Is there any api to know whether a file contains restricted content?
Hi,
Is there any api to know whether a file contains restricted content before downloading api is hit?
Thanks in advance,
Bharath

No, unfortunately the Dropbox API doesn't offer a way to check this ahead of time, but I'll pass this along as a feature request. I can't promise if or when that might be implemented though.
