Folder samples

Basics

On most methods, you'll see the parameter named "fldId". The value of this parameter can be some valid folder UUID.

Example of fldId:

Using UUID -> "f123a950-0329-4d62-8328-0ff500fd42db"

Suggested code sample

First, you must create the webservice object:

OKMWebservices ws = OKMWebservicesFactory.newInstance(host);

Then should login using the method "login". You can access the "login" method from webservice object "ws" as is shown below:

ws.login(user, password);

Once you are logged with the webservices the session is keep in the webservice Object. Then you can use the other API method

At this point you can use all the Folder methods from "folder" class as is shown below:

ws.folder.createFolder("1be884f4-5758-4985-94d1-f18bfe004db8", "test");
