Organizing files in your workspace

You can organize your files into folders or keep them as standalone items in the workspace in their respective sections.

Creating Files, Folders, Subfolders

To create a new file or a new folder:

• Click the + button from the sidebar

Sorting Files and Folders

To manually sort your files and folders, use drag and drop from the sidebar, or you can also rearrange and move files directly from the grid or list view:

In the grid or list view, you can also sort your content by creator, date created and date modified. Head over to the article here to learn more.

Locking the Sidebar

If you want to lock your sidebar to see it at all times, you can pin it to the screen by clicking the icon (top-left corner):

Even if you don't pin the sidebar, you'll still be able to access it by hovering over the ☰ icon (top-left corner) or using the keyboard shortcut Cmd + E (Mac) / Ctrl + E (PC). You can also change the size of the sidebar by dragging it by its edge.

Renaming Files and Folders

To rename a file, open it and click in the current name section. To rename a folder, right-click on it from the sidebar → Rename file / folder.

Deleting Files and Folders

To delete an individual file or a folder, right-click on it from the sidebar → Delete file / folder.

You can also bulk-delete files that are located in the same section or folder by selecting any or all content you want to delete → Delete.
