Dropbox Core API file owner

Hi everyone,

first time around here. I'm trying to access the last person who modified or uploaded a particular file in a dropbox folder.

Is that possible?

When I say person, i mean the name that usually appears next to a file in any dropbox folder.

Thank you very much

It sounds like you're looking for the modifier field returned by /metadata:

Hey! That's it! I didn't find it, but I've got a problem. I'm working on an iOS project and new with dropboxAPI, so I don't have a clue how and where I can set the list property to true, and how to access all that JSON information.

Thank you very much!

Are you using the iOS Core SDK? This field isn't currently implemented in that unfortunately, but I'll be sure to pass this along as a request. Note that the iOS Core SDK is open source though, so you can modify it if/as desired.

Hmm what a pity. By saying that it's an open source, do you mean I can manage to get the modifier changing a bit of code?

Yes, you can add the source directly (it's included in the download) and make whatever changes you need.
