Searching using search_v2 not searching in all directory
When i use the api search_v2 to search for a file by file name it do search only on the APP Folder that was created by api, and it does not search in the whole Dropbox.
Any solution for this?
Thanks to Здравко for helping troubleshoot this.
amjadkhalil If you're still unable to get the expected results, we can help look into this specifically. In that case, you can open an API ticket here and share the following details:
- the registered name of the API app for the access token you're using
- the name and version number of the platform and SDK/library you are using, if any
- the steps to reproduce the issue, including relevant code snippet(s) and parameter value(s), but don't include any access or refresh token(s)
- the affected account ID(s)
- the output you are currently getting
- a sample of the expected output
Thank you for your reply. I noticed that there is new option where you choose the whole dropbox application but it is still not retriving all results . it retrive only the files or data created by user.
I did try by genrate bearer and by oauth2 flow.Am still getting only the files or data created by user.
Hello again amjadkhalil,
I have no idea what exactly you have tried, but as far as I know there is no way to change the type of the application once created, unfortunately. Would be fine such an option to be added at some point in the future by Dropbox team. Anyway, it's missing now. That's why I told you that have to recreate your application (anew - wipe out the existing, or no, and create it again with more care what you will select)!!! Changing permissions only isn't enough!
Hope now it's a bit more clear.
What am trying to say is i did create another app with the whole dropbox application.But search retrive only files created by me not other users.
🙂 Of course, any application does list/access only files granted by available token(s). Have the "other users", that you mean, granted your application access to their accounts? 😉
No they have not.
