These requests are a MUST and my OCD is going crazy over these issues, even writing this email is getting me worked up.
Please let us have the ability to delete shared docs, if someone shares a doc with us and we no longer need it, let us delete it off our docs list.
Give us the ability to choose our docs storage location, currently it’s in My Drive on my google drive folder but they’re mixed in with everything else, let me have a coda folder PLEASE!
Juanmata, I’m with you on improved file organization. There are feature requests dating back to October 2018 on this (Dashboard organization) and I suspect even older ones as well.
As for the storage location, although you can’t specify it from within the Coda interface, you CAN move all your Coda docs into a different Google Drive folder (or folders). I don’t personally find that super helpful, but it is possible.
+1 Yes, it is very distracting seeing these docs. And then every time I am going through my list of docs, and wondering what a doc is, so I click it, and it’s one I don’t want anymore, but now it’s at the top of my list again … very frustrating.
There’s the “Owned by me” section in “All Docs” (but, something that could help maybe would be to enable the users to select a “default view” (in between “Starred”, “Owned by me”, “Shared with me”, etc…) when opening Coda)
This thread was started 5 years ago and there’s still not the option to delete docs shared with you or docs you chose to view that just ads to your workspace.
Please everyone who commented on this thread go to the top and VOTE on this feature. I don’t want to ‘Hide’ the doc, I want to delete it from my workspace.
Thanks for your reply. I’ll pose this question; is hiding and deleting the same thing?
If someone wants a yellow coat and I say I have a red one, only half of the request is solved. I actually use hide as a function for my notes that are inactive and things I want to incorporate later. So with items in there that are completely irrelevant clogging that channel is an inefficiency.
But the point is, that those items are no longer “in there”. You want to hide the doc from your view, not delete it from the workspace that shared it with you, nor the hundreds of people that that doc has been shared with.
This doc was shared with me as part of the Coda AI Beta. If I no longer wanted to see it, I would hide it. Deleting it would be extremely disruptive.
Understood. My confusion was that by deleting it ‘from my list’ would delete the master copy. I was simply trying to delete it from my list.
If ‘hiding’ it is the same then I guess but that also feels like it would take up space on my account? Maybe I should check the amount of storage I have OR that may not be relevant with shared docs or at all.
