HIVO equips you to organize your digital assets efficiently with its folder management functionalities. This guide explores how to access folder settings, perform actions on entire folders, and maintain a well-structured library.

Accessing Folder Options

To view folder settings/actions, either right click the folder or left click the down arrow on the top right of the folder.

Folder Management Tools

The Folder Action section offers several options to manage your asset folder:

Types	Discription
Open Folder	Directly access the contents of the folder to view individual assets.
Nudge	This feature will allow you to prioritize folders for quicker access.
Pin/Unpin	Pin frequently used folders to the top of your library for easy reference. Unpin to remove them from the pinned section.
Download	Download the entire folder and its contents as a compressed file.
Share	Grant access to the folder and its contents with specific users or teams within HIVO.
Rename Folder	Modify the name of the folder for improved organization.
Move Folder	Change the location of the folder within your library structure. You may select an existing folder here to merge the folders
Duplicate Folder Tree	Create a complete copy of the folder, including its subfolders and all assets within them.
Delete Folders	Permanently delete the folder and all assets it contains.

Important Note on Deleting Folders:

Remember, deleting folders is permanent, so use the alternative method if you only want to remove the folder hierarchy (Without Deleting Assets).

If you only want to remove the folder structure but keep the underlying assets, follow these steps:

• Select "Move Folder" from the folder options.

• In the "New Folder Path" field, use the backspace key to delete the entire path, essentially removing the folder structure.

• Click "Submit" to confirm the changes.

Move Path

Any Assets inside the deleted folders will be placed into the 'Asset Destination Path'. No Assets will be deleted. This action will apply to both normal and pinned folders.

HIVO's folder management tools empower you to organize your digital assets efficiently. Leverage folder actions for bulk editing, utilize "Pin" and "Download" for quick access and sharing, and explore renaming, moving, and duplicating folders for optimal library structure.
