Product: Visual Search Use case: Organize your indexed videos into folders and scope uploads/searches to a folder Host: https://api.memories.ai/serve/api/v1 Auth: Authorization: sk-mavi-... (no Bearer prefix)

Create a new folder in your account. The returned folder_id can then be passed to Upload Video (folder_id), Move Videos, or the list/search endpoints to scope them to this folder.

Prerequisites

You have created a memories.ai API key.

Request Example

response = requests.post(
    "https://api.memories.ai/serve/api/v1/folders/create",
    headers=headers,
    data={"name": "my-project"},
)
print(response.json())

cURL

curl -X POST "https://api.memories.ai/serve/api/v1/folders/create" \
  -H "Authorization: sk-mavi-..." \
  -d "name=my-project"

Parameters

{
    "code": "0000",
    "msg": "success",
    "data": {
        "folder_id": 671631448308117504,
