Once you have the folder ID, try a GET on /<folder id>/files.

Would it work to do a GET on me/skydrive/files and see if that folder name comes up in the list?

did you figure this out? i did a get with me/skydrive/files - i get information for example the id of the folder, and name, and count (number of files/folders in folder), but nothing where i can access those files or folders.Tuesday, May 8, 2012 11:04 PM

Seems this is the only way to do this.
Thanks!

Can't you just do it without the "files" and see what you get back? Looks like they both work but both are slow .5-1 seconds. Anything faster?Wednesday, May 21, 2014 7:29 PM
