What is the root folder id?
I use the explorer and even I type / or let it empty, I could not get the metadata of the root folder?
Is anything I type wrong?
To refer to the root folder, use an empty string as the path.
If you're using API v2, I believe get_metadata won't accept the root folder (as it doesn't really have metadata).
