<div className="article_labels_list" style={{display: 'none'}} dangerouslySetInnerHTML={{__html: "End User , Overview , Organize , Article , New , Product Utilization"}} />

Folder icons differ based on folder owner and collaboration status. For more information on folder permissions, [check out this article here](/en/box-fundamentals/for-users/collaborating/collaborating-by-inviting-others/understanding-folder-permissions).

Frequently-used icons are identified in the following table:

      <td class="wysiwyg-text-align-center"><strong>Description </strong></td>
