Share_folder endpoint returning too_many_mounts/tree_size_exceeded
An operation that worked perfectly fine before now returns the following error: makeDropboxRequest: https://api.dropboxapi.com/2/sharing/share_folder Error making Dropbox request: too_many_mounts/t...
So what is the intended solution if we want to create shared folders and assign groups to them? Permanently deleting folders is not an option. We create 3-4 folders per project and we do around 1500 projects a year, every folder needs to be a shared folder otherwise we can not assign groups to access them based on the project requirements.

Dropbox StaffUnfortunately there isn't an option for removing or bypassing this limit; to avoid this error, you'd need to bring the number below the limit, or use a different folder tree/account.
