Using the nodejs sdk.


I can read a folder with `serviceAccountClient.folders.get(folderId)`, but cannot create / edit one. Nor can I invite users.

My app has app + enterprise access enabled. It has write permissions on all files and folders, it can generate user access tokens, and it has been manually authorized since the last changes have been made.

I would share the app credentials if needed.
Please advise

    Hi, 

    Are you getting a specific error? Yes, it would help if you could share the client_id!

    Thanks,
