Unable to retrieve folder revisions through /metadata using rev parameter.
When I attempt to retrieve a folder's specific revision through /metadata I get back an error indicating that the rev is invalid or outdated.
The documentation is worded such that this seems to be ...
It looks like you're using Dropbox API v1 which doesn't have the IDs. Only API v2 has IDs for files (it's a new feature): https://www.dropbox.com/developers/documentation/http/documentation#files-get_metadata
My suggestion would be to switch to the new API v2 if possible. If not, there may be other ways to make a best guess as to if a folder has been renamed, such as a new folder having the same contents as a previous folder. However this would only be a guess.
