`list_drive_folder`

The videos and images of a Google Drive folder, subfolders included, each with its format.

Read only Scope: read Pro and Scale plans Credits: Free*

What it does

Inventory the videos and images of a Google Drive folder (link or id), subfolders included. A folder shared as "Anyone with the link" needs no connection; a private one is read through the Drive connected to Apogee when that account can open it. Each file has a ref to pass to prepare_launch; its format (9:16, 4:5, 1:1, 16:9) is detected from Drive. One listing stops at 2000 files or 200 folders (truncated: list a subfolder for the rest).

Parameters

url string required

Drive folder link or id

up to 2,048 characters
recursive boolean optional

Example

Your assistant calls it for you when you ask in your own words. What it sends (MCP tools/call, JSON-RPC 2.0):

tools/call

{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 1,
  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "name": "list_drive_folder",
    "arguments": {
      "url": "https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fo/example0000/nordlicht-creatives"
    }
  }
}

The same call over HTTP with an API key, for an MCP client of your own (an assistant that signs in sends its OAuth token instead):

curl

curl -X POST https://app.apogee.ad/mcp \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $APOGEE_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -H "Accept: application/json, text/event-stream" \
  -d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":1,"method":"tools/call","params":{"name":"list_drive_folder","arguments":{"url":"https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fo/example0000/nordlicht-creatives"}}}'

Access and cost

Plans	Pro and Scale.
Scope	`read`: a connection or an API key without it does not see this tool (scopes).
Effect	Reads only: nothing is changed, in Apogee or on the ad account.
Credits	Free up to the daily free reads (5,000 a day on Pro, 10,000 on Scale), then 1 credit per read. A call that fails costs nothing (credits).
Rate limit	600 MCP requests per 15 minutes on Pro, 1,200 on Scale (rate limits).
Daily cap	Counts 1 unit toward the 2,000 units one API key or assistant connection can use in 24 hours.

In the REST API

The same thing for your own code, with an API key:

List drive folder: GET /drive-folders

Creatives: Bring the files in before a launch. Nothing reaches Meta at this point.

import_link: Imports the creatives behind a Frame.io, Dropbox or Google Drive link (a file or a folder) through the account connected to Apogee. A public Frame.io share works without a Frame.io account when downloads are allowed; a password-protected share does not.
import_status: The progress of an import. Each finished file gets a ref for the launch.
get_upload_urls: For files on your computer: one signed upload URL per file (50 per call, 500 MB per file, valid 1 hour). The assistant uploads each file with an HTTP PUT.
confirm_uploads: Checks each uploaded file arrived and is not empty.
