Creating folder in SharePoint Library using Rest API

Question

I want to create a folder inside "Communications" document library in below site using rest api.

https://contoso.sharepoint.com/sites/SP

Can you please assist on how to do that?

Answer 1

You need to use the Folders endpoint something like below:

_spPageContextInfo.siteAbsoluteUrl + "/_api/Web/Folders/add('Communications/NewFolderName')"

Note: You need to pass the ServerRelativeUrl inside the add method.
