Dropbox API Support & Feedback
Find help with the Dropbox API from other developers.
I get a list of the user's files and then filter it to show only the music files. But I also want to see subfolders. How should I set up my filter for this? Could you help me.
My function where I get the list of files looks like this:
I also want to be able to enter a subfolder, as I understand it, for this I need to insert the path to the subfolder in path: "/ someFolder". But how can I get this path?
@roggerCorrea It looks like fileList would be an array, perhaps initialized like 'var fileList = [Any]()', or maybe more ideally 'var fileList = [Files.Metadata]()'.
Your cast is failing because you're attempting to cast the entire array of Metadata, that is, your 'response', which is the listFolderResult?.entries, instead of individual Metadata entries.
You should instead first iterate over the entries to get each entry, like the 'for entry in result.entries {' line in the original post shows.
Hi Greg, thank you so much. I'm new to Swift and still figuring out many things.
This was of great help!
