    Rolana There isn't a documented guarantee on this for /2/files/get_thumbnail_batch, but changes should be reflected more or less immediately.

Hey Rolana, thanks for using Dropbox and welcome to the Community!

Edits you apply on your Dropbox files should be syncing immediately on your connected devices and our website.

Let me know if you have anything else to ask!

      Hi Rolana, the thumbnails should be updated more or less immediately, however, I'll move your thread to the API section for a more precise answer.
