# How do I manage folders and permissions in Docs?

### Folder management

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

#### Create a folder

From the Docs app, click the folder creation button. Each folder can contain subfolders and documents.

#### Navigate the tree

A **breadcrumb trail** (breadcrumb) makes it easy to orient yourself and quickly return to parent folders.

#### Actions on folders

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

### Folder permissions

#### Visibility

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

* **Entire 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 allows you to perform bulk actions on several documents or folders:

* Delete several items
* Move several items

### Display and sorting

* **Grid view** or **list view**
* **Sort by** : alphabetical name, creation date, file size
* **Filter by type** : folders, PDFs, 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.
