Please refer the below Job-DSL documentation to create a folder in Jenkins through Job-DSL.

Folder

folder('folder-a') {
    description('Folder containing all jobs for folder-a')
}
job('folder-a/job-a') {
    // Job config goes here
}

This is completely incorrect for modern versions of Jenkins. – christopher Sep 25 '20 at 12:23

@christopher can you explain what is wrong with it? This answer matches the current job DSL documentation here: https://github.com/jenkinsci/job-dsl-plugin/wiki/Job-DSL-Commands "Items can be created within folders by using the full path as job name." – IanAWP Nov 26 '20 at 09:30

Please, take a look at Jenkins filestructure: https://wiki.jenkins-ci.org/display/JENKINS/Administering+Jenkins

Here you can see where jobs are stored by default (job config and build logs). You can not and should not change this filestructure with DSL script (JobDSL plugin).
