Just to be clear, are you asking how to perform this search on the Dropbox website in your browser, or are you using an app or other programing to do the search? I ask because you've posted this in the API section, which is for people that are programming their own application to connect to Dropbox.
I am creating a custom program to search the folder with specific tags
If you want, once listing folders as denoted by Greg, you may check all folders for available tags and filter them accordingly (on your own).
prabhat1999, There is a way. 😉 In your case, try search with query "#testingtag". It's something undocumented.
Hope this helps.
