# How do I manage folders and permissions in Docs?

### Folder management

The Docs application uses a **hierarchical tree** of folders to organize documents.

#### Create a folder

In the Docs application, click the folder creation button. Each folder can contain subfolders and documents.

#### Navigate the tree

A **breadcrumb trail** (breadcrumb) makes it easy to find your way around and return to parent folders.

#### Folder actions

* **Create** a subfolder
* **Rename** a folder
* **Move** a folder to another location
* **Delete** a folder (and its contents)

### Folder permissions

#### Visibility

Folders at the **top level** (root) can have restricted visibility:

* **The whole organization** : all collaborators have access to it
* **Specific communities** : only members of the selected communities can see the folder

Subfolders inherit the visibility of the parent folder.

#### Contributors

It is possible to define who can add documents to a folder:

* **All users** with access to the folder
* **Administrators only**

### Bulk actions

Multiple selection makes it possible to perform bulk actions on several documents or folders:

* Delete multiple items
* Move multiple items

### Display and sorting

* **Grid view** or **list view**
* **Sort by** : alphabetical name, creation date, file size
* **Filter by type** : folders, PDF, videos, images
* **Filter by community**

### What the assistant can do

With the scope **Documents**, the assistant can browse folders, search for documents, rename and move items.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://help.steeple.com/en/docs/docs-dossiers-permissions.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
