}Create app folder
Creates a folder for builder apps or agents.
You can change your own personal folders. Workspace folders need the editor role or higher, and any editor can change any workspace folder. A workspace holds up to 500 folders of both kinds, counting every member’s personal folders, and a folder can have at most 20 folders above it. Folder names don’t have to be unique, so retrying a create that timed out can leave you with two folders.
This is limited to 60 requests per minute, shared with the other endpoints that change folders. A signed-in session has its own limit, and every personal access token for the workspace shares one. Some workspaces have a different limit.
