The **Folders** section in ChatNGO allows you to efficiently organize your chats ensuring your workspace remains clutter-free and easy to navigate. Folders help categorize your content, making it easier for teams to locate important information, collaborate on projects, and share relevant files with the right individuals.

### Key Features

1. **Create Folders for Organization**
   * Users can create folders to store chats in a more structured way. For example, you can create separate folders for projects, teams, or specific departments within your organization.
2. **Shared and Private Folders**
   * **Shared Folders**: Accessible by multiple team members, allowing for collaborative work. These folders are visible to other members of the workspace, depending on [permissions](/workspaces/folders/folder-permissions.md) set by the folder creator.
   * **Private Folders**: Only visible to the user who created them. These folders are great for personal work or content that doesn’t require collaboration.
3. **Folder Permissions**
   * Permissions allow you to control who can access and manage folders. Users can set [permission](/workspaces/folders/folder-permissions.md) levels for each folder, ensuring that only authorized team members can view or edit content.
4. **Subfolders for Deeper Organization**
   * To further organize your content, you can create **subfolders** within your main folders. This allows for a hierarchical structure, making it easy to store and find content related to specific tasks, teams, or projects.

### Why Use Folders

* **Organize Work by Projects**: Create project-specific folders to keep all related chats in one place.
* **Team-Specific Collaboration**: Shared folders can be created for specific teams, allowing team members to collaborate efficiently and share resources.
* **Track Ongoing Conversations**: Use folders to organize chats that are part of long-term projects, making it easy to reference previous conversations and decisions.
