On Box.com, Folder Tree puts your hierarchy next to Files so you can work side by side.
Summary
When you are in Files, you can now open Folder Tree — a panel to the left of the list that shows your directory tree. Use it to jump around your content, expand folders to see what is inside, and reorganize by dragging files or folders from the list onto a destination in the tree.
No more climbing back up the tree just to find another folder. Stay in context, work side by side, and put content where it belongs.
What’s new
- A file tree next to your list. Folder Tree stays open beside Files so you can see the hierarchy and the current folder at the same time.
- Open it from the top of the list. Click on
Expand Folder Tree at the top of the list to open Folder Tree panel on the left.
- Browse without leaving the list. Expand and collapse folders in the tree. Click a folder to open it in the list. Click a file to open it.
- Drag from the list to move. Select items in the list, drag them onto a folder in Folder Tree, and drop to move them there.
- It remembers if you left it open. Close Folder Tree with the X (Close Folder Tree). The next time you return to Files, it opens or stays closed the way you left it.
Availability
Folder Tree is rolling out on Box.com for Files as part of the modernized web experience. It is included with Box web experience; there is nothing extra to enable in Admin Console for the capability itself.
It is not available on Recents or other pages that do not show the Files list.
