Can I raise the maximum /list_revisions limit past 100?
I see in some places (maybe referring to API v1?) that the revision limit is 1000, but it appears to be only 100 now. Is there any way to raise the limit higher than 100?

Dropbox Community ModeratorHi Justin C.17 and Alexandra F.1,
There has been a recent enhancement to the Dropbox API’s /2/files/list_revisions endpoint that may be helpful for your implementation. The endpoint now supports two new capabilities:
- before_rev (optional request parameter): This allows you to request revisions that occurred before a specific revision ID. It can be set using the rev of the last entry from a previous response. Currently it is only supported when using path mode in your request.
- has_more (response field): This boolean indicates whether additional revisions are available. If true, you can continue retrieving older revisions by making another call with the before_rev request parameter. If false, it means all available revisions have been returned, and there are no more entries to fetch.
These updates have improved the pagination functionality for file revision history. However, this functionality is not yet available in the Dropbox SDKs. To use the new capabilities, you’ll need to make direct HTTP requests to the /2/files/list_revisions endpoint.
If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to reach out to us.
Best regards,
