Create Folder

See more Google Drive Examples

In the Drive API, a folder is essentially a file — one identified by the special folder MIME type application/vnd.google-apps.folder

See Google Drive Files: create for more details.

Also See Working with Folders for more details.

// See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.
