Folder not returned in through search API
Are there any cases where a team folder would not be returned through the search API (filesSearchV2), but the same folder would be listed in the search results on Dropbox web? (When searching by the same query.)
ariod The Dropbox website may be using different options/capabilities. If something on the API isn't working as expected for you, please share the specific steps/code to reproduce the issue and the unexpected output, as well as an example of what you do expect, so we can take a look. Feel free to open a ticket here if you'd prefer to share privately. Thanks!

Did you properly set the call' root? If not set, the root defaults to logged user' (team member) private folder and everything that can be done (including search) is restricted to there.
