Permission you need

Rename, move, and update files

Set by your workspace admin. If you cannot do this, ask them for access.

Move takes a file or folder out of its current folder and puts it in another one. You need the Edit permission.

Tap the ⋮ on the item and choose Move.
Item menu with Move
On this screen
- Move – the entry with the folder-arrow icon, below Copy Permalink.
- Copy To… is right under it if you want to leave the original where it is.
The Move dialog opens. Look through the folders to find the destination.

- Left panel, Select a destination folder – My Folders (your own folders) and Favourites (your starred folders).
- Folder list – the folders you can choose, each with Created by You.
- Greyed-out files – files are listed but cannot be chosen; only folders can be a destination.
- Path bar – Inlynk at the top shows where you are in the tree.
- Create Folder – bottom left, to make a new destination without leaving the dialog.
- Move is greyed out until you pick a folder.
Tap the circle beside the destination folder, then tap Move.
Destination chosen

- Selected folder – Design Assets now has a filled blue tick and a highlighted row.

- Cancel leaves everything where it was.
The item leaves the current folder and is now inside the destination. Open that folder to confirm.
