Request for Feature Enhancement (RFE) Summary: If someone is migrating to AEM and now want to add whole folder in assets without choosing single files. So, to reduce production time there should be option to upload a folder in AEM assets.
Use-case: It will help to upload folder in assets and helpful in bulk assets upload.
Current/Experienced Behavior: Currently there is no option for uploading folder in AEM assets while we upload DAM assets to AEM Assets.
Improved/Expected Behavior: It will be helpful to upload a complete folder of assets instead of single assets file.
Environment Details (AEM version/service pack, any other specifics if applicable): All Versions.
Customer-name/Organization name:

Bhavi

Screenshot (if applicable):  
Code package (if applicable):

@bhavigoyal, the reply from the internal team is "This is already supported in the AEM Desktop App, and in the new Assets UI for Cloud Service (also Essentials)".

Hi @kautuk_sahni 
But this the screen where i can't see any of the upload folder options. It is to create a folder...

@bhavigoyal that is the Touch UI. If you navigate to the new Assets UI you will be able to drag an entire folder onto the page and initiate upload. To navigate to the new UI, go to experience.adobe.com and select "Experience Manager Assets". You can also click under your user icon in the upper right corner of the AEM UI (assuming Unified Shell is enabled) and select "Switch view" when you are in the Assets section of AEM (see attached screenshot)

 

From your screenshot it looks like you are in Sites.

ok, @alext- Thanks for your reply. Actually, I was talking about 6.5 and I think this feature is available with AEMaaCS, so that's confusing me somewhere...
