Actions on the folder contents

When a folder is selected in the tree view, you can see the folder contents in the panel on the right side. You can choose to display the contents in this panel as a tiles view or a grid view.

To add folder contents, click the Add + button in the bottom right corner and select the type of content to add:

• Folder - see Adding folders
• BPMN Model - see Creating a BPMN model
• Process Map - see Creating a process map

The folders and models are represented as cards in tiles view and as rows in the grid view. You can apply various actions on the folder contents.

This table gives an overview of the actions that are available in this panel:
