    <title>topic How to access (read/write) advanced file EXIF/metadata in the Dropbox JavaScript API? in Dropbox API Support &amp; Feedback</title>
    <link>https://www.dropboxforum.com/t5/Dropbox-API-Support-Feedback/How-to-access-read-write-advanced-file-EXIF-metadata-in-the/m-p/214212#M10957</link>
    <description>&lt;P&gt;How to access (read/write) advanced file metadata&amp;nbsp;in the Dropbox JavaScript API?&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;I'm talking about things like:&amp;nbsp;MacOS file tags.&amp;nbsp;I think they are stored in&amp;nbsp;the file's EXIF data.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;If I can retrieve a valid &lt;A href="https://developer.mozilla.org/en/docs/Web/API/Blob" target="_self"&gt;file-blob&lt;/A&gt;&amp;nbsp;from the JS API then maybe I can use a JS&amp;nbsp;plugin&amp;nbsp;that can extract EXIF data from a blob, like this &lt;A href="https://github.com/exif-js/exif-js" target="_self"&gt;plugin&lt;/A&gt;.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;STRONG&gt;But it would be best if I could retrieve advanced metadata native in the Javascript API.&lt;/STRONG&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;Any ideas?&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;[Cross-linking for reference:&amp;nbsp;&lt;A href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/43164908/how-to-access-read-write-advanced-file-exif-metadata-in-the-dropbox-javascript" target="_blank"&gt;https://stackoverflow.com/questions/43164908/how-to-access-read-write-advanced-file-exif-metadata-in-the-dropbox-javascript&lt;/A&gt; ]&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;The&amp;nbsp;Dropbox API unfortunately doesn't natively return&amp;nbsp;Mac OS file metadata/xattrs, or the full EXIF information for&amp;nbsp;a file,&amp;nbsp;but I'll be sure to pass these along as a feature requests. The&amp;nbsp;Dropbox API currently only natively returns a few pieces of basic media information in &lt;A href="https://dropbox.github.io/dropbox-sdk-js/global.html#FilesFileMetadata__anchor" target="_self"&gt;FilesFileMetadata&lt;/A&gt;.media_info, e.g., if you set &lt;A href="https://dropbox.github.io/dropbox-sdk-js/global.html#FilesGetMetadataArg" target="_self"&gt;FilesGetMetadataArg&lt;/A&gt;.include_media_info to true when calling &lt;A href="https://dropbox.github.io/dropbox-sdk-js/Dropbox.html#filesGetMetadata__anchor" target="_self"&gt;filesGetMetadata&lt;/A&gt;&amp;nbsp;or &lt;A href="https://dropbox.github.io/dropbox-sdk-js/Dropbox.html#filesListFolder__anchor" target="_self"&gt;filesListFolder&lt;/A&gt;/&lt;A href="https://dropbox.github.io/dropbox-sdk-js/Dropbox.html#filesListFolderContinue__anchor" target="_self"&gt;filesListFolderContinue&lt;/A&gt;.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;To get any other metadata embedded in the file content, you'll need to download the file content and parse it out client-side.&lt;/P&gt;</description>
