hello.

 

I use BOX CLI API.

CLI provides "create new folder"

 

> box folders:create xxxxxxx

 

But I cannot get new folder ID.

I have to upload that new folder to some files.

 

You you know

new created folders's id?

    Hi Ken

     

    When you create a folder via the Box cli, you should get a JSON payload returned that contains the ID of the newly created folder. Are you not seeing the returned JSON payload?

    mbp-011325:box-java-sandpit-app pchristensen$ box folders:create 0 'My test folder'

    {

        "type": "folder",

        "id": "128198201772",

       ....lots more json.....
