add members to a file/folder
Hi,
I am using the dropbox-sdk-java, via Maven, and i unable to find a way to add members to a file(and later to a folder).
Could you provide with some pointers?
I think i have to use
DbxRawClientV2
DbxUserSharingRequests
But for one, i can not itialize DbxRawClientV2, if I try
DbxRequestConfig config = new DbxRequestConfig("example/DbApi"); DbxRawClientV2 rawClient=new DbxRawClientV2(config, getToken(AuthorizationFile));
I am getting
Cannot instantiate the type DbxRawClientV2
Thanks
You don't need to use DbxRawClientV2. You should instead use DbxClientV2, as shown in the examples, e.g., here.
Calling addFileMember would look like this:
DbxRequestConfig config = new DbxRequestConfig("example"); DbxClientV2 client = new DbxClientV2(config, ACCESS_TOKEN); List<MemberSelector> newMembers = new ArrayList<MemberSelector>(); MemberSelector newMember = MemberSelector.email("dbapitesting@gmail.com"); newMembers.add(newMember); List<FileMemberActionResult> fileMemberActionResults = client.sharing().addFileMember("/test.txt", newMembers); System.out.print(fileMemberActionResults);
