      TIP

      How many levels of subfolders can I create on Google Drive?

      Exactly how many levels of subfolders you can create depends on which part of Google Drive you are using. For example, on a shared drive you can create up to 20 levels of subfolders. Generally speaking, using only a handful of levels of subfolders will produce a more navigable folder structure.

      You can also upload an existing folder and its contents to Google Drive. See the next section, “Upload a Folder to Google Drive,” for instructions.

      As well as enabling you to upload individual files, Google Drive lets you upload one or more folders, and the documents they contain, in a single operation. Uploading folders is usually a quicker way of getting your files into Google Drive and is convenient as long as you want to upload all the files in the folder.
