List conversations in a folder

GET
/mail/mailboxes/{mailbox}/folders/{folderId}/conversations
curl --request GET \
--url 'https://mail.work.optidata.cloud/api/mail/mailboxes/78/folders/2/conversations?page=1&filter=all' \
--header 'Authorization: Bearer <token>'

One page of the folder’s contents, newest first. What a row represents follows the caller’s own listing preference: with conversation grouping on (the default) each row is a thread, with it off each row is a single message. The page size is the caller’s conversations per page preference.

currentFilterTab echoes the applied filter and shouldDisplayFilterTab says whether filtering is meaningful for this folder — Drafts, Important and Scheduled ignore the filter parameter.
