Add id and .tag fields to DeletedMetadata in the API
When calling /listfolder/continue after deleting a file or folder, DeletedMetadata is passed.
However, this information does not include an id field.
If there are multiple deletions and additions in a short period of time with the same name, the client using the API will inevitably delete and re-add the file or folder because there is no ID.
If ID information is included, it would be easier to determine and process the deletion based on the internally cached ID information.
Also, please add .tag information to help determine whether the deletion was a file or folder.
Thank you
Hi 오부경
We appreciate the feedback! I'll pass this along as a feature request. I can't promise if or when that might be implemented though.
