# Update Folder

`PUT /v2/folders/{id}`

Rename and/or move a folder. Include the parent field to move the folder (set parent_folder_id to move under another folder, or leave it unset to move to the root).

## Path parameters

- `id` string, required — The ID of the folder. The owning team is resolved from the folder.

## Request body

- object
  - `name` string, nullable — New name. Omit to leave the name unchanged.
  - `parent` SvflowPublicapiParentFolderIdUpdate — A presence-tracked parent-folder update. The message wrapper lets the JSON surface distinguish "omitted" (leave the folder where it is) from a move: send the wrapper with parent_folder_id set to move the folder under that parent, or with parent_folder_id unset to move it to the root.
    - `parentFolderId` string, nullable — The destination parent folder. Unset moves the folder to the root.

## Response `200`
