Permanently_Delete and List_Folder
Hi All I'm afraid i don't understand something here. Let's say i want to list all DELETED FOLDERS (or Files) form a path. I don't really now what's the best way to filter it, but i am using /li...
Thanks for writing this up.
There isn't a way to get to request only deleted folders, unfortunately, or a way to tell if a "deleted" entry was most recently for a file or folder, but I'll pass this along as a feature request.
And yes, it is expected that deleted entries are returned for permanently deleted items. (This is for the sake of correctness, in case the app was previously aware of the entry. The deleted entry is necessary to indicate that it was deleted and should be removed from the app's state.)
I'm afraid there isn't a good way to distinguish between the deleted and permanently deleted states. I'll send this feedback along to the team.

Hmm
Very strange in my mind, that permanently deleted are still to be showed, without distinction...
But ok thanks for the response..
