      <description>&lt;P&gt;Hi guys!&lt;BR /&gt;I'm trying to write code to create a program that will download and upload files and folders from/to Dropbox automatically.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;When I need to download a single file there's no problem using X.files.downloadAsync("path", await X.GetContentAsByteArrayAsync), but when I need to download an entire folder I don't know how to do it, I can't use the same instruction...&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Someone know how to solve this issue?&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;If you want to download an entire folder using the .NET SDK, you have two options:&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;OL&gt;
&lt;LI&gt;Use the&amp;nbsp;&lt;A href="https://dropbox.github.io/dropbox-sdk-dotnet/html/M_Dropbox_Api_Files_Routes_FilesUserRoutes_DownloadAsync_1.htm" target="_self"&gt;DownloadAsync&lt;/A&gt; method, calling once per file inside the folder. You can use the&amp;nbsp;&lt;A href="https://dropbox.github.io/dropbox-sdk-dotnet/html/M_Dropbox_Api_Files_Routes_FilesUserRoutes_ListFolderAsync_1.htm" target="_self"&gt;ListFolderAsync&lt;/A&gt; and &lt;A href="https://dropbox.github.io/dropbox-sdk-dotnet/html/M_Dropbox_Api_Files_Routes_FilesUserRoutes_ListFolderContinueAsync_1.htm" target="_self"&gt;ListFolderContinueAsync&lt;/A&gt; methods to get the file listing.&lt;/LI&gt;
&lt;LI&gt;Use the&amp;nbsp;&lt;A href="https://dropbox.github.io/dropbox-sdk-dotnet/html/M_Dropbox_Api_Files_Routes_FilesUserRoutes_DownloadZipAsync_1.htm" target="_self"&gt;DownloadZipAsync&lt;/A&gt;&amp;nbsp;method to download the entire folder, as long as its contents are under the documented size and file count limits. With this method, you'd then need to unzip the resulting data to access the contents. The&amp;nbsp;Dropbox SDK itself doesn't offer an unzipping method, so you may need a system method or a different library to do that.&lt;/LI&gt;
&lt;/OL&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Hi &lt;a href="https://www.dropboxforum.com/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/1843231"&gt;@erich_e&lt;/a&gt;,&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;In both cases (downloading a regular file of any kind or a folder as a zip) there is stream that may be use as you would like. Of course you may redirect/copy this stream to another file stream that refers to file named as you like. Is there something that prevent you do so?&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Good luck.&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;&lt;a href="https://www.dropboxforum.com/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/1843231"&gt;@erich_e&lt;/a&gt; As Здравко said, you can get the requested data (either individual file or zip of a folder) using the returned stream (or string, or byte array). Specifically, check out the documentation for &lt;A href="https://dropbox.github.io/dropbox-sdk-dotnet/gh-pages/obj/api/Dropbox.Api.Files.Routes.FilesUserRoutes.html#Dropbox_Api_Files_Routes_FilesUserRoutes_DownloadZipAsync_System_String_" target="_blank"&gt;DownloadZipAsync&lt;/A&gt; and for &lt;A href="https://dropbox.github.io/dropbox-sdk-dotnet/gh-pages/obj/api/Dropbox.Api.Stone.IDownloadResponse-1.html" target="_blank"&gt;the IDownloadResponse Interface&lt;/A&gt; in particular for the three methods of accessing the data. There's also &lt;A href="https://github.com/dropbox/dropbox-sdk-dotnet/blob/main/dropbox-sdk-dotnet/Examples/SimpleTest/Program.cs#L432" target="_blank"&gt;an example of using one of them here&lt;/A&gt;.&lt;/P&gt;</description>
