files/get_metadata returns path not found
All get_metadata calls are returning a path not found error for anything (files or folders) from a business account, but works fine with anything inside the personal folder. I can access the folders ...
Can you share the relevant code and output so we can take a look and advise? (Feel free to share privately by opening an API ticket if you'd prefer.) Be sure to redact the access token though.
Based on your description however, it sounds like you might be running in to an issue because you're not specifying the right "root" in the team for that item. The structure of Business teams is a little more complicated than that of individual accounts. I recommend reviewing the Namespace Guide for more information.
Hi Greg,
Thanks for the response! I'll go ahead and open a ticket. From reading through the namespace guide, I don't think that's part of the issue since we're referencing items by id (id: XXXXXXX ), but I could be wrong there.
To provide a little more information from the ticket, specifying a namespace is still necessary even when referencing files by ID.
The namespace isn't available from the file choose response (where I was getting the file ID), but can be adjusted at the client level by getting the namespaces associated with the user in the Java SDK like so
DbxClientV2 client = new DbxClientV2(requestConfig, token); client = client.withPathRoot(PathRoot.root(client.users().getCurrentAccount().getRootInfo().getRootNamespaceId()));
The root namespace seems like it always works no matter if the file or user is part of a team, so I've opted to always use the root over the default home.
