Organize your sidebar
Nesting, reordering, and keeping a growing workspace tidy.
The sidebar is your workspace’s table of contents. Everything you make — pages, databases, dashboards, canvases, forms — lives in one tree that you shape however you like.
Group work in folders
Create folders for projects or teams, then drag items into them. Expand a folder with its arrow to browse its contents, or collapse it to keep the sidebar tidy. Pages, databases, files, and other items can sit inside a folder or at the workspace root.
Select and organize several items
Hold Ctrl (Windows/Linux) or ⌘ (Mac) while clicking to add or remove items from a selection. Shift-click selects a range. You can also drag a rectangle from an empty area to select items. Press Escape to clear the selection.
Drag a selected item to move the whole group, or right-click any selected item and choose Move to…. The same actions are available from the item’s … menu. Move to Trash asks for confirmation before moving the selected items and folder contents to Trash. You can restore them from Trash.
Drive offers the same selection tools in grid and list layouts, plus checkboxes. On a computer, click to select and double-click to open; on a touch device, tap to open and use the checkboxes to select.
Download a folder
Choose Download from a folder’s item menu or Drive’s selection bar. Snoze keeps its folder structure in a ZIP named after the folder. Choose Markdown, HTML, or Word for pages, and Excel, CSV, or JSON for databases. Whiteboards use .snozeboard; files keep their original format. Forms, views, and other unsupported item types are skipped. Word exports page text; use HTML to retain rich formatting.
Tick Do not ask again to remember your download formats. You can change them later with Download formats… in an item menu.
Let search do the remembering
Structure is for browsing; for everything else there’s search. Press ⌘ K (Ctrl K on Windows) to jump to any item by name, no matter where it lives in the tree.
What teammates see
The tree is shared: everyone in the workspace sees the same structure for shared items. Items only you can access appear only for you. If something seems missing for a teammate, check its sharing settings — Permissions explained covers how visibility works.
