Choose location for folders shared with me?
When files or folders are shared with me, they are automatically placed in the default shared location. However, for organizational purposes and to maintain consistency within my existing project directories, it would be highly beneficial to have the ability to specify the location where shared folders are stored.
This functionality would allow me to directly nest shared folders within the relevant project directories, streamlining my workflow and ensuring all related files are easily accessible in one place.

Hey Vaibhav Patel - thanks for posting on our Community!
I'm afraid this is not possible at this time, but you should be able to find all of your shared folders in the Sharing tab, as you probably know.
That said, you should be able to re-arrange your folder structure as needed, but be careful with shared folders as there might be issues with permissions etc.
Let me know if that helps!
