New Traditional Folder

You can create traditional folders in M-Files. These folders do not have the additional properties provided by views. Traditional folders are comparable to, for example, folders on your C:\ drive and can be used for importing files to M-Files. Traditional folders allow you to retain the original folder structure of the imported files. For more information about traditional folders, refer to Import Files and Folders.
