    <description>&lt;P&gt;The API doesn't offer the ability to download with a wildcard like this. You'll need to call once per file with the exact file path.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;You can get the file names using &lt;A href="https://dropbox-sdk-python.readthedocs.io/en/latest/moduledoc.html#dropbox.dropbox.Dropbox.files_list_folder" target="_blank"&gt;files_list_folder&lt;/A&gt; and &lt;A href="https://dropbox-sdk-python.readthedocs.io/en/latest/moduledoc.html#dropbox.dropbox.Dropbox.files_list_folder_continue" target="_blank"&gt;files_list_folder_continue&lt;/A&gt;.&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Hi,&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;is there a way to download a file with a random number in the filename?&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Something like&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;PRE&gt;metadata = dbx.files_download_to_file(downfile, '/%s*' % testfile)&lt;/PRE&gt;
&lt;P&gt;All the files a in the following format&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;knownstring--randomnumber.txt&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;</description>
