Moving a program to another folder

Hi, just wanted to confirm a very quick thing

 

If we just drag a default program from 1 folder to another to keep things organized. Will it affect or change anything into the program that we moved? 

 

Example: 

  • Folder 1
    • Sub-Folder 1
      • Program 1
        • Program 1 folders
    • Sub-Folder 2
  • Folder 2
    • Sub-Folder 2
      • Program 2
        • Program 2 folders

 

Here I would like to move Program 2 to Sub-Folder 2

 

Looking forward to your suggestions, Thanks

Best,

Yes, this can change the inheritance of Folder-level {{my.tokens}}. Also, under some circumstances an external integration searches for Programs within a specific Folder. (This wouldn’t apply to integrations that know the Program Name or ID in advance.)

Re: Moving a program to another folder

Thanks for replying @SanfordWhiteman it's clear to me now.

 

with that said, For the following scenario - there are 20+ default programs residing in the same folder which I would like to folderize/group them as per their goals. here, I won't create any new tokens in the new folders and given that, no external integration is searching for Programs within any of the specified Folders.

 

Current

  • Main folder
    • Default program 1 (goal a)
    • Default program 2 (goal b)
    • Default program 3 (goal a)
    • Default program 4 (goal a)
    • Default program 5 (goal b)
    • ..
    • ..
    • Default program 25
    • Engagement program 1 (goal a)

Looking to organize in the following way:

  • Main folder
    • Goal a (new folder)
      • Default program 1 (goal a)
      • Default program 3 (goal a)
      • Default program 4 (goal a)
      • Engagement program 1 (goal a)
    • Goal b (new folder)
      • Default program 2 (goal b)
      • Default program 5 (goal b)

Will I be able to organize them without making any change in the programs.

thanks

Re: Moving a program to another folder

I think you should be able to organize the programs in the nested campaign folders within the parent campaign folder without making any changes to the existing programs - Also, if your programs are leveraging tokens created under the main folder - those will still be available in nested campaign folders and programs you add within - i.e. references to the higher level tokens will not be broken.
