Copy Batch v2

POST

https://api.dropboxapi.com/2/files/copy_batch_v2

Copy multiple files or folders to different locations at once in the user’s Dropbox. This route will replace copy_batch. The main difference is this route will return status for each entry, while copy_batch raises failure if any entry fails. This route will either finish synchronously, or return a job ID and do the async copy job in background. Please use copy_batch/check:2 to check the job status.

Required scope: files.content.write
