How to Create a Subfolder

This article describes how to create a subfolder to organize the files stored on your account. When a subfolder is created, access and permissions are inherited from the parent folder above. Users with Folder Admin permissions have granular control to:

  • Change folder options
  • Change folder access and permissions

Requirements to create a subfolder

  • User must be a Client or Employee user with upload permissions in the parent folder.
  1. Click on a folder to open it.
  2. Where you have upload permissions, hover over the Add icon and select Create Folder.
  3. Give the folder a name and description/details (optional).

Note:

ShareFile does not allow duplicate folder names in the same parent folder. If you wish to create another folder at the same level as the previous folder, you will need to navigate back to the original folder and repeat these steps.
