It's highly important to structure team communication in your Workspace. Creating a folder helps to subdivide a workspace into smaller groups according to some organizational structure. You can't write or perform any actions in a folder. Once a user joins a folder, this user will see all public channels inside this folder.
To create a new Folder in your Workspace, follow these steps:
Option 1
Click on the channel link Create New Folder under the Workspace name;
Type in a channel name in the pop-up window;
Choose Folder location and select users who will be added as Folder members;
(Optional) Click Options, type in a channel description and (optional) choose the way you want the Folder’s subchannels to be sorted;
Click Create.
A new Folder has been created!
Option 2
Hover your cursor over the Workspace name in the Leverice channel tree;
Click the button that appears immediately to the right of the Workspace name;
