Nylas Folder API
Email providers use folders to store and organize email messages. Examples of common system folders include Inbox, Sent, Drafts, etc.
If your team is migrating from Nylas APIv2, there were previously two separate endpoints for interacting with Folders (Microsoft) and Labels (Google). In Nylas API v3, these endpoints are consolidated under Folders.
To simplify the developer experience, Nylas uses the same folders commands to manage both folders and labels, using the folder_id key to refer to the folder's ID on the provider. The API also exposes provider-specific fields such as background_color (Google only).
Depending on the provider (Google, some IMAP providers, etc.), a message can be contained in more than one folder.
