Hi TheWhistler1967,
As far as I can see, you are trying use your account id (starts "dbid") as a team member id (starts "dbmid"). 🤫 Select the correct identifier. 😉

Ok so it seems this is a DropboxTeams thing, so maybe this is closer:
dbx_t = dropbox.DropboxTeam(TOKEN)
dbx_t_as_user = dbx_t.as_user("dbid:<string>")
response = dbx_t_as_user.files_list_folder('')
But a new error:
'Error in call to API function "files/list_folder": Invalid select user id format'
