shared app directory, exists but inaccessible to my app
Created an app, linked to a specific directory. Lets call it acme.
Create acme directory on my dropbox which I shared and placed some more directories and files within it.
Able to authenticate a...
No, the app folder had more than 1000 links within it created with the created_shared_link_with_settings API call, in subdirectories within the top directory named. So the app names a directory acme for example and within acme I have acmeA, acmeB and acmeC subdirectories; each of which contains X links to say photoA1, photoA2, photoA3 etc etc.
I make calls to https://api.dropboxapi.com/2/sharing/create_shared_link_with_settings for each photo I want to share? It all works if I make the app one that has access to all my folders? but when I use an app that names the folder at the top of the tree "acme" in this example, it lists nothing as you see?
Are you saying that if I name a specific folder with an app I don't need to actually share the links within it; they will be accessible with files-list_folder? I am missing something here aren't I?
