Required scopes: `buckets:write` + `folders:write`. ## OpenAPI ````yaml /api-reference/openapi.json post /folders/copy/{folderId} openapi: 3.1.0 info: title: Everabyte Storage API version: '2026.10' summary: Company-scoped storage API authenticated with API keys. description: >- The Everabyte storage API for company workspaces. Every operation here is reachable with an API key and has been verified against route registration and controller behavior. Authentication uses two headers: `X-Public-Key` and `X-Secret-Key`. API-key headers are not CORS-allowed, so this API is for server-side use only. Response shapes vary by layer. Success responses use `{status, message, data}`. Middleware errors use `{status, message, data, code}`. Controller errors use `{status, message, error}`. See the Conventions page for details. All examples are illustrative. Identifiers, sizes, and timestamps are placeholders, not production data. contact: name: Everabyte Support email: support@everabyte.com url: https://everabyte.com license: name: Proprietary servers: - url: https://api.everabyte.io/api description: Production security: - PublicKey: [] SecretKey: [] tags: - name: Files description: >- List, upload, download, update, move, copy, delete, restore, and version files. - name: Folders description: Browse and manage the folder tree inside a bucket. - name: Buckets description: Discover the buckets a key can reach and read their stored size. paths: /folders/copy/{folderId}: post: tags: - Folders summary: Copy a folder description: >- Copies a folder, including its contents, into a destination bucket and optionally a destination folder.
