# List folders

> List the folders in your active personal or team workspace.

List the folders in your active personal or team workspace.

```http theme={null}
POST https://api.voicecheap.ai/v1/actions/folders_list
```

## Authentication and permissions

<ParamField header="x-api-key" type="string" required>
  Send a VoiceCheap API key in this header. Authorization: Bearer with the same API key is also supported. OAuth access tokens are accepted only by
  MCP, not by this REST endpoint.
</ParamField>

Required permissions: `folders:read`.

An active paid subscription is required. Permissions do not change team roles, resource ownership, media credits, or plan limits.

## Parameters

Send an empty JSON object. This action has no input fields.

<Accordion title="Complete input schema">
  The JSON Schema below preserves the exact field names, nested types, defaults, bounds, and accepted values exposed by discovery. Additional cross-field rules are listed in the operation notes.

  ```json theme={null}
  {
    "type": "object",
    "properties": {},
    "additionalProperties": false
  }
  ```
</Accordion>

## Request examples

Replace example resource identifiers and media keys with values returned for your account. Keep the request identifier stable when retrying the same mutation.

<RequestExample>
  ```bash cURL theme={null}
  curl --request POST 'https://api.voicecheap.ai/v1/actions/folders_list' \
    --header "x-api-key: $VOICECHEAP_API_KEY" \
    --header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
    --data '{}'
  ```

  ```javascript JavaScript theme={null}
  const input = {};
  const response = await fetch('https://api.voicecheap.ai/v1/actions/folders_list', {
    method: 'POST',
    headers: {
      'x-api-key': process.env.VOICECHEAP_API_KEY,
      'Content-Type': 'application/json',
    },
    body: JSON.stringify(input),
  });
  const body = await response.json();
  if (!response.ok) throw new Error(body.code + ': ' + body.message);
  console.log(body);
  ```

  ```python Python theme={null}
  import os
  import requests

  response = requests.post(
      "https://api.voicecheap.ai/v1/actions/folders_list",
      headers={"x-api-key": os.environ["VOICECHEAP_API_KEY"]},
      json={},
      timeout=120,
  )
  body = response.json()
  if not response.ok:
      raise RuntimeError(f"{body.get('code')}: {body.get('message')}")
  print(body)
  ```
</RequestExample>

## Response

A successful first execution returns HTTP 200 with the operation result under data. A replay may return saved request state instead. The example shows one supported response, not every optional field.

Returns the folders available in the active workspace.

<ResponseExample>
  ```json HTTP 200 theme={null}
  {
    "data": {
      "folders": [
        {
          "folderId": "624f6bb2-e06f-4353-8d6a-33d15f34c5c2",
          "folderName": "Product videos"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
  ```
</ResponseExample>

## Result fields

| Field | Description |
| - | - |
| `data.folders` | Array of folder summaries; empty when no folders exist. |
| `data.folders[].folderId` | Folder identifier. |
| `data.folders[].folderName` | Folder display name. |

## Operation notes

* For a team member, the returned folders belong to the active team workspace.

## Usage

Each successful invocation consumes one monthly API/MCP call. Media credits and the operation's own generation allowances also apply.
