Creation of external context child folder via API
Yasmin Musthafa
Tyro
in API
If we need to create sub folders under the external module folder, do we still use this provision API?https://support.panopto.com/resource/APIDocumentation/Help/html/ac809dd2-ef9b-041b-62aa-84d3b14aeb82.htm
But I notice however, there is no ParentID.
If I use AddFolder API though to create the sub folder, there is a ParentID, but does creating the folder this way work with LTI since it is not an external folder?

Hi Yasmin,
The ProvisionExternalCourse method creates a course using the Parent Folder for the LMS as the parent for the new folder as well, and so does not give an option for a different parent.
You can use the AddFolder method to create a folder with any parent, and then use the SetExternalCourseAccess method (https://support.panopto.com/resource/APIDocumentation/Help/html/684fa392-3226-fa96-28bc-cb36910419f7.htm) to associate the new folder with a specific external course ID.
Please let me know if you have any other questions.
Thanks,
Kevin
