GetThumbnail Method

Gets a thumbnail image.

Syntax

dropbox.getThumbnail([callback])

Callback

The 'callback' parameter specifies a function which will be called when the operation completes (or an error is encountered). If the 'callback' parameter is not specified, then the method will block and will not return until the operation completes (or an error is encountered).

The callback for this method is defined as:

function(err){ }

'err' is the error that occurred. If there was no error, then 'err' is 'null'.

'err' has 2 properties which hold detailed information:

err.code
err.message

Remarks

This method retrieves a thumbnail image for the resource specified by ResourcePath. This is only applicable to images (.jpg, .jpeg, .png, .tiff, .tif, .gif and .bmp). Before calling this method ThumbnailFormat and ThumbnailSize may be set to specify the format and size of the thumbnail. If the original image is over 20 MB in size no thumbnail will be generated.

Example:

dropbox.ResourcePath = "/My Photos/tree.jpg";
dropbox.LocalFile = "../../tree_thumb.jpg";
dropbox.ThumbnailSize = DropboxThumbnailSizes.dts128x128;
dropbox.GetThumbnail();
