Type

command

Summary

A way to get a cursor for the folder's state.

Syntax

Description

Unlike dropboxListFolder, dropboxListFolderGetLatestCursor doesn't return any entries. This endpoint is for app which only needs to know about new files and modifications and doesn't need to know about files that already exist in Dropbox. Use the returned cursor with dropboxListFolderContinue to obtain the entries.

If the callback parameter is not empty the request will be asynchronus and when complete the callback will be sent to the object that accessed the API. The callback will be sent with three parameters:

• The request ID which will be the value of the it variable after calling the command
• The HTTP response code
• The data returned which will be the same data as documented for the it variable in a synchronous request.
