Dropbox StaffThat's correct, the ListMountableFoldersAsync method in the .NET SDK returns a ListFoldersResult with Entries being a list of SharedFolderMetadata. There's a SharedFolderMetadata.Name property that you can use to get the shared folder name.
May be I have not explained the issue properly.
After getting the list I can filter it with name, but question is... I don't want to get entire list, I just want to pass the foldername as param instead of sharefolderId, so that I can fetch the sharefolderId from metadata, otherwise I have to run loop and filter with foldername then get the sharefolderId.
Also is there anyway to check if the folder is already mounted.
Thanks
Hi parvezalam,
I understand what you are asking for, but there is no other way, as far as I know.

...If you take a look on documentation:
Unmounted shared folders can be identified by the absence of SharedFolderMetadata.path_lower.I.e. a folder has been mounted when there is local path (local to the context account) within the metadata. 😉
Hope this helps.
Yes for checking the mounted or not I have checked PathLower Properties.
