list_folder does not contain property_group
Hi, I just want to ask why Property_Group is null even though I'm expecting some values. I'm using .Net sdk - list_folder method. Please see the the image below: Thanks!

8 years agoApologies, I was misinformed in my last reply.
The property groups aren't supposed to be returned in list_folder (they documentation only shows it because the FileMetadata type sample itself is re-used).
The intent is that they would only be returned by get_metadata when specifying `include_property_templates`. The feature is new though, and we haven't finished rolling it out to the non-alpha endpoint. That will be coming in the future, though I don't have a specific timeline right now.
Sorry again for the earlier inaccurate information!

Good news, we've finished rolling this functionality out to the non-alpha endpoints, and also actually added it to list_folder as well. The updated ListFolder and GetMetadata arguments are now available in the latest version of the .NET SDK:
