Dropbox API Support & Feedback
Find help with the Dropbox API from other developers.
Hello,
I hope you're all doing well. I've come across an issue while working with the Dropbox API, specifically related to content hash values, and I'd like to seek your insights on this matter.
List Folder and Thumbnail Batch Endpoints: When using the "List Folder" and "Thumbnail Batch" endpoints, I observed that the content hash value returned for a specific file remains consistent. This behavior is as expected and aligns with the file's content.
Search V2 Endpoint: However, when I use the "Search V2" endpoint to search for the same file, the content hash value it returns is different from what I obtained through the "List Folder" and "Thumbnail Batch" endpoints. Furthermore, it appears that all files' content hash values retrieved from the "Search V2" endpoint are the same.
These discrepancies are causing some challenges in maintaining data consistency within my application. I'm wondering if there might be any insights or explanations for this behavior. Specifically:
I'd appreciate any guidance or information that could help me better understand and work with these discrepancies. Thank you for your assistance!

This should be fixed now. Thanks again for the report!
