Before we upload a document, we need to have a folder for the documents to be stored in. Folders are located in the Folder navigation panel at the left side of the Documents page.
Creating a new folder

The Create folder dialog box appears.
- Name: Give the folder a descriptive name.
- Location: Choose the location where this folder is to live, at a top level or sub level.

Setting access
You can set access to a folder after it has been created.
- Select the 3-dot icon kebab next to the desired folder.
- Select Set access.
- From the dialog box, select the users and/or groups to be given access.
- Use the toggle to apply access to the top level folder only, or all folders and contents (if subfolders are present).
Editing a folder
Existing folders can be edited as required.
