Listing shared files
I'm looking for a way to list individual files that a user is sharing with specific users (not shared links). I can list shared folders with the /sharing/list_folders route, but there doesn't seem to be a corresponding /sharing/list_files route.
Ultimately, I'd like to be able to get the shared files for a particular user and feed them into the /sharing/list_file_members route to determine who the files are shared with.
rbchapman Thanks for following up. It sounds like what you want is to set 'include_has_explicit_shared_members: true' when calling /2/files/list_folder, so you can get 'has_explicit_shared_members' for the files in the results (and then call /2/sharing/list_file_members as needed).

Thanks, Scott. According to the docs, that route returns "a list of all files shared with current user." I'm looking for the list of files the user owns and has shared with specific individuals.
