409 error with list_shared_links and business account

Thanks for your patience while we looked into this. This issue was related to accessing the contents of accounts using the "team space" configuration in particular: https://help.dropbox.com/teams-admins/team-member/team-space-overview This should be working properly now.
Please refer to the updated documentation for more information on how to use this endpoint to list the shared links in different parts of the user's account: https://www.dropbox.com/developers/documentation/http/documentation#sharing-list_shared_links
By default, if you don't specify the 'Dropbox-API-Path-Root' header, the call will be rooted in the user's member folder only. If you also want to list shared links in the team space, you'll need to set the the 'Dropbox-API-Path-Root' header root mode as covered in the Namespace Guide: https://www.dropbox.com/developers/reference/namespace-guide

Hi - I am not specifying a path parameter, so as per the docs:
If no path is given, returns a list of all shared links for the current user.
Shouldn't this return everything for that current user?

Thanks for the information! Yes, if you're not supplying the path parameter at all, it should list all of the shared links for that account. Getting a 'path/not_found' in that case is unexpected, so we'll look into it.

Also, if you can share several 'X-Dropbox-Request-Id' response header values for these unexpected failures, that would be helpful. Thanks in advance!

Hi - great thanks. Here are a few headers as requested - they are all for the same account/request though as we only have the one test business account:
X-Dropbox-Request-Id: 4441335fbdddd5ccdff074a90fda0f1c X-Dropbox-Request-Id: adb429f3aaafb238c1ccf36347ed3ead X-Dropbox-Request-Id: f8153e46e014701e5e513629791a238c

Thanks! That's helpful. We're looking into it. I'll follow up here once I have an update on this.
