Get a list of Namespaces a single user has access to
Hey, I've been interacting with a number of end points and I'm trying to rely upon the permissions dropbox has defined in RBAC when knowing whether a user can use a number of files returned from a s...
Thanks Greg for the thorough reply.
The /2/sharing/list_folders and /2/sharing/list_folders/continue seems to be along the lines of what I am after. However, when playing around with the endpoint it if in the scenario with Folder A all contents within in are shared by extension because A is shared so A/B/C etc under the same namespace. Is it possible to have the endpoint/an endpoint return only a list of parent shared folders based upon their access so something like:
- User has access to all of A so in the response it is just A not A/B, A/C etc
- but also in the scenario where the user has access to A/B and A/C but not A it returns A/B and A/C
if that makes sense. Basically my concern is wanting to do this on the fly getting every nested folder back in the response based upon the large data set I have will become a performance issue having to call the `continue` endpoint an unreasonable amount of times, so just trying to see if I can thin out the information of some nested folder information that can be implied? Or is this how it currently works?
