A folder can contain components: its children. A folder’s children can be components of any category, but only documents and sub-folders are displayed in FlowerDocs GUI.

Adding content

To add a component to a folder, it must be referenced as a child of the folder using a ComponentReference object. From this reference, the addChildren(id, childReferences, replace, successCallback) function revealed by the JSAPI.get().folder() service can be used. The Boolean replace is used to indicate whether the content of the folder should be replaced by the new referenced children.

var childReference = new ComponentReference("documentId", "DOCUMENT");
JSAPI.get().folder().addChildren("folderId", [childReference], false, function(){
    console.info("The document has been added as child");
});

Deleting content

A component can be deleted from a folder so that it is no longer referenced as one of its children, using the deleteChildren(folderId, childReferences, successCallback) function

var childReference = new ComponentReference("documentId", "DOCUMENT");
JSAPI.get().folder().deleteChildren(folderId, [childReference], function () {
    console.info('The document has been removed from folder'");
});
