I have run this API https://api.dropboxapi.com/2/files/list_folder and it gave me cursor value, to get more files. 

 

Then I used https://api.dropboxapi.com/2/files/list_folder/continue and and cursor value in body to get rest of files details however I get error: 

 

Error in call to API function "files/list_folder/continue": Invalid "cursor" parameter: this cursor is for a different user.

 

list_folder/continue do not support Dropbox-API-Select-Admin or Dropbox-API-Select-User. I have read somewhere there is need to link it to account it, however no reference how to do it. Please give solution how to receive output from files/list_folder/continue API. I am trying it through cURL using http documentation provided here: https://www.dropbox.com/developers/documentation/http/documentation

@InderjeetSingh, I see you also wrote in to support with this, so we'll look into it and follow up with you there soon.

Thank you. Issue fixed after using Bearer token method, rather than basic Auth method. 

Need more support?
