Employees can create folders within a folder only if the account admin has assigned them edit access to the folder.
After creating the folder, they can add content to the news feed to keep employees informed and engaged. It allows sharing important updates, announcements, and organizational information with employees in one place, ensuring everyone stays up to date with the latest news.
