Has_more value from list_folder enpoint
I have been getting files from "//api.dropboxapi.com/2/files/list_folder" endpoint but I never get any "has_more" value is true from the response, even with a folder with more than 300 items. 1.What...
1. This is subject to change, so don't rely on this number, but it's generally 1000-2000 files.
2. Yes, even when has_more=false, it's best to store the returned cursor returned by /2/files/list_folder. You can then call /2/files/list_folder/continue later once changes do occur, in order to get information on what (and only what) changed. You can use /2/files/list_folder/longpoll or webhooks to find out when changes occur.
