# Drive Overview

> A shared, foldered home for every file the platform touches: the ones you upload, the ones Persona AI generates, and the ones automations deliver.

Drive gives every file, whether uploaded, generated, or delivered by an automation, one shared, permissioned home. Instead of a dashboard living only in the conversation that created it, or an upload having nowhere to go, everything lands in the same place: organized into folders, versioned, and shareable without ever leaving the product.

## What lives in Drive

Three kinds of files land in the same store, with the same folder structure, sharing model, and UI:

* **Uploaded**: You drag in a file or an entire folder tree from your device.
* **Persona AI generated**: Anything Persona AI creates in a session, such as a dashboard, a doc, or a deck, is saved automatically and tagged with the session it came from.
* **Automation deliverables**: Outputs from a scheduled or manual automation run are filed automatically into a folder for that automation.

<Note>
  Because Persona AI can read what's already in Drive, it doesn't just store your work. It becomes working memory. Asking Persona AI to "summarize last quarter's board deck" works without re-uploading anything, as long as that deck is already in Drive.

## Key concepts

| Concept                                  | Description                                                                                                                                                               |
| ---------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Folders**                              | Create, nest, rename, and move folders. Drag and drop a single file or an entire folder tree to upload.                                                                   |
| **Views: All, My Drive, Shared with me** | *All* shows everything you can reach. *My Drive* shows only what you own. *Shared with me* shows only what others have given you access to.                               |
| **Sharing by person**                    | Give specific people viewer or contributor access to a folder (viewer or editor on a file). Folder permissions apply to everything inside it.                             |
| **Sharing by link**                      | Generate a link with an optional expiry. Anyone signed in to your workspace who opens it gets access. Turning the link off removes only the people who joined through it. |
| **Version history**                      | Files keep a version history. When Persona AI regenerates a file, the new version doesn't overwrite the story of how it got there.                                        |
| **Grid and Table view**                  | Browse Drive as a visual grid of cards or a sortable table. Same files, two layouts.                                                                                      |
| **Source**                               | Every file shows where it came from, whether an uploaded file, a Persona AI session, or an automation. Filterable from the toolbar.                                       |
