Group templates into folders and subfolders to keep your template library organized and easy to navigate.

## Prerequisites

- A DocuSeal account with at least one template created

## Steps

### Step 1: View folders on the dashboard

Open the **Document Templates** dashboard. Folders appear as cards above your templates. Click any folder to open it.

### Step 4: Navigate folders and subfolders

Inside a folder, subfolders display above templates. Click a subfolder to go deeper. Use the back arrow at the top-left to return to the parent folder or **Home**.

### Step 5: Create a subfolder

From inside a folder, hover a template and click **Move**. The modal shows the current folder as the parent. Type a subfolder name and click **Move**.

### Step 6: Rename a folder

Open the folder. Click the **pencil icon** next to the folder name. Enter the new name and click **Rename**.

### Step 7: Create a folder via drag and drop

Drag a template card toward the bottom of the dashboard. Drop it on the **Create a new folder** zone that appears.

## Tips

- Folders are created automatically when you move a template into a new folder name.
- Subfolder names use the format `Parent / Child` — DocuSeal nests them automatically.
- Only folders containing active templates are visible on the dashboard.
- You can search within a folder using the search bar at the top-right of the folder view.

## Summary

Move templates into folders from the dashboard, use subfolders for deeper organization, and rename or navigate folders as your library grows.
