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.FileMeta...
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.
Thank you for your reply.
Is there any way for me to get to know when this is fixed ?

Dropbox StaffYes, I'll follow up here once I have an update on that. I can't offer a timeline for a fix though, so please use the workaround for now.

bffy_smmmers In browser contexts, you should access the file data using fileBlob like in this example. In node contexts, you should use fileBinary instead, like in this example.
thanks Greg-DB - this is in a node context! i will give this a try.
