Provides detailed information about all files stored in a user's Dropbox, including metadata such as size, path, and last modified time.

Table Specific Information

The following scopes are required to access this view: files.metadata.read

Select

The cmdlet uses the Dropbox API to process search criteria that refer to the Id, FilePath, or ParentId columns. The cmdlet processes other filters client-side within the cmdlet. For example, the following queries are processed server side.

SELECT * FROM Files WHERE Id = 'id:a4ayc_80_OEAAAAAAAAAYa'

SELECT * FROM Files WHERE ParentId = 'id:a4aad_40_OEACHSBDLKAYa'

SELECT * FROM Files WHERE FilePath = '/TestFolder/test.png'

Note that the FilePath filter will only return data for one specific file, since the FilePath is an absolute path. If you want to get data for all the files underneath a specified folder path, filter using ParentId. ParentId is a unique identifier for the containing folder. You can only retrieve the files that are located directly in this folder, not in its subfolders.

Delete

The cmdlet uses the Dropbox API to process search criteria that refer to the Id column in order to perform a DELETE operation on a file. For example, the following queries are processed server side:

DELETE FROM Files WHERE Id = 'id:a4aad_40_OEACHSBDLKAYa'

DELETE FROM Files WHERE Id IN ('id:a4aad_40_OEACHSBDLKAYa', 'id:a4aad_40_OEACHSB3234234')
