The API currently only offers the ability to restore specific files, and not entire folders, but I'll be sure to pass this along as a feature request.

Hi Greg

Is this still the case? Is there no api for restoring a folder that has been deleted?

    patrikc This is still the case. The Dropbox API still doesn't offer functionality for restoring entire folders.
