In the DAM, you can organize your assets by folders. This view is available in the left panel of the Library under the name "Folders":
It consists of a navigation panel where the folders and their sub-folders are hierarchically ordered and an expanded view where you can preview the content of the current folder. It is available in a Grid view or a List. The view is controlled by the following icon:
If you select a single folder and then click on the " Info" icon at the top right part of the page, you will open a panel showing the folder's details:
You can use the button at the top right part of the page to create a new folder. The new folder will be created as a sub-folder of your current folder's location.
Folder access settings ensure the right users have the appropriate permissions to view, edit, or manage assets, enhancing security and organization.
Navigate to the folder you want to manage.
Click the ... icon next to the folder name.
Select Share > Manage access from the dropdown menu.
In the pop-up window, review the following details:
Folder Owner: The user who created the folder.
Current Access Mode: Determines if settings are inherited or overridden.
People with Access: A custom list of users or teams with specific permissions.
To add users or teams, select Override from the Access Mode dropdown and click on the Add Users button that will appear in the People with access section.
The company Owner, Administrators and folder owner have unrestricted access to view and edit the folder, no matter the permissions.
If you select a folder and open its context menu, you can download its content. The same action is available from the navigation bar and the download icon at the top right corner of the selected folder. The content is exported as a ZIP archive.
This option is useful when getting details about the folder's content.
Please select the folder, open the context menu, and choose "More actions -> Export list of files (CSV)." At this step, you can choose to export the file details of the entire project or only the files placed directly in the selected folder or the folder + its nested sub-folders.
The information that is exported in the CSV contains:
Item Type
Path CDN link
mime-type size
SHA1
file uuid
creation date
update date
visibility settings
If you know the name of the folder in which you are interested, you can jump directly into it using the small Search folders box:
You can also perform actions such as downloading folders, sharing them, editing via CSV, moving folders to different locations, and deleting folders directly while searching for the desired folder.
If you know that some file is located in a specific folder, you can use the main Search box to specify this folder and then apply additional search criteria in order to find the files you are interested in:
This feature is available for users with a Manager, Admin or Owner .
Default Visibility: Predefined access for users without explicit permissions. See .
In order to be added, the users and the teams should be already existing in the DAM and lists.
You can not assign to the users a Gallery role lower than the which is set for the Project.
