Get parent team folder from name space
Hey,
When I am using https://www.dropbox.com/developers/documentation/http/documentation#team_log-get_events-continue to get events I got the path without the team folder and the minimum shared parent folder namespace witch could be a inner folder inside the team folder.
from your API I understand that teams may have multiple team folders. so I need to know the parent team folder of the file.
is there a quick way to get a file's/ folder's team folder?
Thanks.
Thanks for confirming! Unfortunately, no, I can't think of a more direct or faster way to query that information.

I'm not sure I understand your specific scenario here, but it sounds like you may want to use the /2/sharing/get_folder_metadata endpoint. You could supply the team or shared folder ID as the shared_folder_id, which would give you the 'parent_shared_folder_id' value. You could then call again with that ID to get the information for that parent folder.
If that isn't what you're looking for, please share a sample so I can take a closer look for your use case, e.g., so I can see what particular event you're working from. Thanks!
Thank's for the response.
You have understood me right :)
I have already thought about the solution you suggested but I wondered if there is a simpler, not recursive way to do that (Just get the parent team_folder_id form file_id or ns_id in one call)?
