webhooks notification
we have reviced the notification json format, but how can get actual file chnages.
When you first store the access tokens and cursors in your app (e.g., in your database), you should record which Dropbox account ID each one belongs to. (For any given access token, you can use /2/users/get_current_account to check the account ID, which just needs to be done once each.)
Then, when you get the webhook notification, you can use the account ID to look up the corresponding access token and cursor.

The webhook notification payload will tell you which account has had changes, so you can then use the corresponding access token for that account to call /2/files/list_folder[/continue] (or corresponding methods in whatever SDK/library you're using, if any) to see what exactly changed.
We are using from postman https://api.dropboxapi.com/2/files/list_folder/get_latest_cursor

To clarify, are you calling /2/files/list_folder/get_latest_cursor before or after you received the webhook notification?
The order should look like this:
- Call /2/files/list_folder/get_latest_cursor to get the latest cursor for the account using the access token for the account and save the returned cursor.
- Make changes in the account.
- Receive the webhook notification from Dropbox for the account.
- Call /2/files/list_folder/continue using the cursor received in step 1 and the same access token.
