REST Gel all folders/subfolders and files in tree view using Ajax

Question

I'm trying to find a way to do this: create a tree view of all items in the "Documents" library, with folders, subfolders, and items (links to items).

Im using _api fo get folders an files

_api/Web/GetFolderByServerRelativeUrl('folderRelativeUrl')?$expand=Folders,Files

all i get is the folders and the name of the files ! not all files but files in the root.

I want the result in treeView or Array

Example: For a Documents library created as this :

Folder 1 Folder 1.1 Folder 2 Folder 2.1 text.txt Folder 3

Answer 1

Try

/_api/web/Lists/GetByTitle('Documents')/Items?$select=FileLeafRef,FileRef

You will have to built the correct tree structure yourself
