- In order to list the contents of a folder, such as a team folder, you should use /2/files/list_folder[/continue]:

Dropbox Staffmsullybos Yes, the /2/files/list_folder endpoint supports namespace ID paths in the 'path' parameter, so you can use the team_folder_id for a team folder as the 'path' value, like "ns:123456789", where 123456789 is the team_folder_id. (For information on how to interact with a team space though, refer to the Team Files Guide.)
