Collections

  • Updated

Collections let marketers select one or more pieces of content (such as existing brand assets available from across your library folders) and compile them in a single, brand-able webpage. You can generate a public URL—unique to that Collection—and easily with teams or external stakeholders for access to those materials.

When you go to Library view and select the Collections tab, existing collections are listed.

Add folders to a collection

You can add folders (with everything contained in the folder) from the library to a collection. You can add these in the same way as you would add an asset to a collection.

A folder in a collection stays connected to the folder in the library as a reference. So, if you add an asset to the folder in the library, it is automatically referenced in that folder in the collection too.

You cannot separate assets in a collection from their folder. If you do not want an asset from the folder to display in the collection, you must add the asset separately.

Add a cover photo to the collection

  1. While in a collection, open the options menu (...) and select Add cover photo.
  2. The library appears where you can select a photo for your collection and click Choose. The photo is applied to your collection view. You can the Change cover photo or Remove cover photo from the More menu (...).
