Way to search by property value?

I am assigning a custom property value to a file. Is there a way to search by it? I don't see property groups in your search example for:

https://api.dropboxapi.com/2/files/search_v2

How do I make sure that my query only matches a property group value?

For searching by file property value, use /2/file_properties/properties/search instead: https://www.dropbox.com/developers/documentation/http/documentation#file_properties-properties-search

  Greg-DB Is there a way to limit search to a particular path of items?

    No, that functionality doesn't offer a path filter, but I'll pass this along as a feature request. I can't promise if or when that might be implemented though.
