Folder → Create
AI-generatedSummary
Create a new folder in Microsoft OneDrive at a specified path or with a specified name, optionally inside a given parent folder.
Inputs
- Name (required) — The name or path of the folder to create. If a path with multiple segments is provided, each segment is created sequentially as a subfolder.
- Options — Additional options including 'Parent Folder ID' to specify the ID of an existing folder under which the new folder(s) should be created.
Output shape
a list containing the metadata of the created folder(s), with each folder represented as a JSON object including its ID and other details.
If creating nested folders using a path, multiple folders are created sequentially and the output corresponds to the last created folder's information. If any folder creation fails, the process stops and returns the response of the last attempt.
Examples
Example 1: Create a folder named 'Projects' at root level
Set 'Name' to 'Projects' and leave 'Parent Folder ID' empty.
Example 2: Create nested folders '/Projects/2024/Reports' inside an existing folder by specifying its ID
Set 'Name' to '/Projects/2024/Reports' and provide the existing folder ID in 'Parent Folder ID' option.
