include_media_info - "This parameter will no longer have an effect starting December 2, 2019"
Hello my friends,
can we please discuss that topic? Right now I'm unable to retrieve the Date Taken, Longitude or Latitude for my Photos. It seems like Dropbox removed that possibility and I didn't...

Only workaround - use of get_metadata for all desired files. 😉

Nice, let me try that out, but that will send much more requests to the Dropbox servers. I'm open to do it, but I don't think that the Dropbox Team should have done that!
EDIT: It works, but it's crazy slow! (Which is normal, I know...) I'm calling that API now x thausend times...

Unfortunately, that's it. I fully agree with you. Let's hope Dropbox will revert or improve the feature somehow.
- Dennyw5 years agoHelpful | Level 5Thank you for your help! 100% of the open issue are with at least one reply, so I hope to get a positive message from a developer on github. Have a nice day!
