Folders

The Canva REST APIs for managing folders.

The folders endpoint enables you to create, edit, update, delete, and manage folders in a user’s Canva library.

Use folders to organize your library content in a structured way. Folder names can make the library more readable and searchable.

The top level of the user's content library is represented by the folder with the ID root. The user's Uploads folder is represented with the ID uploads.

For more information about Canva folders, see Canva concepts.
