    Hchauhan The Dropbox API does not currently support directly listing the contents of a deleted folder, but I'll pass this along as a feature request. I can't promise if or when that might be implemented though. To work around that, you would need to either use the metadata you had previously retrieved from the API before the deletion, or list the items using a non-deleted parent folder, or recreate the deleted folder and then list the deleted contents.
