Last updated:
This guide explains how to manage the reporting library at scale using folders and catalog controls.
Library scopes
- My Folders : content you own/manage (root: My Custom Reports).
- Shared With Me : content shared by other owners.
Catalog features
- Breadcrumb navigation through nested folders.
- Search by name and description across folders, reports, and dashboards.
- Row-level actions based on your permissions.
- Permission badges to show effective access on each item.
- Private indicator on eligible report rows.
Create assets in the current location
- Add Folder : create a new subfolder.
- Add Report : create a new report in the current folder.
- Add Dashboard : create a new dashboard in the current folder.
Creation in a folder requires create rights plus folder-level allowance.
Folder operations
- Share Folder : assign users/groups with View or Edit.
- Rename Folder : update display name.
- Clone Folder : duplicate folder structure/content as permitted.
- Move Folder : relocate under a different parent.
- Delete Folder : removes folder and contained reports/dashboards (with confirmation).
Report and dashboard operations from catalog
- Open item.
- Share (where allowed).
- Rename report.
- Clone report/dashboard.
- Move report/dashboard to another folder.
- Delete report/dashboard.
- Favorite report/dashboard.
Move workflow details

Recommended folder strategy
- Organize by business function (Sales, CS, Leadership, Operations).
- Use subfolders for region/team/use-case segmentation.
- Prefer folder-level sharing for team libraries.
- Reserve item-level sharing for exceptions.
