response dedicate to selecting a member-ID, but all…

See the second sentence of the first post. I'm not talking about me, I'm talking about whomever uploaded/modified the file that the app is being notified about. I'm not asking you anything, specifically. I'm asking the community.

How would getting my own account help me get the account of the uploader? Are you saying that you think that there's no way of looking up users/members by account ID within the context of this app (my original question)?

Given how many different ways the account and webhooks can be configured and how difficult the flow is to understand, I'm more concerned at keeping the flow no more unintuitive than it already has to be. I don't want it to be very difficult to switch to auditing a different member if the member we're currently auditing…

I was missing the `recursive` argument to `files_list_folder()`. Once I added that and set the path root to the one subdirectory, this started showing the right changed files and narrowed under the right scope. Instead of having to audit all of the given members, receiving the exact same list of changed files, and then…

Thank you for that. The development app is now a full-Dropbox type. It looks like changes will induce an event with one team and the ID of each team-member (there are three on this account): 2023-10-17T09:30:13 [2023-10-17 09:30:13,210 wew.handler_plugins. DEBUG] Received Dropbox event:2023-10-17T09:30:13…

Unfortunately, it's not the same. I've already tried. The API complains about the IDs not being the right length. Presumably because these are "member IDs" not account IDs. It looks like we need to use our access-token with the "DropboxTeam" class and then switch to the member using "as_user()".

Yes. The clients are a thin wrapper for the API, but, nonetheless, it's what we're using to access the API and the naming is intractable, at least to an unfamiliar user. The brief examples given on the website don't mention any of the team/business semantics. They only work for non-team accounts.

Presumably, user-wise, I'm looking for a method that load those member IDs. I think I saw a class called TeamDropbox or BusinessDropbox, but it doesn't seem to be mentioned in the current Sphinx documentation.

Well, there you go, then. Thank you. Standby.
