Dropbox Polling Issue - caught in loop

Hi All,

 

I am currently experiencing a peculiar issue. I am retrieving and tracking the state of folders using files_list_folder, files_list_folder_continue and files_list_folder_longpoll. The process is as follows:

 

1) If a cursor does not exist - call files_list_folder to get the state of the folder

2) Loop over the entries, if the has_more flag is true, call files_list_folder_continue

3) Keep doing the above until the has_more flag is false,

4) Once the initial state is captured from the above steps, call files_list_folder_longpoll to listen for changes

 

This works across multiple folders. However, with a certain folder, the files_list_folder_continue prematurely flags has_more as false. It then goes into the longpoll loop and continuously breaks the poll, returning a folder metadata object with the initial folder path in the files_list_folder call. This loops continues.

 

The following has been checked:

- The same cursor is not being reused (new cursors are being generated)

- The problem can be reproduced in the python console

 

Is there any known issue that could cause this?
