It seems to be good now.
I have another problem that has appeared recently. The API call dbx.files_list_folder(path=dropbox_dir) does not give all files as before and I can see only some old files in the folder. I try to obtain a hash of existing files in order not to upload files that did not change.
Is there any possibility to obtain a hash of existing files in a folder by another call as dbx.files_list_folder(path=dropbox_dir) that started to hide some of my new files ?

2 years agoThe files_list_folder method is not guaranteed to return all files/folders in one call. You'll need to have both files_list_folder and files_list_folder_continue implemented to make sure you retrieve all the pages of entries in order to list all files/folders in a folder. Please refer to the documentation linked there for information on how to use that functionality.
