Creating a new folder
You can create the structure of the digital asset hierarchy by adding folders and subfolders to the directory node.
|
You can create folders and subfolders only if your login has an access level that allows you to create directory node. |
|
When you place a large number of assets in a single directory, it takes longer for the program to display the contents of the folder in the folder list. For example, a folder that contains 10,000 assets may take around 15 seconds to display a list of 10 of the assets in the directory. If you have a directory with a large number of assets, you can improve the speed by moving the assets into sub-directories of the directory. |
To create a new folder
- Log in to the Admin console.
-
Choose Assets from the navigation pane.
The Assets page displays. The digital asset hierarchy appears under Directory.
- Use the Directory hierarchy to locate the directory node in which you want to create the folder. Refer to Navigating the digital asset hierarchy for information about navigating to a particular directory node.
-
Choose Add Folder.
The Add Folder page opens.
- Complete the fields as needed. For more information, see Fields: Add/Edit Folder.
-
Click OK to save the folder information and return to the Assets page.
The new folder displays as a child of the directory node you selected in the Directory hierarchy.
