@Greg-DB  Thanks alot for that elaborate answer !
So for non business accounts i have nothing to worry about because we have only one user.
But for business account there may be option to not use team space configuration and if that the case does the team/get_events endpoint will return all events in the account?

@sarshavs Yes, /2/team_log/get_events is supported for teams with the team space configuration.

 

If you're interested in event types from the "file_operations" category though, note that those are only available to some Business plans, per the documentation:

Note that the file_operations category and & analogous paper events are not available on all Dropbox Business plans. Use features/get_values to check for this feature.

The list_folder functionality can be used by any account though.

Need more support?
