Can we disable notifications for when a folder is shared?

Hi Team,
Our end users are currently receiving an email notification when we share a dropbox folder with them. Attaching a sample email here. Is there a way to disable this notification.We have custom emails triggered for this usecase and would like to refrain from sending this default email

    @Sheeja, Did you try set "quiet" parameter to true when you add a file/folder member? 😉

      Thanks for the solution.Currently i'm using the following java sdk method to add folder: 

      dbxclient.sharing().addFolderMember(sharedFolderId, selectors)

      I couldn't find the quiet parameter here as part of the input. Is there a way to set this parameter here or any other way using sdk
