Create, Retrieve, Update, and Delete Folders

This page contains information about creating, retrieving, updating, and deleting folders in your account via the SOAP API.

Why Create, Retrieve, Update, and Delete Folders

You can use the SOAP API to interact with new or existing folders in your Marketing Cloud account. Use these folders to better organize the portfolio items, programs, or other assets in your account. This process allows you to maintain the tight integration between your development environment and Marketing Cloud.

How to Create, Retrieve, Update, and Delete Folders

Use the sample code below as a model for your own API calls. You can specify whether the folder is active, editable, or can support child folders using Boolean operators outlined in the sample code.

Sample .NET Code

Create a Folder

The Create call requires the name of the folder, the description of the folder, and the parent folder in which to place the new folder.

By default, the Create call for a DataFolder object sets the IsEditable and AllowChildren properties to false.

private void CreateDataFolder()
{
    SoapClient framework2 = new SoapClient();
    framework2.ClientCredentials.UserName.UserName = "xxx";
    framework2.ClientCredentials.UserName.Password = "xxx";
    String requestID;
    String status;
    DataFolder datafolder = new DataFolder();
    datafolder.Name = "API Created Folder";
    datafolder.Description = "API Created Folder";
    datafolder.ParentFolder = new DataFolder();
    datafolder.ParentFolder.ID = 12345; // This is the ID of the 'my emails' folder that you can get from doing a retrieve 
    datafolder.ParentFolder.IDSpecified = true;
    datafolder.ContentType = "email";
    CreateResult[] cresults = framework2.Create(new CreateOptions(), new APIObject[] { datafolder }, out requestID, out status);
    foreach (CreateResult result in cresults)
    {
        Console.WriteLine(result.StatusMessage);
    }
    Console.WriteLine(requestID + ": " + status);
}

Retrieve a Folder with Filter by Type

private void RetrieveDataFolder(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    SoapClient framework = new SoapClient();
    framework.ClientCredentials.UserName.UserName = "xxx";
    framework.ClientCredentials.UserName.Password = "xxx";
    String requestID;
    String status;
    APIObject[] results;
    SimpleFilterPart sfp = new SimpleFilterPart();
    sfp.Property = "ContentType";
    sfp.SimpleOperator = SimpleOperators.equals;
    sfp.Value = new string[] { "email" };
    RetrieveRequest rr = new RetrieveRequest();
    rr.ObjectType = "DataFolder";
    rr.Properties = new string[] { "ID", "Name"};
    rr.Filter = sfp;
    status = framework.Retrieve(rr, out requestID, out results);
    Console.WriteLine(status);
    foreach (DataFolder df in results) 
    {
        Console.WriteLine("Folder Name: " + df.Name);
        Console.WriteLine("Folder ID: " + df.ID);
    }

}

Sample PHP Code

Retrieve Folder

<?php
    echo '<pre>';
    $path = $_SERVER[DOCUMENT_ROOT].'/00 Includes/';
    require($path . 'exacttarget_soap_client.php');
$wsdl = 'https://YOUR_SUBDOMAIN.soap.marketingcloudapis.com/etframework.wsdl';
try{
    /* Create the Soap Client */
    $client = new Marketing CloudSoapClient($wsdl, array('trace'=>1));
    /* Set username and password here */
    $client->username = 'XXXXX';
    $client->password = 'XXXXX';
    $rr = new Marketing Cloud_RetrieveRequest();
    $rr->ObjectType = 'DataFolder';
    //Set the properties to return
    $props = array('ID', 'Name');
    $rr->Properties = $props;
    //Setup account filtering, to look for a given account MID
    $filterPart = new Marketing Cloud_SimpleFilterPart();
    $filterPart->Property = 'ContentType';
    $values = array('Email');
    $filterPart->Value = $values;
    $filterPart->SimpleOperator = Marketing Cloud_SimpleOperators::equals;
    //Encode the SOAP package
    $filterPart = new SoapVar($filterPart, SOAP_ENC_OBJECT,'SimpleFilterPart', "http://exacttarget.com/wsdl/partnerAPI");
    //Set the filter to NULL to return all MIDs, otherwise set to filter object
    //$rr->Filter = NULL;
    $rr->Filter = $filterPart;
    //Setup and execute request
    $rrm = new Marketing Cloud_RetrieveRequestMsg();
    $rrm->RetrieveRequest = $rr;
    $results = $client->Retrieve($rrm);
    print_r($results);
} catch (SoapFault $e) {
    /* output the resulting SoapFault upon an error */
    var_dump($e);
}
    echo '</pre>';
