Folders

Folders are the organization structure for files in Workspaces. You can create, update, download, and delete folders. You can also list all items in a folder.

Workspaces contain a special folder which is referred to as the root folder, which you can read. This folder contains all items found in the root of a Workspace.

Create a Folder

POST https://ws-api.onehub.com/workspaces/:workspace_id/folders/:folder_id/folders

Creates a folder nested within the folder specified via :folder_id in the Workspace specified via :workspace_id. To create a folder at the root-level of the Workspace you can either pass the root_folder_id or post to the /folders endpoint without specifying a :folder_id.

Path Parameters

Description

:workspace_id

integer

The unique identifier of the folder you would like to nest the folder within. If a :folder_id is not provided, the API will assume that you want to create the folder at the root-level.
