prabhat1999 Make sure you're supplying a valid path. For example, make sure your path doesn't end with a "/".

I'll ask the team to fix that up, but you can avoid that by supplying a properly formatted path. Update: this should now be properly returning a "path/malformed_path" error.
Also, as Здравко noted, when using the Python SDK, you need a Dropbox client object to make calls like files_tags_get. You can find the documentation for making a Dropbox object here, as well as examples here.
