Dropbox Paper folder creation API

The Dropbox Paper API allows to list folders, but not to create a new one.

It seems to be possible to create a folder from the Android app, so I suppose

there is probably a private endpoint to do this.

Is there any plan to add a public API endpoint to create a Dropbox Paper folder?

 

Thanks.

    Thanks for the post! I can't say if or when the team may decide to implement this on the public API, but I'll pass this along as a feature request.

      Great, thank you!

      I think the use case should be quite obvious, but if it might help, in my case I am working on a client to sync paper documents and I have currently no way to create a locally added folder to Paper using the API.

        I'm not aware of current plans to implement this unfortunately.
