    Hey there acruzat, I hope you're well today!

     

    You will only be able to move shared folders into team folders if the owner of the shared folder is a member on the team. 

     

    From what you've mentioned, it sounds like those outside of the team that share the folders with you are the owners of these folders. This means that you will only be able to see these within your personal member folder.

     

    What I can suggest to allow you to move the folders within the project team folders would be to request those outside the team to transfer the ownership of the shared folder to one of the team members.

     

    Otherwise, when you will share with people outside of your team, you can create the folder inside the project folder where it needs to be and then share this with those outside the team to add content into it.

     

    Let me know if this helps!
