API V2 unable to list folder using file id

API V2 unable to list folder using file id

I would like to be able to list the contents of a folder using the file id instead of the path.

Is this in the works?

Thanks!

Thanks for the feedback Vladimir! I don't have a timeline to offer right now unfortunately.

The Dropbox API now supports file IDs for list_folder:

https://www.dropbox.com/developers/documentation/http/documentation#files-list_folder

If you're using an official SDK, there will also be a corresponding method for this endpoint.
Need more support?
