Learn how to organize digital files online in folder hierarchy using CloudFiles' Content Library. You can easily organize all your uploaded files & folders online, using the CloudFiles' content library (online files storage). CloudFiles allows deep folder hierarchy. This combined with the ability to easily move files across the library makes it easy to organize large number of digital files.

As shown in the images below, you can create folders from the content library into any cloud storage. In the Native app, navigate to the library tab and use the "Create Folder" button on top right of the library. You can give a name to your folder before creating it.

You can also create folders within folders to further refine your organization.

You can also rename the folders after creation as shown in the images below. Simply click on the 3 dots icon and choose rename. A dialog box opens up where you can type the new name of the file.

Finally, you can move files across the online file storage. This is shown below. You can then select the new folder to which you want to move this file. Thus you may not only organize but constantly re-organize your digital files as per your requirement. In the native app, simply click the 3 dots icon, select move and choose the destination folder.

Let us first clear out the difference between CloudFiles Data Rooms and Folders since both of them seem to be of a similar nature.

Folders are simply directories inside the CloudFiles library. A folder can contain both files and folders. You can add files into folders from a variety of sources - your local storage or Cloud based drives like Google Drive, Box Drive, Dropbox or One Drive. Folders can be shared using CloudFiles links and when this is done the files in them also get shared. 

Datarooms is a secure storage space for your files meant to share files together with a single CloudFiles link. The file can be sourced in multiple data rooms from any of the Cloud Drives. You can also Request Files in CloudFiles data rooms Removing the hassle of individually downloading and sorting files received via email attachments.

With such major distinctions between the CloudFiles data rooms and folders in it's content library, Folders should ideally be used to share files and folders with a single person while the data rooms are to be used to segregate files and folders for sharing with different persons or companies.
