For all content options that allow you to organize with folders, it would be extremely helpful to be able to create folders within folders for better organization leading to less duplicates and efficiency when looking for content already created my a teammate.
September 2021 HubSpot Update Hi everyone! Thank you for your enthusiasm for this idea over the past few years. We're glad you're excited about getting folders in different areas of HubSpot's product and we're working on making that a reality. As the original idea mentions a few different product areas managed by different product teams, we're breaking this idea into different ideas to ensure we can provide helpful updates as they're available.
Going forward, please use the following ideas for upvotes and comments around different folder requests.
Please note that while these new ideas have fewer upvotes, we are tracking their association to this idea and counting these upvotes towards the new requests. To ensure we filter new upvotes to the correct areas going forward, we have disabled comments on this idea.
Thank you again for using the ideas forum and for your enthusiasm for these products!
I'm Jess, a Product Manager in the Automations group. We are currently rolling out folders within folders AND custom views for Workflows! All Workflows customers should see the new features available in their portals by 6/15! Please do not hesitate to let me know if you have any questions or feedback.
Thank you for submitting and interacting with this idea. My name is Andres Bustos and I'm the Product Manager for Lists at HubSpot.
While this feature may not be available across the entire HubSpot platform, this is available now within our Lists tool. If there are other specific places where you see this not implemented, but think of it as critical, please let us know by replying to this comment.
Thank you for submitting, upvoting, and commenting on this idea!
We are continuing to follow this thread and the increases in requests in recent weeks. At this time there are no immediate plans to develop this Idea, but that is not to say that this idea will not be developed. The ability to add folders within folder, while seemingly a quick fix, will require some broader changes to how our sales content library is built. We will be considering multiple potential changes to organization and layout in sales content library before we update this issue to "Being Reviewed".
Re: Folders Within Folders - changed to: Not Currently Planned
Per my previous comment, we are hopig to review and plan this issue in the near future, but this is not planned for development in the next quarter. For transparency and clarity, I am updating this issue to 'Not currently planned' for the time being. I will update here once we have plans in place.
I'd like to provide an update on this idea, as it has not gone unnoticed!
We have recently been focused on developing other features in sequences related mostly to new functions when building and enrolling contacts into sequences. However, we are planning this year to shift a focus to the management and administration of sequences, enrollments, and user permissions. We plan to make this shift some time in Q3 of this year.
Adding folders within folders is a logical next step for the organization of a large team's sales content. Furthermore, it is something that you can already do within Marketing Hub content. As we begin to review "Folders Within Folders" specifically, I will update this idea post with our progress. Thank you all for your feedback!
I just shared a post on this as well. I am very surprised this isn't a capability of HubSpot. Larger companies with multiple campaigns, multiple sectors, dozens of employees need the extra organization to keep things in line.
HubSpot should strongly consider adding such a rudimentary ability.
We've been using file naming conventions to try to organize our content and templates, but sub-folders would be a huge help. With more than 10 offices and different sales teams that need both customized and office-specific material, trying to store everything we need without losing usability or adding confustion is creating headaches. Sub-folders (and maybe even sub-sub-folders) would be a huge help.

Thank you for letting us know. This is an extremely important feature for your customers who do use templates and other content forour sales teams, so I hope it's considered for next quarter and doesn't just get shelved.
@glencornell Thank you for posting updates on this topic! It's heartening to come to a reccomendation thread and at least see that the request is not being ignored outright. I apprecaite your transparency as well as far as the expected timeframe. Keep up the good work!
@glencornell Thank you for the update. While it is disheartening to know that this relatively low hanging fruit, in my opinion, is not on the table for this quarter, I do greatly appreciate the update and acknowledgment.
I agree. It seems a pretty basic function in order to allow for efficient organization of documents. I really hope we see this update soon. We want to use Hubspot to every extent possible and in as many areas of our business as possible - sales, operations, admin, HR etc. Having a robust Documents module would really help this. Otherwise, we are stuck with Dropbox 😞
This would really help me and my team work. We have different departments that all have content mixed in. It would be nice to seperate it out so that you can go to the right department and dive deeper. Im suprised this isnt possible as all computer have allowed this since the beginning. It is one of the biggiest missing pieces of the software.
This feature needs to be implemented ASAP. We are pushing for our sales team to use HubSpot for document storage and distribution. Unfortunately, this lack of basic file management functionality makes it a non-starter.
This feature would be hugely welcome. It seems illogical to be able to organise landing pages and emails into sub folders yet not have this feature for organising forms and workflows. Not being able to mirror the same filing system across different types of assets is unmanageable and confusing.
Making it posssible to create subfolders would really help us (the Marketing people) to have a much more organized and efficient file structure with no duplicates and outdated documents to be shared with our sales reps. After our sales team started to upload documents by themselves, this "Sales>Documents" folder soon became a mess. So we would highly appreciate the option to create subfolders! 🙂
