Python SDK dbx_team.team_members_get_info_v2 need to list EMPLID, PERSISTENT ID, EXTERNAL ID,, etc.
Python SDK for Dropbox:
I am able to get the team member id but I also need to list given name, surname, external id, persistent id, and email.
See below code sample.
For results I get class List and result(0] gives me the below as well.
for info I get MembersGetInfoItemV2('member_info', TeamMemberInfoV2(profile=TeamMemberProfile(account_id=DATA REMOVED...
------ Code Snippet -------
user = dropbox.team.UserSelectorArg.email(email)
result = dbx_team.team_members_get_info_v2([user])
print(result._members_info_value)
for info in result.members_info:
if info.is_member_info():
DBMID_NEW_USER= info.get_member_info().profile.team_member_id
print(info)
The following all work for me:
print(info.get_member_info().profile.name) print(info.get_member_info().profile.name.given_name) print(info.get_member_info().profile.name.surname) print(info.get_member_info().profile.name.display_name)
Note though that the values won't be set if the account doesn't have a name set yet (e.g., if it's a new invite).
If something isn't working correctly for you, feel free to share the code you're running and the full error/output you get.

The 'profile' seen in this code/output is a TeamMemberProfile, which is based on MemberProfile, so you can access whatever of those documented fields you need there, just like you currently for do for 'team_member_id'.
So, for example, just like you access ...'.profile.team_member_id', you can access ...'.profile.external_id ', etc.
