Swift API v2 and filesGetMetadata with a path of "/"
I am calling this from within an Application Context.
So "/" should be my App directory.
Two problems:
1) I get a server error reposponse:
{"error_summary": "path/malformed_path", "error": {".tag": "path", "path": {".tag": "malformed_path"}}}
2) When I get this error ... The Swift api fails to deserialize "malformed_path"
Called from Files.GetMetadataErrorSerializer:deserialize when it tries to deserialize the "path"

I also get the error when I try to call filesListFolder with a path of "/"

The root path in API v2 is an empty string (").
That solved the access problem. Does not make any sense to me ...
There is still an error handling problem which causes a fatal exit.
I downloaded a couple of days ago using Cocoa Pods with tag '0.7'

Thanks! I can reproduce this. We'll look into it.

To close the loop here, this was fixed in version 0.7.1.
