Or, - The **Folder Quota**, where the storage for the folder is specified. For more details, see [Adding or Editing Cloud Folders](/v1/docs/adding-or-editing-cloud-folders-1-1). You can also edit the folder quota directly for a cloud drive folder in the page for that specific cloud drive folder. You can manage all the cloud drive folder quotas centrally in the **Quotas** page. The following procedures are all done centrally, in the **Quotas** page. **To add a folder quota to a cloud drive folder:** 1. Select **Provisioning > Quotas** in the navigation pane. The **Quotas** page is displayed. ![Image](https://cdn.document360.io/30792387-cdcb-4791-aa14-94929bbcd3fe/Images/Documentation/image-G9I2TT3J.png?sv=2026-02-06&spr=https&st=2026-11-11T04%3A27%3A29Z&se=2026-11-11T05%3A27%3A29Z&sr=c&sp=r&sig=T%2B3HI9sVI6TtsyxMLxpp07i%2BoEU5Gou%2FaHLjbjso8wY%3D) The page is empty if folder quotas have not been set: ![Image](https://cdn.document360.io/30792387-cdcb-4791-aa14-94929bbcd3fe/Images/Documentation/image-6VEGID8W.png?sv=2026-02-06&spr=https&st=2026-11-11T04%3A27%3A29Z&se=2026-11-11T05%3A27%3A29Z&sr=c&sp=r&sig=T%2B3HI9sVI6TtsyxMLxpp07i%2BoEU5Gou%2FaHLjbjso8wY%3D) 2.
