How to get the time from folder in Dropbox?

Hello Dropboxers,

 

I am using files_list_folder() and files_list_folder_continue() to get a list of files and folders of a given directory. This works and the time of a file is in server_modified in FileMetadata. But I want to know the time of a folder and I cannot find any information in FolderMetadata. How to get this info?

 

Kind Regards,

Chris

    The Dropbox API unfortunately doesn't return the 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.
