How to configure Folders

Folders allow you to organize your GoCanvas Apps and Submissions. They also show up on the the mobile device for your users. If you have a lot of Apps, this is a great way to keep them organized.

Folders go one layer deep in GoCanvas; you are not able to create sub-folders.

Folders are only available on the Professional plan. Visit the Account area to upgrade your plan.

Create a Folder

To create a Folder, go to the Apps page. You will find a "Create Folder" button.

Name your folder and hit "Save."

Organizing and viewing Apps and Submissions in Folders

Move GoCanvas Apps into your folder by dragging and dropping them.

You may also move them by clicking the "Quick Links" icon (below) and selecting "Move."

Click on the Folder name to access the GoCanvas Apps inside the folder.

Your folders will also show up in the Submissions area. It will tell you how many total Submissions are associated with each folder. The "Last Date" will show you the most recent date for any Submission received for a GoCanvas App in that particular folder.

Folders on mobile

Folders also appear on mobile devices to help your users in the field stay organized and quickly find the GoCanvas App they need. Users on mobile simply click on the folder they need to view the GoCanvas Apps inside.
