Illustrative idea · PROJECT SETUP
Prepare a new project folder layout
Set up an approved project structure while leaving documents from other work behind.
Reuse a folder layout without bringing along someone else’s files.
Illustrative idea, not a published runnable template. Grunt is prelaunch; live service is paused and live provider connections and outcomes remain unverified. The steps, providers, and outcomes below describe a concept.
Help a team set up a familiar folder layout in a new location by copying the immediate folder names while leaving documents and other files behind. Have the source and destination owners approve access before any folder is read or created, show the intended destination clearly, and let a person review the result before the new structure is used.
Actual availability depends on published steps, supported connections, permissions, and provider approval.
A folder layout needs to be reusedA source location and destination selected by their authorized owners
“Re-create an approved folder layout while keeping source and destination access under owner review and excluding files.”
Work through the request.
Clear tasks, with review where it matters.
- Confirm the source and destination with their owners
- Review the folder names in scope
- Create missing destination folders
A destination containing the copied immediate folder names, with existing destination folders left in place.
What this workflow could do
Helps people reuse a simple folder arrangement for a new project or workspace without duplicating the source contents.
Review points proposed in this idea
Folder names can reveal confidential project or customer information, and creating folders in the wrong place can disrupt work. Have the owners approve access to both locations and confirm the destination before starting. This process copies only the immediate folder structure; it does not copy files or nested folder contents. Review the result with the destination owner before relying on it.
How the idea could work
Select an illustrative task to explore its proposed role. No workflow runs here.
-
Verify that the requester is authorized to use the selected locations and that the destination is correct.
-
Identify the immediate folders that may be recreated and keep their names separate from any files they contain.
-
Add folders that are not already present while leaving existing destination folders intact.
-
Do not copy documents, other files, or folders inside the immediate source folders.
-
Show what was created and ask the destination owner to verify the result before the team uses it.
Step 1 of 5
Confirm the source and destination with their owners
Verify that the requester is authorized to use the selected locations and that the destination is correct.
Proposed setup considerations
These are planning notes for the concept, not instructions for a currently available template.
- 01
Approve access to both locations
Have the source and destination owners review and authorize the exact locations and intended use before access is granted.
- 02
Define the copy boundary
Make clear that only immediate folder names are recreated and that files and nested folders are excluded.
- 03
Choose how existing folders are handled
Confirm that matching destination folders should be left in place and decide how uncertain name matches are reviewed.
- 04
Assign a destination reviewer
Name the person who confirms the destination and checks the new layout after creation.
Read the prelaunch status
Published templates and verified customer availability remain pending.
