Folders list - Folders tree
The Folders tree displays the hierarchy of folders in a project. The tree includes read-only Public and Private folders that store all other folders. Public folders can be accessed by other users depending on permissions and private folders cannot.
Actions you can perform on folders depend on access given in security groups you are in and permissions for specific folders. If you cannot work with a folder, the folder icon is gray. If a folder is locked, a lock icon is displayed on the folder and you cannot perform any actions on it. Items you can view and edit in folders depend on access given in security groups and the item workflow. See Managing access to folders.
