# Products

## Overview

The Product feature helps you organize and quickly find files by grouping them using specific product references. Once enabled, users can add two new metadata fields—**Product Reference** and **Product Position**—to their assets.

Marking assets with Product References makes it easy to locate materials for seasonal promotions or product launches.

## Enabling Products

To enable this feature, navigate to [**Settings > DAM > Library > Featured Components**](https://hub.filerobot.com/settings/dam/library/featured-components) and turn on the **Products** feature to automatically add the **Product Reference** and **Product Position** fields.

## Creating and Deleting Products

A product will appear in the **Products** view only if at least one asset has this Product as assigned in its **Product reference** field.

Products are automatically removed from the **Products** view when no assets are associated with them.

## Assigning Product Metadata to Assets

To add Product metadata to an asset:

1. Select the asset
2. Open the Details view
3. Go to *Metadata > Custom*
4. Click the Edit button
5. Add or update the **Product reference** and **Product position** fields.
6. Save the changes.

You can configure an uploader script to [assign product metadata](https://developers.scaleflex.com/#2dd93fbb-e4db-4859-ac2f-c97849a201ca) during upload automatically.
{% endhint %}

**Product Reference** identifies the specific product to which the asset is related. \
**Product Position** specifies the order in which assets appear within a product group. For example, it determines the sequence of images in a promotional campaign.

### Removing Product metadata from an Asset

To detach product metadata from an asset:

1. Select the asset and open the **Details view**.
2. Navigate to **Metadata > Custom**.
3. Click the **Edit** button.
4. Clear the **Product reference** and **Product position** fields.
5. Save the changes.

## Using the Products view

The list of Products can be found at **Menu > Products** (the Product view).&#x20;

All users can see the products in this View, as long as it is [enabled from the configuration settings](/digital-asset-management-dam/library/products.md#enabling-products) and there are assets associated with the products.

The **Product Position** value of an asset determines the order of the files in the detailed view when a Product is selected.

## Searching for products

### Product Filter

Use the **Products** filter in the search bar to find assets:

* **Search by single reference:** Enter one product reference to retrieve its associated assets

* **Bulk reference search:** Use the **Add List** option in the filter to paste multiple references (one per line). The system will automatically format the input and display results for all referenced products.
