How Do I Copy a Folder Structure in a Project?

This article will explain how to copy an existing folder structure within your Asite project.

Updated this week

Users on Asite can copy part of a folder structure or the entire hierarchy and recreate it in another location within the same project.

Copying a structure:

  • Copies only the folders (no files)

  • Retains the existing layout

  • Can include folder permissions and metadata if required

NOTE: Folder structures can only be copied within the same project. Cross-project copying is not supported.

  2. Navigate to the Files tab.

  3. Right-click on the top-level folder of the structure you want to copy.

  6. Select the subfolders to copy using the checkboxes on the left.

  7. (Optional) Select the permissions and metadata to copy (bottom-left of the window).

  8. Click Continue.

  9. Select the destination folder in the folder tree.

  10. Click Continue again to confirm.
