Asset Folders
Folders give your assets a structure. You can create folders, nest them, and move files between them with drag and drop across projects, organisations, and jobs.
Creating and managing folders
Section titled “Creating and managing folders”- Create folders from any view in the asset browser.
- Nest folders to build a hierarchy; the folder path is generated for you.
- Delete folders, with the option to delete the files inside them or keep them.
Files that haven’t been placed in a folder appear at the root level, grouped by the team member or agent that created them.
Drag and drop
Section titled “Drag and drop”The asset browser supports two kinds of drag-and-drop:
- Move files between folders: drag an existing file onto another folder. Moving a file relocates it rather than copying it, so a file lives in one folder at a time.
- Upload from your computer: drag one or more files straight from Finder or Explorer onto a folder to upload them there. A progress bar tracks batch uploads.
Folders you’ve expanded stay expanded while you work, and the folder you’re dragging over is highlighted so you always know where a file will land.
Duplicate handling
Section titled “Duplicate handling”Folders keep duplicate handling sensible:
- Same name, different folders is fine.
/Campaigns/index.mdand/Templates/index.mdcan both exist. - Same name, same folder prompts you. If you upload a file whose name already exists in that folder, you’re asked whether to replace it.
- Replacing keeps history. Choosing to replace creates a new version of the existing file rather than discarding the old one, so nothing is lost.
Access
Section titled “Access”Folder operations respect the same access rules as the files themselves: folders are scoped to the organisation, project, or job they belong to, so people only see the folders they’re entitled to.
