If you mean to list "the folders" in a particular drive with a given name, for example, "MyFiles", there is no concept of folders in Deta drives. There are just files with names. The Deta drive is the key-value storage, a bucket. The key is the file name, and the value is the file itself.

The file's name can have a prefix. For example, the name can look like "/abc/xyz/my_file.jpg". The "/abc/xyz" is the prefix of the name. It looks like a folder name, but it is not.

You can list all the files in the drive via list() and then check the prefixes you are looking for.

To list the file with a given prefix, use the prefix parameter of list()`.

Finally, it isn't possible if you want to list all the drives programmatically in the project. You need to go to Deta UI and check there visually.
