Get thumbnail with TypeScript
Hello,
I'm trying to get the thumbnail of an image with the js sdk implemented in a TypeScript application.
I'm using th method fileGetThumbnail() it return a Promise<DropboxTypes.files.FileMetaData> so once the promise is resolve I have an object of the type FileMetaData.
This is fine but the FileMetaData object does not have a fileBlob object in it but when I'm doing a console.log(response), I do have a fileBlob in it...
How am I supposed to get the thumbnail in my application without the blob ?
Thank you for any help
Using the "fileBlob" property is the right way to get the thumbnail data. Currently, you'll need to access it like this though: https://github.com/dropbox/dropbox-sdk-js/blob/master/examples/typescript/download/download.ts#L10
Apologies this isn't better documented or included in the TypeScript definitions! I'll ask the team to fix that up.
