V1 getDelta() vs. V2 listFolder()
The old getDelta() returns everything for an "App Folder", meaning the app folder and all its subfolders. It appears that the new listFolder/Continue() isn't really equivalent in that way.

I'm assuming then, that I would need to make 1 more call to get the remaining 1400 files. However, no matter how…
