CreateFolder Method

Creates a new folder resource.

Syntax

dropbox.createFolder(newFolderPath, [callback])

Callback

The 'callback' parameter specifies a function which will be called when the operation completes (or an error is encountered). If the 'callback' parameter is not specified, then the method will block and will not return until the operation completes (or an error is encountered).

The callback for this method is defined as:

function(err, data){ }

'err' is the error that occurred. If there was no error, then 'err' is 'null'.

'data' is the value returned by the method.

'err' has 2 properties which hold detailed information:

err.code
err.message

Remarks

This method creates a new folder resource at the path NewFolderPath, and returns the Id of the newly-created folder resource.

NewFolderPath must be a folder path, or an Id-based relative folder path.

The RenameIfExists configuration setting may be enabled before calling this method to have the server automatically resolve naming conflicts.
