Update as of September 2022 In order to avoid multiple upload of assets, i.e. files such as documents or images, we slightly changed the approach and now recommend to start with the upload to the Asset Library and afterwards “Choose existing entry” when you make a local upload to publish it to your local websites. |
The video will give you step-by-step instructions.
Asset Upload
In order toavoid multiple upload of assets (e.g. documents or images which would be used by all local admins), we recommend to upload the assets first, instead of starting from Local document upload.
Due to the improved search for files offered in the new Contentstack Interface, sorting and managing of assets is simpler than before.
Publish local documents
With the Asset Upload you will not have published them to your local website, i.e. they will not be visible in the website yet.
To publish the asset, please continue with "Uploads > Local documents"
Here you will now "Choose existing entry" to select the asset you uploaded to the Asset library before.
Here you will also provide all required information about the asset (e.g. copyrights for images) and finally publish it.
Note: The instructions below are still valid, but refer the classic Contentstack UI. They will get updated.
