Google Drive API to get folder list using Parent Id

Question

I am trying to get all folders under a google drive folder using parent folder id

using below api

content.googleapis.com/drive/v3/files/

passing parent id in request body

am able to create files and folders under parent id, but when try to get folder list in parent folder its giving me error as bad request

Note: I am using postman tool

And with this request you can retrieve files but not folders? — ziganotschka

When you want to use a query when listing results, the syntax is `'1234567' in parents`, not `parents=1234567`

In your case, the correct syntax would be something like

https://www.googleapis.com/drive/v3/files?q=%2710oCPwjGlp8ArZGP0nk2jnvztniaCRdH4%27%20in%20parents
