Upload files and folders to Asset Selector upload-files-folders
You can upload files or folders to Asset Selector from your local file system. To upload files using the local file system, you generally need to use an upload feature provided by an Asset Selector micro front-end application.
Upload assets from local file system basic-upload
To add assets to Asset Selector, perform the following steps:
-
If you are using rail view, then go to ellipsis and then click
Additionally, in the Drag files or folders here section, 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, click Upload. Your uploaded assets appear. See basic upload for the configurable code.
Upload assets with metadata upload-assets-with-metadata
You can add metadata to the assets while uploading them immediately into your application. Metadata includes various fields such as business subject line, product details, campaign, and so on. To do this, metadataSchema property is used. Go to asset selector properties to know more about metadataSchema property.
See upload with metadata for the code snippet required for the configuration.
-
Define the name for your upload using the Campaign name field. You can use an existing name or create a new one. The Asset Selector 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.
-
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.
-
Click Upload to upload assets to the Asset Selector. Review details confirmation box appears. Click Continue.
-
Assets start uploading. Click New Upload to restart the upload procedure. Click Done to complete uploading.
Customized upload customize-upload
Asset Selector allows you to add a customized upload form. There are several customizations available. For example the hideUploadButton property allows you to hide the upload button that is shown by default in the application. Instead, you can customize it to render outside the MFE application as per the requirement. See customized upload for the configuration.
