Hiding a folder

About this task

You can hide a folder from users of client applications or unhide a previously hidden folder. When you hide a folder, the documents, custom objects, and folders that are contained in the folder can still be found by a search.

Important: The root folder does not appear in client applications. Hiding the root folder in these applications is due to internal logic and is not based on the value of IsHiddenContainer property of the root folder.

Procedure

To hide or unhide a folder:

  1. Access the folder properties in the administration console:
    1. In the domain navigation pane, click the object store that contains the folder.
    2. In the object store navigation pane, click Browse and click the folder.
  2. In the Properties tab, select True or False in the IsHiddenContainer property list.
