Content Hub guide is now available in PDF format. Download the entire guide and use Adobe Acrobat AI Assistant to answer your queries.

Content Hub users with rights to add assets can add assets to the Content Hub either from local file system or import assets from OneDrive or Dropbox data sources. All assets display at the top-level in Content Hub irrespective of the folder structure available on your local file system or OneDrive and Dropbox data sources to enhance the search capabilities.

The assets marked as Approved in Assets as a Cloud Service are automatically available in Content Hub. For more information, see Approve assets for Content Hub.

To further enhance asset search, Content Hub allows you to:

  • Define key details relevant to your asset upload, such as campaign name, keywords, channels, and so on.

  • Automatically generate more properties for each asset upon successful upload, such as, file size, format, resolution, and some other properties.

  • Use the artificial intelligence provided by Adobe Sensei to automatically apply relevant tags to all your uploaded assets. These tags, aptly named Smart Tags, increase the content velocity of your projects by helping you find relevant assets quickly.

Ensure that you only upload your brand approved assets to the Content Hub.

Upload brand approved assets

Prerequisites

Content Hub users with rights to add assets can upload assets to Content Hub.

Add assets to Content Hub from local file system

To add assets to Content Hub, perform the following steps:

  1. Click Add Assets to view the Add your approved assets dialog box that enables you to create an upload.

  2. In the Drag files or folders here section available in the right pane, you can either drag the assets from the local file system or click Browse to manually select files or folders available on the local file system. This list of files that are part of your upload are available as a list.

    You can also preview selected images using the thumbnails and click the X icon to remove any particular image from the list. The X icon displays only when you hover your mouse over the image name or size. You can also click Remove all to delete all items from your upload list.

    To finish the upload process and enable the Upload button, you must group your assets under a Campaign name.

  3. Define the name for your upload using the Campaign name field. You can use an existing name or create a new one. The Content Hub provides you with more options as you type the name.

    As a best practice, Adobe recommends specifying values in the rest of the fields as well as it creates an enhanced search experience for your uploaded assets.

  4. Similarly, define values for the Keywords, Channels, Timeframe, and Region fields. Tagging and grouping assets by keywords, channels, and location enables everyone who uses your approved company content to find these assets and keep it organized.

  5. Click Upload to upload assets to the Content Hub. Review details confirmation box appears. Click Continue.

  6. Assets start uploading. Click New Upload to restart the upload procedure. Click Done to complete uploading.

Administrators can also configure the mandatory and optional fields that display while uploading assets, such as Campaign name, Keywords, Channels, and so on. For more information, see Configure the Content Hub user interface.
