Shared Folder Limit on Team Account
Hi Team, I am working on Team Account for development majorly on sharing folder and shared folders.
Code for sharing folder

1. No, the count for this limit is only referring to shared folders, not unshared parent folders.
2. The Dropbox API doesn't offer a way to just retrieve the current count with the Python SDK, but I'll pass this along as a feature request. I can't promise if or when that might be implemented though. You can use sharing_list_folders and sharing_list_folders_continue to list and count shared folders as needed however.

Hi Greg-DB
Thanks for response.
I am working on team account and at root I have a folder named AppsTest (It has a shared_folder_id , using files_get_metadata api) so it it a shared folder?
In it I have another folder named Cases (AppsTest/Cases), it doesn't have any shared folder id, i.e. it is not shared folder?
1. So my first question is shared folder are only those which has shared_folder_id?
2. As you can see in screenshot Cases (no shared_folder_id), Beta (has Shared_folder_id), 2023 (not shared_folder_id) next Discharge has (shared_folder_id)
so for api limit of 1500 from where count is started?
is it from AppsTest or where?
Please reply asap
Thanks and Regards
