Sentence: How to add images to a collection, edit asset details, and add descriptors to make your assets easier to find.
Overview
The Asset Library lets you upload new images and videos to a collection, and edit their details afterwards so they stay accurate and easy to find.
Example: For instance, after uploading a new product photo, you can crop it, add alt text, and tag it with relevant descriptors so your team can find it quickly later.
📌 Important:
🤖 You can also use AI-generated alt text and descriptors to save time. This is an opt-in feature, see Work Smarter in the Asset Library for details.
