6. (Optional) You may add a description of what the folder is meant to contain for reference later in the field that says "Add a description"

1. Open Google Drive by clicking the "google drive" icon in medportal.
2. In your view, select the file (or multiple files) that you want to move into your folder by clicking the check box next to it (them).
3. Click "Move to" above your document list.
4. Expand "My folders" by clicking the grey arrow to the left of it, if it is not already expanded.
5. Click the folder you would like to move the file(s) to select it.
6. Click "Move to folder"

Your documents have now been moved to the folder, and should have a label with the name of the folder beside them in your "All items" view.
