so this means that we need to periodically check manually by sending the hit to `delete_batch/check` API endpoint.
Isnt there any way that we can use webhook against the delete_batch which should automatically submit the payload to the given URL?
This feature can be useful.

7 years agobuttflattery Yes, when the API returns an async job like this, you'll need to use the relevant endpoint to periodically check the status of the job until it's done.
The Dropbox API doesn't offer webhook functionality for this, or any other way to be automatically notified of async job status changes, but I'll pass this along as a feature request. I can't promise if or when that might be implemented though.
