Upload entire folder with JS SDK?

Hello,

I'm trying to upload multiple files from one folder to Dropbox using the JS SDK, and at the moment I am using a batch upload, looping through all the files one by one, and using filesUploadSessionStart, which is taking very long. Is there a way to just upload the contents of the entire folder to dropbox?

    No, unfortunately there isn't a way to upload an entire folder at once; you'll need to upload each file as you described. I'll pass this along as a feature request, but I can't promise if or when that might be implemented.
