Find assets
To find existing assets in the library, use the filers and search bar. See also Universal filter and Saved filter views.
When you navigate in a folder, the folder name displays in the search bar. Searching here will search only assets in the current folder. You can remove the folder from the search bar to search the entire Library.
Watch assets
You can watch assets and receive relevant notifications about whether assets were uploaded into a folder, when they were deleted or had a version uploaded, and also before their expiry.
You can add watchers when you click on an asset in the library.
Once you select a watcher, they will begin receiving notifications related to the asset, as per their notification settings. Go to your avatar > your name > Notifications tab > Watcher Notifications section > Library tab to set notification settings. The watcher can select from a wide variety of in-app or email notifications as they desire. The watcher notifications are applicable for both assets and folders in the library so a user can choose to watch a folder or individual assets within the library.
