Assets Library

General

The Assets Library is a centralized repository for uploading, storing, and managing various assets—including images, videos, audio files, and more—for use in creative production or ad serving. This library is accessed throughout Flight Control wherever assets are required, such as when building templates, creatives, or referencing assets in feeds.

You can efficiently organize and browse your assets within the Assets Library using folder structures, bulk folder uploads, and search and filter functionalities.

The Assets Library also offers a public API, enabling you to manage assets and their metadata from external systems. For more information, see Assets Library API Reference.

Search & Filtering/Sorting

You can search for an asset by name using the search bar, filter assets by file type and/or extension, and sort asset files by size, name, or creation date in ascending or descending order.

File Explorer

The file explorer enables you to organize assets within a nested structure of folders and subfolders, with all assets and folders residing within a main "root" folder.

You can select these assets and folders to perform various actions. Additionally, right-clicking a file allows you to edit it (for images only), rename it, download it, or copy its file URL.
