"New Folder" option missing in Workspace

Hello All,

I do not see the "New Folder" option in my workspaces.

We are on the Government cloud. Is that option limited to the public cloud?

Is that a featue that needs to be turned "ON" somewhere?

Any insights are appreciated.

Hi @dadkind ,

 

Workspace admins, members, and contributors can create, modify, and delete folders in the workspace. Viewers can only view folder hierarchy and navigate in the workspace.

  • Currently dataflow gen2, streaming semantic model, and streaming dataflow can't be created in folders.
  • If you trigger item creation from the home page, create hub and industry solution, items are created at the root level of workspaces.
  • Git doesn't support workspace folders yet.
  • Folders are not supported in Template App workspaces.

Hello. I am ad Admin on this account.

This is the menu that I see under the "New" menu item. Note that "folders" is missing.

 

Can you please confirm that the Folders option is available on the Government cloud?

 

Thank you,
