Error at 'Query files/folders by metadata' #552

Description of the issue

In the documentation for "Query files/folders by metadata", the POST method endpoint and the request example use different URLs.

This discrepancy may confuse developers. The POST method's URL is correct, I think.

Current content

The request example currently shows:

curl -i -X POST "https://api.box.com/2.0/files/12345" \
  -H "authorization: Bearer <ACCESS_TOKEN>" \
  -H "content-type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "from": "enterprise_123456.contractTemplate",
    "query": "amount >= :value",
    "query_params": {
      "value": 100
    },
    "fields": [
      "name",
      "amount"
    ]
  }'

Expected content

The request example should use the correct endpoint:

curl -i -X POST "https://api.box.com/2.0/metadata_queries/execute_read" \
  -H "authorization: Bearer <ACCESS_TOKEN>" \
  -H "content-type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "from": "enterprise_123456.contractTemplate",
    "query": "amount >= :value",
    "query_params": {
      "value": 100
    },
    "fields": [
      "name",
      "amount"
    ]
  }'
