Thumbnails in list_folder

Thumbnails in list_folder

Hey guys! new to the API so sorry for stupid questions... I'm wondering if I can do something. first off, here's my folder structure:

>HD Content

   >011_Blue

     >001_randombluename.mp4

     >002_randombluename.mp4

   >012_Green

     >001_randomgreenname.mp4

     >002_randomgreenname.mp4

   >013_Red

     >001_randomredname.mp4

     >002_randomredname.mp4

so it possible to do an HTTP request to get all the folder information using list_folder from the "HD Content" folder and pull the thumbnail of the first file in each of those folders? hope that makes sense. thanks for the help!

While the Dropbox API does offer an endpoint for getting thumbnails, that endpoint unfortunately does not support .mp4 files. I'll pass this along as a feature request though.
