Feature Request - provide action for shared folder creation in AoC Files

[misha-tal]

Hello dear Aspera team,

In the current version of ascli there is an action to get a list of shared folders of a specific workspace:
ascli aoc admin res workspace --id=19196 shared_folders

But there is no option to create a new shared folder.

This option can be very useful in many cases of migration from on-prem to AoC.

Thanks,
Misha

@laurent-martin let us know what you think about this and if you think it is a reasonable feature to add. Thx!

Shared folders are relatively complex beast. They can be at workspace level or node level, etc...
It will come over time.

@laurent-martin I currently have 3 customers migrating from Shares to AoC Files that need this feature. Please add me as a vote for this one. :)

Yes, I know it is a very important feature ....
It will come...
There is already some work in the development branch... but it is not working yet.
AoC X introduced new APIs for the creation of admin shared folders...

Note that version 4.14.0 has better support for this.
