Are you sure you have both the right path, as well as the right namespace (in the "Dropbox-Api-Path-Root" header)? I can't see the full values from your screenshot.

Hi, thank you for the update. But I tried the /2/sharing/create_shared_link_with_settings endpoint and it only gives the error "path/not_found/" I tried with several files and folders. I know the paths are correct since I use the same paths for other API calls.
Maybe this is a bug on your end?

Hi Greg thanks for the reply. You were right in pointing out the Dropbox-Api-Path-Root, as it is only specified for 1 folder in the root of the team folders.
This was the error, i had to run my tests inside that folder. I added a screenshot in case someone runs into the same error.
thank you
