Introduction to Media


In EEXAR, enriched content can be associated to products, this content is called Media and can be of many different types, the following list recaps the types supported:
  1. Pictures
  2. Videos
  3. 3D Models
  4. Binary files (ex: PDF, PPT, Excel, Word etc.)

Media Folders

The first thing you will notice when landing on the Media page, is that the folder structure strictly matches the one of Products, so that you can easily find the content that you are looking for. If you need more information about folders for Products, you will find them here.

You can only add, edit or delete Media folder by executing the respective action on the corresponding Product folder.

Media

All Media view

The first view you'll land on after entering a Media folder of a Product Folder is the All Media view of all the Media contained by the Media Folder.



This view simply shows ALL the Media that this folder contains, it is useful when looking for specific types of Media such as 3D Models or Videos.
From there you can also perform Mass Media Imports through ZIP files, more about this topic here.

By Product view

You can switch from a view to another by clicking on the  /   icons on the top right corner, switching to the "By Product" view is going to gather the Media associated to the ct under a single row, hence you will be able to easily manage the Media that only belong to a product specifically.
