Python API
I'm working with Python & API v2 I need the following information: If I have a shared folder with several users, is it possible to obtain a record of the users who have visited or downloaded the fi...

It looks like you have the right basic idea, but there are a few things to note:
- You have 'none' instead of 'None'.
- You can filter by category, which in this case would be 'dropbox.team_log.EventCategory.file_operations'.
- You can filter by time, which can be good as without a time filter you may have to parse through more events than desired.
- You need to check GetTeamEventsResult.has_more, and call back to team_log_get_events_continue if it's True.
So, for example, to look for file_download events from the past week, that might look like:
import datetime import dropbox access_token = '...' dbx_team = dropbox.DropboxTeam(access_token) account_id = 'dbid:...' time_range = dropbox.team_common.TimeRange( start_time=datetime.datetime.now() - datetime.timedelta(days=7)) def handle_events(events): print("Processing %s events..." % len(events)) for event in events: if event.event_type.is_file_download(): print(event) result = dbx_team.team_log_get_events( limit=1000, account_id=account_id, time=time_range, category=dropbox.team_log.EventCategory.file_operations) handle_events(result.events) while result.has_more: result = dbx_team.team_log_get_events_continue(result.cursor) handle_events(result.events)

2. Also no, it's not possible to filter to a specific event type, but we'll consider this a feature request as well.

Perfect.
1- In this case you are filtering by (account_id) and getting the events of a specific user, but we can do the same filtering for example by a folder and getting the events of the users in this path?
2- In the result I see this event EventType(u'file_download', FileDownloadType(description=u'Downloaded files and/or folders')), could it be programmed so that it only prints this type of events?
Thanks again, I hope I'm not asking a lot of questions
