# Folders

The AllDrafts folder system is similar to your existing Windows or Mac file system. Folders can contain documents or other folders, in whatever hierarchy you would like.

## Naming Folders

For convenience, you can create any folder hierarchy simply by specifying it. For example, if you have a brand new client **Badlands Air Group, Inc.** and they've asked you to draft an employment agreement, you can create a new document and set the folder name to "Badlands Air Group / HR / Employment Agreements" and the entire folder hierarchy will be created at once.

## Moving Documents

You can move a document in the folder view by simply dragging it to a new folder. You can right-click on a document and choose 'Move' to specify a new folder. To move a document while it is open for editing, click the folder icon to the left of the document title in the top bar of the application.

When you are moving a folder, you can simply click and edit the folder path, or click on a component of the path (including the / level separator) to see a dropdown with options.

## Sharing Folders

Folders, like documents, can be shared with others. Use the Share button link at the upper-right of the folder header to share a folder.

You must categorize everyone you share with as Team, Client, or Counterparty. The folder will be colored accordingly.
