Creating new folders

You can create new folders using the New Folder button, which is always available at the top of the screen.

This button automatically loads the name of the folder you are currently viewing and where the folder will be created.

To create a folder in the Root directory, click New Folder in Root at the top of the screen.

To create a folder inside another folder, either:

  • Click New Folder in <folder_name> at the top of the screen, or

  • Click the Add Folder icon in the Action column.

In both cases, the Create Folder window will appear. Enter the folder name and confirm by clicking ADD FOLDER.

Both the New folder in root option at the top of the screen and the Add folder button can be hidden for users that do not have permissions to create new folders.

The New Folder in Root option and the Add Folder button can be hidden for users without permission to create folders.
