# Move documents to another folder

### **Move documents to another folder**

To relocate a document within the Legale platform, begin by selecting the file you want to move from the file list. Then, click the **“Move to”** button from the top action bar, which is highlighted with a folder icon. This action allows you to choose a new destination folder from your directory tree or shared spaces.

### **Select folder**

A dropdown menu will appear; select the destination folder (e.g., **Contracts**) and click the green **“Move”** button. The file will be instantly relocated to the chosen folder.

### **Confirm document location after move**

Once a document has been moved using the **“Move to”** feature, you can verify its new location by expanding the destination folder (e.g., **Contracts**) in the left-hand navigation panel under **My drive**. The relocated file (such as **Normas-Modificadas-2021**) will now be listed within this folder, confirming that the move operation was successful.
