Moving projects and folders on a drive

You can move projects and folders in your Drive view. Keep in mind that folders cannot be moved to a drive's Private workspace. 

Users with different  Drive membership types will have different options available to them when moving projects and folders:

• Drive owners and Editor members—can move projects and folders both in and out of:
  • Folders on their Drive
  • Drive and private workspaces
  • Other Drives that they have access to
• Basic members—can move projects and folders both in and out of:
  • Folders on their Drive
  • Drive and private workspaces

Considerations for teams

Moving a project to a different drive, workspace, or folder may affect another team member's ability to access that project:

• If you move a project to your Private workspace, other drive members will not be able to access or see it.
•  Basic members can only move projects they created or own on the drive. Learn more about drive members
