Get video duration from Dropbox Chooser

Hi all,

I'm trying to figure out how I can retrieve video duration from Chooser's API after video was selected?

In case if this is not possible maybe I can get access token from Dropbox Chooser and then pass it to dropbox-js-sdk and call method FilesGetMetadata ? Any ideas how to do this?

    The Chooser doesn't return media information like this, but I'll be sure to pass this along as a feature request. 

     

    There also isn't a way to get an access token from the Chooser.
