Note also though that if you are connected to the correct account, for the item to be found in the account and the path to be returned, the call will need to be using a relevant root containing the item. So for instance, if the item is in the team space, you'll need to set the "Dropbox-API-Path-Root" header to set the root to the team space. Refer to the Team Files Guide for information on how to do so.

The /2/files/move_v2 endpoint does support file IDs though; you can supply a file ID in the "from_path" parameter.
