How to get Modifier of File/Folder V2 Api .net

How do you get the modifier of a file/folder using the V2 Api.

Before the MetaData object had an attribute of "User modifier" but in the V2 Api I cannot seem to find this information.

Is there a way to get it?

    It sounds like you're looking for FileMetadata.SharingInfo.ModifiedBy. Hope this helps!

    The API doesn't offer ModifiedBy for the folder itself, but I'll be sure to pass this along as a feature request.
