Folders: it would be useful to search for specific folders via the API #3385

Closed dasgarner closed 1 month ago

Folders currently output as a whole tree view.

If you are trying to us the API to add items to specific folders, it would be useful to be able to return folders based on a name/partial name search.

It looks like most of this work has already been done and is available via the gridView parameter in the Folder search API: https://github.com/xibosignage/xibo-cms/commit/84f2a463a6a066a60a087f99b29324febdcc0468#diff-05d26cb3a8c52dcb617f454ac52f18ab25788b43511d15f439d069519cb6e51f

I think the current API always does a partial match (TBC), so adding an exact match option would be useful e.g. exactFolderName parameter.
