Hi @kongu 👋 and welcome to passbolt community forum 🧑‍🤝‍🧑

If your main goal is to automate processes in your company with passbolt API, I would say the easiest way is to use [go-passbolt-cli](https://github.com/passbolt/go-passbolt-cli) client.  
There is packages for many Linux distros and it is [pretty well documented](https://github.com/passbolt/go-passbolt-cli/wiki).

If you want to develop your own client in the language of your choice, the main documentation is [here](https://help.passbolt.com/api).

A good start is to enable passbolt browser extension debug logs and have a look at the sent requests:

As an example in Firefox:

You can export the create folder as curl:
