# Configure module globs

The search paths used to locate your modules are called module globs. You must configure the module globs for [Sitecore Content Serialization](https://doc.sitecore.com/xp/en/developers/101/developer-tools/sitecore-content-serialization.html "Sitecore Content Serialization") to find them. Typically, a solution has a file system structure like the following:

```

├───.sitecore
└───src/
    ├───BasicCompanyBuild/
    ├───BasicCompanyItems/
    │   └───BasicCompanyItems.module.json
    │   └───serialization/
    ├───Feature/
    │   └───BasicCompany/
    │       ├───Accordion
    │       ├───HeroBanner
    │       ├───PromoCard
    │       ├───PromoContainer
    │       └───SectionHeader
    ├───Foundation/
    │   └───Navigation
    ├───ProjectItems/
    │   └───ProjectItems.module.json
    │   └───serialization/
    └───Sitecore.RenderingHost.Helpers/

```

To configure module globs:

1. In Sitecore Module Explorer, double-click **Sitecore Configuration Root**.

    ![Illustration showing the Sitecore Configuration Root form.](https://doc.sitecore.com/api/markdown-image/xp/en/developers/101/developer-tools/images/SitecoreConfigurationRootEditor.png)

2. In the Sitecore Configuration Root window, edit the following:

    | Field | Content |
    | --- | --- |
    | **Default max relative item path length** | [Configure the maximum relative item path length](https://doc.sitecore.com/xp/en/developers/101/developer-tools/configure-the-maximum-relative-item-path-length.html) allowed in the file system. |
    | **Relative serialization path** | [Configure the relative serialization path](https://doc.sitecore.com/xp/en/developers/101/developer-tools/configure-the-relative-serialization-path.html) for items in all modules. |
    | **Module Globs** | Add the paths to your modules. You can use wildcards for this. For example, to tell SCS that you keep `*.module.json` files located in `/src` subfolders, add `src/*/*.module.json`. Or, if you want to keep module files in the `src/Feature/BasicCompany/Accordion/` subfolder, add `src/*/*/*/*.module.json`. |

3. Save the Sitecore Configuration Root.
