Upload folder structure (with files in them) via API

Is it possible to upload folder structures (with files in them) via API?

  • Hi Ha Nguyen Danh, this endpoint is only for creating a tree structure of folders only.

    You will have to then subsequently populate the folders with the files you want, using the usual Add File API. I believe this folder structure API endpoint was added because of the Workflow Action "Add Folder" where you can add a shallow folder structure as part of the action.

    It's a shame that we can't upload a ZIP file containing a "repository" of folders and files, leveraging the same process that the front-end makes possible through the "Add zipped files" option.
