Dropbox api. not worked foreach (var item in list.Entries.Where(i => i.IsFolder))
I want to use the dropbox api. I use the code from this page - https://www.dropbox.com/developers/documentation/dotnet#tutorial .
But in my Visual.Studio throws an error - CS1061 "IList<Metadata>"...

Hi saharin,
Hm..🤔 It's something strange - seems like a problem of your environment (Visual Studio in the case).
Try something like following simpler code:
async Task ListRootFolder(DropboxClient dbx)
{
var list = await dbx.Files.ListFolderAsync(string.Empty);
foreach (var item in list.Entries)
{
Console.WriteLine("{0} {1,10} {2}", item.IsFolder ? "D->" : "F->",
item.IsFolder ? "" : item.AsFile.Size.ToString(), item.Name);
}
}Does this show the same (or some other) error?

saharin Can you clarify what you mean when you say "This ok"? Have you resolved this issue?

Still, no, it does not work, the code that was thrown to me does not cause errors, but the list of cloud storage files does not print.

saharin, That's definitely related to your environment and not to Dropbox API/SDK. You should investigate further what's wrong there. 🤷

It could be wrong expectation. Depending on your environment settings, the console, where output prints out, can stay open after your program finishes or can close immediately (and that's why you cannot see anything). Check this and tune it or run your application (after build) in independent terminal, so it will stay open and you able to see your application result. 😉
Good luck.
