    <description>&lt;P&gt;Trying to figure out why I am getting deleted items returned when my original get_latest_cursor input is:&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;{&lt;BR /&gt;"include_deleted": false,&lt;BR /&gt;"include_has_explicit_shared_members": false,&lt;BR /&gt;"include_media_info": false,&lt;BR /&gt;"include_mounted_folders": true,&lt;BR /&gt;"include_non_downloadable_files": true,&lt;BR /&gt;"path": "/path",&lt;BR /&gt;"recursive": true,&lt;BR /&gt;"limit": 100&lt;BR /&gt;}&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Output is:&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;PRE&gt;  "entries": [
                {
                    ".tag": "deleted",
                    "name": "NEB_SHERMAN_MJ_022.jpg",
                    "path_lower": "/path/filename_022.jpg",
                    "path_display": "/path/FILENAME_022.jpg"
                }&lt;/PRE&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;&lt;a href="https://www.dropboxforum.com/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/1730711"&gt;@millticket&lt;/a&gt;, Gooood note! &lt;img class="lia-deferred-image lia-image-emoji" src="https://www.dropboxforum.com/html/@41457EF40051AFF130FDBFE21B496926/emoticons/1f609.png" alt=":winking_face:" title=":winking_face:" /&gt;&lt;img class="lia-deferred-image lia-image-emoji" src="https://www.dropboxforum.com/html/@488936AC5FA64023548E32631AFD9803/emoticons/1f600.png" alt=":grinning_face:" title=":grinning_face:" /&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Actually "include_deleted" here is meaningless. The meaning is when you list some folder (using &lt;A title="Starts returning the contents of a folder" href="https://www.dropbox.com/developers/documentation/http/documentation#files-list_folder" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;/2/files/list_folder&lt;/A&gt;) to be possible ignore already deleted items. When you're going to trace particular change (a change that happens in your path), to be deleted particular file, it has not been deleted before that. So to be able trace it there is no way already deleted to be ignored, otherwise you would skip some deletion of real files. This parameter seems to be just a copy, nothing more (a dummy copy - dis-functional and meaningless).&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;If there was possible to skip such deleted files, that would be a bug. &lt;img class="lia-deferred-image lia-image-emoji" src="https://www.dropboxforum.com/html/@FBF7D2AB59A0D6E861EBF6A36F93B7E2/emoticons/1f642.png" alt=":slightly_smiling_face:" title=":slightly_smiling_face:" /&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;PS: By the way, default value of "include_deleted" is false.&lt;/P&gt;</description>
