## Description

Create a folder (or a project, by supplying the optional project object) under a parent folder via POST /folders/{folderId}/folders. Supplying the 'project' prop switches creation into project mode; there is no separate create-project action. Use **List Folder ID Options** or **List Space ID Options** to obtain a parent folder ID. [See the documentation](https://developers.wrike.com/reference/postfolderssinglefolders)

## Props

| Prop | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| `parentFolderId` | `string` | Yes | The ID of the parent folder to create under (path param, e.g. IEAASDF3); use the account root folder ID to create at the root. Run List Folder ID Options to look up IDs. |
| `title` | `string` | Yes | Title of the new folder or project. Cannot be empty. |
| `description` | `string` | No | Description of the new folder or project. |
| `project` | `string` | No | JSON object enabling project mode. Example: {"status":"Green","startDate":"2026-07-23","endDate":"2026-09-30"}. Status is one of Red, OnHold, Yellow, Completed, Custom, Cancelled, Green. Omit to create a plain folder. |
| `shareds` | `string[]` | No | Contact IDs to share the folder with. Run List Contact ID Options to look up IDs. |
| `customFields` | `string` | No | JSON array of custom field objects. Example: [{"id":"IEAASDF3JQAAAAAA","value":"Q3"}]. Run List Custom Fields Keys Options to discover valid field IDs. |
