Adding a new folder

Follow these steps to add a new folder:

  • In Jira, go to Projects.

  • Make sure you are on the right project.

  • Click the Documents tab and navigate to the folder where you want to create the folder.

  • Click Add > Add Folder. The Add Folder dialog will open.

The Add button is available only if the user has Create permission.
