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. 😉

Dennyw Thanks for contacting us. I'm sorry to hear this change caught you unaware. We emailed developers using this functionality about this deprecation earlier this year, but it sounds like that unfortunately did not make it to you.
In any case, we appreciate you taking the time to share this feedback with us. I'm sending it along to the team now.
Unfortunately though, we do not currently have a batch way for retrieving media metadata, nor does the team have plans for one.
As for a workaround, I'm afraid the only one I can offer is to call /2/files/get_metadata (getMetadata in the Java SDK) for each file for which you need the extracted media metadata, like Здравко mentioned. I understand that this isn't as performant in your case, so I will highlight this with the team.
Apologies I don't have better news for you!
Hello,
Greg-DB
Thank you very much for your message. I did the Dropbox implementation mid this year, that might be the reason I didn't know this. And I didn't really read the java doc during the implementation...
Right now I have around 300 users using that data provider. And interestingly I see by far less new users beginning with the 2nd December, which makes sense.
Please consider re-activating that if you dont want to loose me as a dev customer. My users wont be happy, but ok, they can still switch to google photos, google drive or onedrive...
I'm sorry and thank you for your help.
