Assets
Browse and inspect the media files stored in your Digital Asset Management (DAM) site — images, videos, and other files organized by story.
Key Features
- Asset Library: View all media files for your selected DAM site in a searchable, paginated list
- Thumbnail Previews: Each asset displays a preview image so you can visually identify files at a glance
- Asset Detail: Click any asset to open a full detail panel showing filename, subject, headline, credit, keywords, location, file size, and storage location
- S3 vs Local Indicator: Each asset shows whether it is stored in cloud (S3) or locally, so you always know where your files live
- Site Selector: Use the topbar site selector to switch between DAM sites — the asset list updates automatically
- Stats Bar: A summary bar at the top shows total counts for Stories, Assets, cloud-hosted files, Accounts, and Downloads across the selected site
- Search & Sort: Filter assets by keyword and sort by any column to quickly find what you need
How to Use
- Select a DAM site from the topbar site selector — the asset list will load automatically
- Browse the list to see all assets with their thumbnails and key details
- Click on any asset row to open the detail view with the full file information
- Use the search box to filter by filename, subject, keywords, or other metadata
- Click any column header to sort the list by that field
- Use the pagination controls at the bottom to move through large libraries
Tips
- If no assets appear, make sure a DAM site is selected in the topbar
- The cloud icon (S3) means the file is stored on Amazon S3; "Local" means it is stored on the server
- Asset counts in the stats bar update whenever you switch sites, giving you a quick overview before diving in
- Click through to a Story from the Assets list to see all the other files that belong to the same editorial package
