Hi Faulk,
By default the point assumed to be root for API access is users home folder (i.e. your Faulk folder), not the account root. If you want to change this root to any other namespace (including to account root), you need to use Dropbox-API-Path-Root header. 😉
Hope this helps.

Faulk Здравко is right; it sounds like you want to access the "team space". You can certainly do so from any account that has access to the team space, but by default, API calls operate in the "member folder" of the connected account, not the team space. You can configure API calls to operate in the team space instead though. To do so, you'll need to set the "Dropbox-API-Path-Root" header. You can find information on this in the Team Files Guide.
