chrismcfarling There are a few ways you can get the team space ID. For instance, you can get it from the 'root_info' returned by /2/users/get_current_account:
curl -X POST https://api.dropboxapi.com/2/users/get_current_account \ --header "Authorization: Bearer <redacted>" # { # <redacted> # "root_info": { # ".tag": "team", # "root_namespace_id": "1990815600", # "home_namespace_id": "1990696960", # "home_path": "/db test" # } # }
Or, if you're using a Dropbox Business API app with the team member file access permission, you can get it from /2/team/team_folder/list[/continue] or /2/team/namespaces/list[/continue]:
curl -X POST https://api.dropboxapi.com/2/team/team_folder/list \ --header "Authorization: Bearer <redacted>" \ --header "Content-Type: application/json" \ --data "{}" # { # "team_folders": [ # { # "team_folder_id": "1990815600", # "name": "<redacted>", # "status": { # ".tag": "active" # }, # "is_team_shared_dropbox": true, # "sync_setting": { # ".tag": "default" # }, # "content_sync_settings": [] # } # ], # <redacted> # }
curl -X POST https://api.dropboxapi.com/2/team/namespaces/list \ --header "Authorization: Bearer <redacted>" \ --header "Content-Type: application/json" \ --data "{}" # { # "namespaces": [ # { # "name": "<redacted>", # "namespace_id": "1990815600", # "namespace_type": { # ".tag": "team_folder" # } # }, # <redacted> # ], # <redacted> # }
I recommend reading the Namespace Guide as it goes over some of these topics.

6598198444 is the shared_folder_id of the WIP Folder folder, not the parent team folder. How do I get the parent team folder id?
