Creating a New Folder


To create a new folder you must have Browse + Access + Modify permissions in the folder where you want the new folder to show up.

To create a new folder using the Library Administration tool:

  1. In the Library Administration tool, navigate to the folder in which you want to create a new folder.

  2. Click on the New Folder button.

    Response: The New Folder dialog opens.

  3. Enter a Name for the folder.

    Comment: The following characters are not accepted in folder titles: \ / : * ? " < > |

  4. Optionally, enter a Description for the folder.

  5. Optionally, enter Keywords for the folder. These should be separated with semicolons.

  6. Click OK.

Note: The new folder will by default inherit the permissions from its parent folder.
