Connect to DAM

Turn text into a way into the assets in your DAM.

Connect to DAM turns a piece of text into a route into your assets. A visitor selects it and arrives at a gallery of the assets you chose, without you having to build that page yourself.

Connect to DAM at the end of the inline toolbar, with its shortcut.

Connect text to your DAM

1. Select the text.

2. Select Connect to DAM, or press Ctrl/Cmd + D.

3. Under How do you want to connect to DAM?, choose Redirect to gallery.

4. Fill in the details on the Context, Criteria and Advanced tabs.

5. Select Save.

To remove the connection later, open the same dialog and choose None.

What you can set

Tab	Covers
Context	The gallery's title and description, which gallery page opens, and whether its assets come from everywhere, a folder, or a label.
Criteria	Narrowing the assets by type, tags or metadata.
Advanced	Loading assets from another project.

The connect dialog, with its Context, Criteria and Advanced tabs.

From the inline editor, you can choose None or Redirect to gallery. Apply page filters and Open catalog appear greyed out here; they apply to other elements, such as buttons.

A piece of text can be a link or connected to the DAM, not both. Turning on one offers to turn the other off.
