Folder Management

Renaming Folders

Update folder names to better reflect their contents:

  1. Navigate to the folder you want to rename
  2. Click the folder menu (three dots) or right-click the folder
  3. Select "Rename" from the menu
  4. Enter the new folder name
  5. Press Enter or click "Save" to confirm

Note: Renaming a folder doesn't affect the recordings or meetings inside it. Only the folder name changes.

Moving Folders

Reorganize your folder structure by moving folders:

  1. Navigate to the folder you want to move
  2. Click the folder menu (three dots) or right-click the folder
  3. Select "Move" from the menu
  4. Choose the destination folder from the folder picker
  5. Click "Move" to confirm

Moving Rules:

  • You cannot move a folder into its own subfolder
  • Moving a folder also moves all its subfolders
  • Folder permissions may affect where you can move folders

Deleting Folders

Remove folders you no longer need:

  1. Navigate to the folder you want to delete
  2. Click the folder menu (three dots) or right-click the folder
  3. Select "Delete" from the menu
  4. Review the confirmation dialog:
  • Empty Folder: Can be deleted immediately
  • Folder with Content: You'll see how many items will be affected
  1. Type the folder name to confirm deletion
  2. Click "Delete" to permanently remove the folder

Warning: Deleting a folder also deletes all subfolders and their contents. This action cannot be undone. Make sure you want to delete everything before confirming.

Folder Permissions

Control who can access folders:

  1. Navigate to the folder
  2. Click the folder menu and select "Permissions" or "Share"
  3. View current permissions:
  • Owner: Full control over the folder
  • Admins: Can manage folder contents
  • Team Members: Access based on team permissions
  1. Adjust permissions as needed
  2. Save changes

Permission Levels:

  • View Only: Can view folder contents but cannot modify
  • Edit: Can add and remove items from the folder
  • Manage: Can rename, move, and delete the folder
  • Owner: Full control including permission management

Folder Organization Tips

Best practices for organizing with folders:

  • Use Consistent Naming: Establish a naming convention and stick to it
  • Time-Based Organization: Organize by year, quarter, or month for chronological access
  • Project-Based Organization: Group content by project or client
  • Team-Based Organization: Create folders for different teams or departments
  • Avoid Over-Nesting: Keep folder depth reasonable (2-3 levels is often sufficient)
  • Regular Cleanup: Periodically review and reorganize folders
  • Use Descriptive Names: Folder names should clearly indicate their contents
