Filter users based on email address
Hello! Is there an API supporting filtering functionality? We're specifically looking for a way to filter users given an email address.
I just saw a similar thread on files/folders, and the response was no. Maybe it's a feature request you're working on already? Please confirm.
I'm not sure I understand your request. What endpoint are you using? For example, /2/team/members/list doesn't support filtering for a particular email address, but if you have a specific email address, you can look up the member using /2/team/members/get_info.

- Excellent! Thank you. This API is as good as GETting a User.
I always wondered why all of the operations of Dropbox APIs are POST-based. e.g. filtering or GETting a user could've been /2/team/members/<member-email-address> or /2/team/members$filter?email=<email-address> (which OData recommends)- Greg-DBGreat, I'm glad to hear that helps.
