Simma The team is looking into this, but has requested the value of the "folder" variable from the "dbx.files_download_zip_to_file(target, folder)" line that fails for reference. Can you please share that?
Feel free to open an API ticket if you want to share privately.
Thanks in advance!
The one that fails is the download of the first folder "Simma Gershenson", my personal folders.
