PDF thumbnails & last modified for folders.
Hi ,
I'm using the dropbox sdk 3.0.3 for iOS. I read that you'll add last modified date for folders as a feature request. But this version doesn't provide it as far as I've looked. Did I miss anything or have you guys added it ? I'm using the list folder method and then calling the getmetadata method on IDs. Another query I have is how can I get pdf thumbnail/previews ? The extension list doesn't contain .pdf in the method descriptions. Is there a way or hack to get pdf thumbnails/previews ?
Thanks!
- Apologies for any confusion here. While we encourage developers to write in feature requests like this, we can't guarantee if or when any particular request would be implemented and released.
We are tracking the feature request for modified time for folders, but that hasn't been added and I don't have an update on if or when it would be.
The API doesn't offer a way to get thumbnails or previews for PDF files, but I'll be sure to pass this along as a feature request as well.
