CloudSee Drive Favorites provides a quick way to mark and access the files and folders you use most. Instead of searching or browsing through buckets, you can star objects once and reach them from anywhere in CloudSee Drive — the Object List grid, the Object Preview panel, or the Left Panel.
This guide explains how to identify favorites, add and remove them from multiple entry points, and view all your favorites in one place. Favorites are private to your account and update instantly across every view.
