# Asset Library Overview

The Tiled Asset Library is the shared storage space for creative content to be organized and used within your microapps. Not to be confused with the Asset panel in the Tiled Builder, the Asset Library is a separate page within your Tiled account that allows you to organize your shared creative assets in folders.

The Asset Library contains two primary entities;

1. **Libraries**  
   A folder to group similar or related images and video assets together.
2. **Assets**  
   Image or video files that can be used within your microapps. 

**Supported File Types**

*If you experience issues uploading your assets, ensure the file name only contains alphanumeric characters and try to re-upload your asset.*

Asset Libraries are especially helpful when you have many creative assets and multiple projects underway. Libraries, and consequently Assets within those libraries can be used in the Tiled Builder from the assets panel.

There are two types of Asset Libraries:

1. [**Tiled Libraries**](https://support.tiled.co/asset-library-overview#tiledlibrary)  
   Assets are uploaded from a users local machine and stored directly in Tiled.
2. [**Adobe Libraries**](https://support.tiled.co/asset-library-overview#adobelibrary)  
   Assets are uploaded and stored directly to your Adobe Creative Cloud Account. *Please note, in order to use this feature you must link your Adobe Creative Cloud account.*

**Creative Assets outside of Libraries**

You do not have to upload media to the Asset Library in order to use it within a microapp. Creative assets can be uploaded in the builder or [synced with a plugin](https://support.tiled.co/hc/en-us/articles/4407739051795).

### Create a New Tiled Asset Library

A Tiled Asset Library is a collection of images and videos uploaded from a user’s computer to a Folder and hosted by Tiled for use within microapps.

1. Click **Assets** in the header of the Tiled Library.

2. Select **+ New Library** from the left side panel. You will see an option to create a new Tiled Library or Adobe asset library.

3. Select **Tiled Library. **

4. Give your library a name that will be easily recognized by you and your team. Click **Create.** You will see your library created on the left side panel organized in alphabetical order.

#### **Private Asset Libraries**

Tiled does not yet support *private* Asset Libraries. All Tiled Asset Libraries will be visible to Editors, Admins and Account Admins inside the Tiled library it is created.

### Create a subfolder for your new Library

1. Select an existing Library from the left hand panel.

2. Click the **Create folder** button in the top right 

3. Name your subfolder and click **Create.** You will see your subfolder created under your library in alphabetical order.

**Note** To move a subfolder to a different library, simply drag and drop it on top of your desired library.

### Uploading Assets to a Tiled Library

1. Click the blue **Upload** button. A window appear allowing you to select assets to upload from your local machine to the Tiled Assets Library.

2. Select your assets and click **Open**.

If you are uploading assets from the **All Assets** view, you will see the following:

- The selected assets appear under the **Assets** section of the page
- The selected assets appear in a Tiled asset library named **Uncategorized**

If you are uploading assets from a Tiled Asset library view, you will see your assets appear in the library.

#### **Default Category**

A new Tiled asset library named **Uncategorized** gets automatically created by the system when adding assets from the **All Assets** view.

### Replace an Asset in a Tiled Library

To replace an asset in a Tiled Library, identify the location of the asset and simply **upload** an image or video with the same file name as the asset you wish to replace. When you replace an image or video in an Asset Library, it will be updated in all of locations that asset is used in your microapps. Remember the microapp(s) **must be republished from the Tiled Builder** to see the updated assets reflected in all public facing microapp links.

#### **Example**

Let's say you build a microapp that uses a photo named *background-01.png* from an Asset Library called *Sales Deck Assets*. If you replace the image *background-01.png* in your *Sales Deck Assets* library with a new image (but the same name), the new image will show in all of the microapp locations it is being used. This is a really great way to make an update to an image but see the change propagate across multiple microapps if it is an asset that gets reused or changes often.

 Create a New Adobe Asset Library

Adobe Creative Cloud Libraries are a great way to manage creative assets 

1. Go to the asset library page by clicking the asset library icon in the top right hand corner.
2. Select **+ New Library.** There will be an option to create a new Tiled asset library or Adobe asset library.
3. Select **Adobe Library.**
4. Login to your Adobe CC account.![image-20201211-034235.png](https://support.tiled.co/hs-fs/hubfs/Knowledge%20Base%20Import/image-20201211-034235-1.png?width=595&height=323&name=image-20201211-034235-1.png)
5. After a successful login, you will be redirected back to the asset library and see a pop up modal to select the Adobe CC library you want to sync to Tiled.
6. Select the Adobe CC library you want to sync from the dropdown and click **Sync.** You will see the selected Adobe CC library created and appear on the left side panel as well as the assets (if any) appear in the library.

**Missing Adobe CC Assets?**

Select Adobe CC asset library that is missing images. **Click** the blue **Update** button in the top right. Any new assets added to the Adobe CC Library will be synced over to Tiled.

### Delete a Library

**⚠️ IMPORTANT NOTE**

When deleting a library, the folders' assets will not be available to use in future microapps, however the assets **will** remain in existing microapps.

To Delete a microapp:  
1. Go to the **Assets** page.  
2. Identify the Library intended for deletion.  
3. Click the three dots next to the name of the Library.  
4. Select **Delete.**
