The upload setting can be managed under the Settings / DAM / Storage/ Listing menu.
When enabled, share an Asset Gallery Explorer over a public link to external users.
Set the default CDN visibility for the root folder.
Public will publish all assets over CDN link.
Private will make the assets visible only in the Asset Hub and the Widget implementations. Folders can inherit or override the Root folder’s default asset visibility.
The Gallery Role defines what the users can do with the assets stored in a specific folder.
Setting a default gallery role for all users in the project will determine what the users are able to do by default with any newly created folder.
The creator of the folder has specific permissions that are not affected by the Gallery Role.
The Storage settings cover many of the key functions in your DAM account.
Upload management rules, default visibility & download
The upload setting can be managed under the Settings / DAM / Storage/ Upload menu.
Set a rule for naming the assets once uploaded. Possible options are:
Assign a random file name in UUID format
Keep original file name with a random suffix

Provide the agreement text users should agree to when downloading an asset.
Applied when Download consent is enabled.
Enter the template text for the usage right file in the "Usage right file template" text box.

DAM Custom routing
The Custom routing setting can be managed under the Settings / DAM / Storage/Custom routing menu.
Custom routing rules in DAM allow you to rewrite URLs to match specific file paths and names, making public asset URLs shorter and more user-friendly. These rules utilize regular expressions (REGEX) to ensure that lengthy or complex URLs can be simplified without affecting the organization or accessibility of the assets. This feature improves URL usability while maintaining structured file management within the DAM system.
This feature should be requested to the Support team for activation prior to be possible to use it in DAM.
DAM Storage Providers
The Providers setting can be managed under the menu.
Scaleflex DAM supports multiple storage options, including its built-in S3-based storage for high performance and scalability. Additionally, you can integrate external storage providers like AWS S3, Google Cloud Storage (GCP), and Azure Blob Storage. Click +Add connection to add or replace a self-managed storage for seamless asset management.
