Hi Team
Is there possibility to listen for changes in only specific paths in dropbox through webhooks?
Thanks in Advance.
Hi
If iam not wrong the path in delta response entries is the path which has changed??
It will be very helpful if anyone posts sample json returned value from webhook notification using delta???
Thanks
The result from "list_folder/continue" on call in webhook is same like in any other call in any other condition. There is JSON result example, also. In a real situation result will be changed entries - all files and/or folders. As a example - you can find can find current last cursor/iterator for you account using:
curl -X POST https://api.dropboxapi.com/2/files/list_folder/get_latest_cursor --header "Authorization: Bearer <your token>" --header "Content-Type: application/json" --data "{\"path\": \"\",\"recursive\": true}"
Change something inside your account content and call following:
curl -X POST https://api.dropboxapi.com/2/files/list_folder/continue --header "Authorization: Bearer <your token>" --header "Content-Type: application/json" --data "{\"cursor\": \"<the cursor from previous call>\"}" | jq '.entries[] | {name, id, path_display}'
Result will point just made changes, if any (little bit filtered for improved readability). Without the filter, "cursor" could be used next time. This same result is the delta!
