Each folder type has a characteristic set of "modules" enabled by default. Each enabled module provides functionality to the folder: the assay module provides functionality related to experimental data, the study module provides data-integration functionality, etc. You can expand the functionality of a folder by enabling other modules beyond the default set.
Enable a Module in a Folder
- Navigate to the LabKey folder where you wish to enable the module.
- Select (Admin) > Folder > Management > Folder Type tab.
- In the Modules list, add a checkmark next to the desired module to activate it in the current folder.
- Click Update Folder.
Depending on the module, a new set of
web parts may now be available in the folder.

An admin can directly open a module, and access tools made available there.
- Select (Admin) > Go To Module.
- If the module you want is not show, choose More Modules.
- Click the module name to open it.
The list of enabled modules may be long, so a filter box is provided: type to narrow the menu.
