## TL;DR

A contributor removed the clone() call and the fix shipped in v4.0.9, confirmed by the maintainer. So update to v4.0.9 or newer.

## Steps

1. Yes, this was a real bug in the SDK: `rpc-request.js` cloned the response body, which blew up on large payloads (around 2MB and up) and broke `filesListFolderContinue` for big folders. A contributor removed the `clone()` call and the fix shipped in v4.0.9, confirmed by the maintainer. So update to v4.0.9 or newer. If you are pinned to an older version, the workaround is exactly what you found: patch `src/rpc-request.js` to remove the `clone()` call.

## When to use

You are seeing this: filesListFolderContinue in dropbox-sdk-js fails whenever the response is about 2MB or larger. Use this skill when you run into "dropbox-sdk-js `filesListFolderContinue` fails on responses larger than ~2MB".

## When not to use

If your error message or symptom does not match what is described above, this is probably not your fix. Search for your exact error text instead of forcing this one to fit.

## Versions

Versions mentioned in the source: v4.0.9. If you are on something much newer or older, the details may have shifted.

## Why this happens

The original report does not dig into a root cause. It documents the symptom and the fix that resolved it.
