Organizing your Report and Dashboard Folders in Lightning Experience 

Allow us to create subfolders for Reports & Dashboards folder
Things to remember
  • Enhanced folder sharing must be enabled to use report and dashboard folders and subfolders. 
  •  Subfolders can be created only in user created folders. You can’t create a subfolder in your Private folder or the Public folder. 
  • Folder sharing is only at the root level. If you want to share a subfolder, you must share its root folder. 
  • Everyone can see who has access to a subfolder, but if you want to change sharing settings you must do that at the root level.
