      <description>&lt;P&gt;The API doesn't distinguish between files and folders in DeletedMetadata, but I'll be sure to pass this along as a feature request.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;For reference though, a deleted entry just indicates that whatever was at that path was deleted, and at different points in time, a&amp;nbsp;single path could have been either&amp;nbsp;a file and folder. You may want to refer to whatever previous metadata you&amp;nbsp;received for that path to see what was there.&lt;/P&gt;</description>
