I’m afraid that currently, it is not possible to get more information about the folder apart from its ID. You can use the Folder ID in queries that create or duplicate boards, allowing you to create boards or duplicate boards into the same folder as another board in your account.

I realize this could have been more powerful with the option to get folder names, but I’m afraid that isn’t currently something our API can provide as an option.

Hi Alex thanks for the answer.

Why it can provide that ?

Sorry, just to make sure, did you mean to ask “Why it can’t provide the folder name currently?”

This is something we need to implement on our end., as mentioned.

@AlexSavchuk sorry, I though you mean that this is something you will never provide and not currently.

Thanks

Ah, sorry for any confusion coming from me here 🙂

We’d definitely love to implement this at some point in the future, I’m glad to confirm that.
