Folder Up Icon

Q: When should I use it instead of a similar icon?

Use it for upload menus in a drive that send a local directory with all its subfolders at once, and parent level buttons in classic file dialogs that open the directory above the current one. For sending a single resume or signed contract PDF from the device, use the File Up icon. For keeping a local directory and the drive in sync both ways, use the Update Folder icon. For scheduled backups that copy a whole device to remote storage, use the Cloud Upload icon.

Folder with an up arrow in the center, for uploading, submitting and syncing whole folders. Available in 4 styles (outline, solid, duotone and filled) as a React component you install with the shadcn CLI.

Folder Up icon FAQ

What does this icon show?

Folder with an up arrow in the center, for uploading, submitting and syncing whole folders. Typical uses: upload a folder to cloud storage, submit a directory of files and push a local folder to a server.

When should I use it instead of a similar icon?

Which styles does it come in?

4 styles: Outline, Solid, Duotone and Filled. Every style is drawn on the same 24 by 24 grid and installs as its own file, so you can switch styles without touching the layout.
