"users/get_current_account": Invalid select user id format error.

I have a test program and it works fine in Windows 11. When I ported the code into Centos 7 and ran it, it returned an error:

 

com.dropbox.core.BadRequestException: Error in call to API function "users/get_current_account": Invalid select user id format

 

I am using Java 8 and Dropbox SDK version 4.0.1. This is portion of the code that causes the problem:

 

static List<EventLog> getFilesFromMember(List<EventLog> fileLog,
String teamMemberId,
String teamMemberEmail,
String ownerName) throws DbxException
{
    DbxClientV2 dbxClient = dbxTeamClient.asMember(teamMemberId);
    FullAccount acc = dbxClient.users().getCurrentAccount(); //Work fine in Windows 11 but fails in Centos 7 server.
    String rootNs = acc.getRootInfo().getRootNamespaceId();
    dbxClient = dbxClient.withPathRoot(PathRoot.namespaceId(rootNs));
    ListFolderResult fileRes = dbxClient.files().listFolderBuilder("").withRecursive(true).start();

 

 

Any suggestion to fix it?

 

Thank you.

    Your suggestion to check the teamMemberId is very helpful. I did make some change after I ported the code that messed up the ID. 

     

    Thank you.

    trithanhnguyen, Are you sure your 'teamMemberId' parameter carries correct value? Print it out and check the place where/how you get it from and is on that place something 'strange'. 😉

      I did print the teamMemberId to the log in the Centos server and checked it. It is correct string ID (I compare it with the one from the Windows 11 program).

        Better perform this call on 'dbxTeamClient' context. So you wouldn't need 'broken; parameter (it's meaningless actually). 😉
