The Dropbox API doesn't return the total size or created/modified date for folders, but I'll pass this along as a feature request. I can't promise if or when that might be implemented though.

Well, that is odd/shame for a filehosting service API to not return the folder size/modified date. Also i am not sure if the request you will forward will be accepted as this feature request has been in the queue for more than 6 Years now , see here https://github.com/BenExile/Dropbox/issues/61

And to get the modified date i have to do the same process on the files and sort them by date to find the modified date of the folder.
