how to check team space support for user-linked apps
I've read the document and have questions about supporting team spaces, specifically for user-linked apps. https://dropbox.tech/developers/api-updates-to-better-support-team-spaces 1. For user-l...
1. With a user-linked app, to determine if an account has a team space, you can use the 'distinct_member_home' feature on the /2/users/features/get_values endpoint. (The 'root_info.root_namespace_id' value from /2/users/get_current_account alone does not indicate the existence of a team space, as every account has some root namespace ID.)
2. That's correct, the 'team_shared_dropbox' feature values only indicate if the account is on a team with a shared team space in particular, so it cannot be used to detect if the account is on a team with a team space of any type.
If you have a user-linked app and want to check if the account has a team space (shared or not), use the above mentioned 'distinct_member_home' feature on the /2/users/features/get_values endpoint.
