Hi,

it appears Folder.move_to method was indeed generating invalid request, thank you for reporting it. It has been resolved in 2.3.14 release, here is an example on how to move a folder:

ctx = ClientContext(site_url).with_credentials(credentials)

source_folder_url = "/sites/team/Shared Documents/2021"
target_folder_url = "/sites/team/Shared Documents/2022"
source_folder = ctx.web.get_folder_by_server_relative_url(source_folder_url)
source_folder.move_to(target_folder_url).execute_query()
