# Organize uploaded videos

There are two ways to organize videos in the Gcore Customer Portal:

* Use separate directories for videos
* Use tags—grouping keywords

Let's examine the difference between the two ways. Imagine you have 100 videos in the Streaming storage. They have been divided into two directories by date: 50 videos in the "10.31.2022" folder and another 50—in the "11.01.2022".

You need to group videos by other criteria: "teaser", "clip", and "short film" types. To do so, you don't need to create new directories and lose the date separation. You can add relevant tags to the appropriate videos. The tag list will appear in the Gcore Customer Portal, and you can filter videos by them. The videos will still be in two directories.

## How to use directories

### Create a directory and upload videos

1\. In the Gcore Customer Portal, navigate to **Streaming**.

2\. On the **All videos** page, click **Create a directory**.
