Python SDK remove inherited members from child folder

Hi,

 

I'm trying to remove inherited members from a folder with structure "Team Folder/Shared Folder/Inherited Folder" but they do not have shared_folder_id of their own to target.

 

I can do this from the UI by clicking the share button and remove "Members of Shared Folder".

 

Is there a method to do this by path or folder ID from the Python SDK?

    Nevermind figured it out!

     

    If anyone else has this problem:

     

    dbx.sharing_share_folder(path) adds a share id and keeps current members.
