You can also move a document by dragging-and-dropping its icon up and down the Workspaces sidebar.

Impact on Sharing Permissions

Moving documents may impact collaborators' access to the document. Collaborators with access to the document that is being moved will retain their permissions. Collaborators with access to the document's original folder – but not to the document itself – will lose their permissions, unless they are also collaborators in the document's new folder. The document will also be accessible to collaborators in its new folder, even if they were not previously granted sharing permissions to the document.

Before moving a document to a new location, make sure to check which collaborators will lose access to it, and which collaborators will gain access to it. Take extra precaution when working with sensitive or confidential information.
