Using the API you can set a Threshold profile when creating a customer folder. I think it would be useful and make sense if you can also set an IT Automation Profile from this as well.
From this :
data = {
"Name": "string",
"CustomerId": int,
"ThresholdId": int
}

To this :
data = {
"Name": "string",
"CustomerId": int,
"ThresholdId": int,
"AutomationProfileID" : int
}
