Hey @Meizygam

I've tried to replicate the issue on my side and I've been unsuccessful so far 😞 - Are you doing this in a Personal or Team Workspace?

I see that the videos didn't quite upload on the issue, are you able to reattach them so that we can see what's happening?

Meizygam commented 2 years ago

Hey @DannyDainton, I’m doing it in a team workplace. I attached the video again.

also, I can't delete folders. It's blocking me to run the collection after deployment to prod! is there any estimation?

@DannyDainton @giridharvc7 Any news? It's blocking me to run the collection after deployment to prod!

@Meizygam Would it be possible for you to share the collection with us to debug this further? You can reach out to us via help@postman.com to share this info.

If that is not possible, you can try out the following for deletion explicitly:

Delete the folders / requests under the folder you would like to delete, as a bulk operation. You can multi-select these requests / folders in chunks or in one go
Once the child folders / requests are deleted, you can try deleting the parent folder

Meizygam commented 2 years ago

@shubhbhargav Hey, The delete works in that way. But the most important for me is to move the folder...

shubhbhargav commented 2 years ago

@Meizygam I see. Can we try the same thing with the move operation as well i.e.

Create a new folder in the other collection
Bulk select the children from the source collection to the new folder
Delete the source folder once all the elements are moved

Meizygam commented 1 year ago

@shubhbhargav That would help if I had a folder with a few requests... I have folders inside folders, inside folders, and a lot of requests! It will take me hours!

shubhbhargav commented 1 year ago

@Meizygam That's understandable. Would it be possible to share the collections with us at help@postman.com (removing any sensitive info)? This would be helpful to debug this further. You can export the collection and share it with us at the email above.

@shubhbhargav I have been getting similiar issue here. I can move every folder here except grapql folder from the grapql collection.

Can't move the GraphQL folder here other folders.

I verified this one more of my team member, and he has the same issue too. can't move folders in and out of GraphQL collection for some reason. I have admin access and so does he.
