Hi Tech Dev Oldsmar ,
Thank you for providing this information! If your account team configuration is utilizing our updated team space functionality, the expected value for account.RootInfo.IsTeam will be false, as the account will not belong to a team with a shared space.

Here is the cleaned up code that now works after the switch-over update (early 2024) in re Teams/Shared Spaces:
public static async Task<ListFolderResult> ListFolderInTeamSpace(DropboxClient client, string path)
{
try
{
var account = await client.Users.GetCurrentAccountAsync();
return await client.Files.ListFolderAsync(path, client.WithPathRoot(new PathRoot.Root(account.RootInfo.RootNamespaceId)));
}
catch (PathRootException ex)
{
Console.WriteLine("The user's root namespace ID has changed to {0}", ex.ErrorResponse.AsInvalidRoot.Value);
return new ListFolderResult();
}
}
