# Set a folder's views

`PUT https://api.markdrop.in/api/v1/workspaces/{workspace_id}/folders/{folder_id}/views`

Replaces a folder's saved views: tables and boards, up to 20. Members and admins.

- **Authentication:** API token required: `Authorization: Bearer mdk_…`.
- **Rate limit:** 120 per minute per IP address.
- **Guide:** [Properties and views](https://docs.markdrop.in/pages/properties-and-views)

## Path parameters

- `workspace_id` (string, required): The workspace's id, from the address of its settings page (`markdrop.in/settings/workspaces/<workspace-id>`) or from [List workspaces](https://docs.markdrop.in/api/workspaces/list-workspaces).
- `folder_id` (string, required): The folder's id, from [List folders](https://docs.markdrop.in/api/folders/list-folders).

## Request body

`application/json`, required.

- `views` (array of object, required): The saved views, `table` or `board`, up to 20. Up to 20 items.
- `base_rev` (integer): The `rev` you read. If someone changed it since, the answer is `409` instead of overwriting it.

## Responses

- `200`: OK.
- `401`: No token, or the token is revoked or mistyped.
- `409`: Someone changed the views since your `base_rev`.
- `422`: The request didn't validate. `detail` lists each problem, with where it is (`loc`) and why (`msg`).
- `429`: Too many requests from your IP address. Wait the seconds in `Retry-After`.
