Shared folder between two premium account
I'm using java SDK 4.0.1 and the sharing function doesn't work correctly with a premium account dropbox. From the original account, my folder is correctly shared with the user, but he can't see the ...

To reproduce :
Have two "standard" paying accounts
Use the java 4.0.1 SDK
Now just use the 'AddMember' method and pass the email of the dropbox premium account you want to add to the folder.
On dropbox the folder is marked as being shared with this premium account but the user has no access to it.
The same operation works between a paid account and a free account but not between a paid account and a paid account
Example code for sharing :
public void shareFolder(UserEntity user, String folderApiId, List<String> emails) throws DbxException {
DbxClientV2 client = getUserDropboxAccess(user);
SharedFolderMetadata folderMetadata = getSharedFolderMetadata(client, folderApiId);
List<AddMember> members = emails.stream().map(email -> new AddMember(MemberSelector.email(email), AccessLevel.EDITOR)).collect(Collectors.toList());
client.sharing().addFolderMemberBuilder(folderMetadata.getSharedFolderId(), members).withQuiet(true).start();
}

Thanks for following up. To clarify though, can you show me what you're seeing exactly when you say "but the user has no access to it"? I'll need to make sure I understand exactly what result you're seeing and where to make sure I can reproduce the same thing and investigate this.

On the main account, used to share documents, we can see that the folder is shared with the user xxx@yyy.com
However, the user xxx@yyy.com does not see the folder in his space.

Hi infra,
In spite the user xxx@yyy.com can't see the folder in his space, can the same user find it out in his shared folder list here? Check this out. 😉
Hope this helps.

No sorry, the folder is not visible in the "share" section of the account xxx@yyy.com
