Request example

Set ALF_API_URL to https://dashboard.applaunchflow.com/api/v1 and ALF_API_KEY to your key. Replace sample IDs with your project’s values. Use a new ALF_REQUEST_ID for each new operation.

cURL

curl --request POST \
  --url "$ALF_API_URL/assets/folders" \
  --header "Authorization: Bearer $ALF_API_KEY" \
  --header "Content-Type: application/json" \
  --header "Idempotency-Key: $ALF_REQUEST_ID" \
  --data '{
  "projectId": "11111111-1111-4111-8111-111111111111",
  "action": "create_folder"
}'

This example shows the request structure. Some editor operations require additional query parameters that are not yet described in OpenAPI.
