The Upload Digital Assets widget is used to quickly upload digital assets. It loads the selected digital assets into the DAM repository and creates any defined image variants, but it does not link the digital assets to records. Image variants are not created if:
-
An asset is not an image recognized by EnterWorks because it does not have a file name extension EnterWorks has been configured to support.
-
EnterWorks has been configured to not generate one or more variants for the asset based on the asset's filename.
For instructions on using the Upload Digital Assets widget, see Upload Digital Assets through Widget or DamMaster.
