# Nests

Find, open, and organize the nests available to you.

This page is where you open, find, and organize your nests. It opens after you sign in, and the **Nests** button returns you here.

### Find And Open Nests

Use **Search** to find a nest or folder. Select a nest to open it.

The list shows the nest owner, total records, included records, creation date, and last-access date. Select a column heading to change the sort order.

Where available, use the **AutoLit** or **Synthesis** links to open that area directly.

### Choose A Nest View

**My Nests** shows nests you own and nests shared with you. This includes nests shared through your organization or by people outside it.

**Organization's Nests** shows nests your organization owns or can access. This includes nests shared with the organization by people outside it.

{% hint style="info" %}
Nests created by organization members are owned by the organization by default. Check nest ownership and access in [Nest Settings](/your-nests/nest-settings.md).
{% endhint %}

### Organize Nests With Folders

Folders group related nests. Folders in **My Nests** are visible only to you. Folders in **Organization's Nests** are visible to organization members.

### Create A Folder

1. Select **My Nests** or **Organization's Nests**.
2. Hover over the selected view below **Search**.
3. Select **New Folder**.
4. Enter a folder name.
5. Select **Create**.

Admins can create folders in **Organization's Nests**.

### Move Nests Into A Folder

1. Select the checkboxes for the nests to move.
2. Right-click the selected nests.
3. Select **Move**.
4. Select the destination folder.

### Edit A Folder

Right-click a folder, then select **Rename Folder**, **Delete Folder**, or **Move**.

{% hint style="warning" %}
Changes to organization folders affect every organization member.
{% endhint %}

### Pending Invites

When someone shares a nest with you, you must accept the invitation before it appears in your nests. This is displayed at the top of the page. See [Accepting Invites](/account-management/accepting-invites.md).

### Nest Home

**Nest Home** is the home page within each nest. It differs from **Nests**, which lists every nest you can access.

Use **Nest Home** to:

* Draft or update the nest's protocol
* Add nest-level comments
* Open **Your Mentions** to review comments where a collaborator tagged you

For nest-level and study-level comment guidance, see [Comments](/collaborate/comments.md).

### FAQs

<details>

<summary>How do I invite someone to a nest?</summary>

If you're a nest **Admin**, open the nest's **Settings** page. Invite them to **AutoLit** for workflow access or **Synthesis** for outputs-only access.

See [Sharing and Access](/collaborate/sharing-and-access.md).

</details>

<details>

<summary>Can I archive nests?</summary>

Not at this time. We recommend you create an organizational folder titled Archive or other to keep these nests separate.

</details>

<details>

<summary>How do I delete a nest?</summary>

Only the nest **Owner** can delete a nest. In the nest's **Settings** page, select **Delete**. This action is irreversible.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://docs.nested-knowledge.com/your-nests/nests.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
