looks like there is no way of allowing API user to create scans under a folder.

Hi, My security analyst created a REST API user for me. I logged-in to Burp Enterprise REST-API and tried to use the 2 REST-API GET queries, these GET queries are working fine. The problem is with POST query. It does not allow API user, to create scans under a folder, which I had already created with project name. It always creates the scan outside the project folder. Therefore, my security analyst had to provide Administrator access to the API user. My question is, is it necessary to provide Administrator access to a normal REST API user in order to create the scan inside the project folder.
