Archive Folders older than 1 week

Is it possible to archive folders and content older than say 1 week ? Using python.

I have a working folder /Dropbox/Work/Images and I want to archive stuff that is older than a week from this specific folder /Images/ ? And doing this automatically ?

Thanks !

Dropbox doesn't offer a way to perform operations automatically based on the age of an item, but you can use the API to write code to perform whatever operations you want, whenever desired.

For example, with the Dropbox Python SDK, you can list files/folders using files_list_folder and files_list_folder_continue, and you can move items using files_move_v2 or delete items using files_delete_v2.

I recommend reading the File Access Guide for information on interacting with files via the Dropbox API.
