Organizing Files

Folders, moves, renames, and bulk selection.

Folders

You can create folders to group related files. Some specifics:

  • Folders can be nested up to 10 levels deep.
  • Each folder shows a count of files it contains (recursive — includes files in subfolders).
  • Folders are navigated through breadcrumbs at the top of the Vault.

Creating, renaming, deleting

  • Create a folder with the New Folder action at the top of the Vault. It's created in your current location.
  • Rename a folder by opening its menu and choosing Rename.
  • Delete a folder by opening its menu and choosing Delete. The folder and all its contents move to Trash. Restoring brings everything back.

Moving folders

You can drag folders into other folders, or use the Move action to pick a destination. Moving a folder takes everything inside it along for the ride.

Moving files

Drag a file into a folder, or open the file's menu and choose Move. A picker lets you choose any folder (or the root). Multiple files can be moved at once — see multi-select below.

Renaming files

Open a file's menu and choose Rename. The original file isn't re-uploaded; only the display name changes.

Multi-select and bulk actions

Hover any row to reveal a checkbox. Click to select. Common patterns:

  • Shift-click to select a range from the previously selected file.
  • Select all in the header to select every visible file (respects current filters).

With files selected, a toolbar appears with bulk actions:

  • Move to a single destination folder.
  • Delete — moves the selected files to Trash.
  • Selection count is shown so you know how many files are affected.

Selection is scoped to the active view (Files vs. Trash). Switching views clears the selection.

View modes

  • List view — A table with columns for name, type, size, and date.
  • Folder navigation — Click into folders to drill down.

What you can't change

  • File contents — the Vault preserves the original file as-is. To replace a file, upload a new one.
  • The owner of a file — files belong to whoever uploaded them. Admins can manage this if needed.
