Preview the file data of files inside a zip file.

Hi 

Im currently listing the contents of a folder using the /files/list_folder end point. I need to be able to list the contents of a zip folder. What might be the best endpoint for this?

    Currently the API is not able to list the contents inside of a zip file. I'll note this as a feature request with our team.
