Dropbox AP: How to check a private folder when list_folder

How can I check if a folder is private folder when calling list_folder endpoint? Can it be done in the Dropbox .NET SDK?

  • By private folder do you mean the folder unique to an individual user in Team Spaces? See this guide here for information on team spaces vs team folders.
     
    If you are referring to the to unique folder for an individual these folders are always named as the individuals full name and cannot be renamed. So in example if we take the user "Tom Sawyer", he would have a folder named "Tom Sawyer".
