Trouble running /2/files/list_folder in as App Authenticated

Probably I'm getting crazy, but following command:

curl -X POST https://api.dropboxapi.com/2/files/list_folder \
     -H "Content-Type: application/json" -u "<APP KEY>:<APP SECRET>" \
     --data '{"path":"","shared_link":{"url":"<shared link to folder>"}}'

 ... doesn't work anymore. I think, it used to work. 🤔 What's going on?

It doesn't return even an error (I mean body) if we ignore the HTTP 500 code! Just nothing - literally empty response body, no just without entries. When I intentionally make some mistake (wrong secret or something else) 'correct' error gets back, but when everything is correct, nothing...

Any thoughts?

 

PS: x-dropbox-request-id: 778c7e7bbe7e4d5b8d3ce3e97ac6e7e1, if can be of some help. In addition, when the same call is user authenticated, everything is fine.
