    I've updated to latest nuget version 6.36.0 in my project but I can still find this issue. Do you have any upcoming fix? I'm looping some already fetched data to get their metadata and it works for some of them but suddenly I get the error -> 'Error in call to API function "files/get_metadata": Unknown API function: /2/files/get_metadata'.

     

    Greetings

    Huezzer Thanks for the note! A fix was released, but it may not be fully rolled out yet. I'll check in on that.

    Hello,

     

    Do I understand correctly I do not need to do any change on my client code? I am going though my app error reports and discovered exactly the same message ("Unknown API function: /2/files/get_metadata"). The time of the report corresponds exactly to this post being published - 5 days ago. The NuGet version my app is using is 6.36.0, updated by November 16th. As I read it this was a problem on Dropbox API endpoint, it got fixed more or less the same day and there is no any action needed on the client code. Is that correct?

     

    Best regards

    PAST-E That's correct. No action is required on your part.
