change final static private AccessType ACCESS_TYPE = AccessType.APP_FOLDER; to final static private AccessType ACCESS_TYPE = AccessType.DROPBOX;

if will create the folder that can share to other user

    This is the right idea. App folder apps don't work with shared folders and app folders can't be shared, so you'll need to use Full Dropbox access if you want to interact with shared folders. However, note that the API does not currently have any calls for shared folders, so the user will need to manage them manually. – Greg Aug 08 '12 at 21:02
