Create an Image Set creating-an-image-set

When you create an Image Set, Adobe recommends the following best practices and enforces the following limits:
‡ Best practice is not to have duplicate assets in a set. The limit is 20 duplicates for a single asset. If, within the set, you add another duplicate for that asset, the request either gives an error or ignores the duplicate.

Delete an Image Set
When you delete a set, the set itself is moved to the Trash. However, the members (or “children”) within that set are not affected; instead, they each retain their existing published or unpublished state.
