Asset Collections

What Are Collections?

Collections are folders that group related assets together. They help you stay organized as your asset library grows -- especially when working on multiple campaigns, games, or ad networks at once.

Common ways to use collections:

• By type -- "Textures", "Audio Effects", "UI Sprites"
• By campaign -- "Summer 2026 Launch", "Holiday Promos"
• By game -- "Puzzle Quest Assets", "Runner Game Assets"
• By ad network -- "Meta Creatives", "Unity Ads Backgrounds"

Creating a Collection

1. Navigate to the Assets section from the sidebar
2. Click New Collection
3. Fill in the details:
   • Name (required) -- A descriptive label
   • Description (optional) -- Context about the collection
   • Public/Private -- Toggle visibility (public collections visible to all organization members)
4. Click Create

Collections display:

• Asset count badge -- Number of assets in the collection
• Visibility icon -- Globe (public) or Lock (private)
• Creator attribution -- Name of the user who created the collection
• Created date -- When the collection was created

Tip: Use clear, descriptive names. Your team will thank you when the library has hundreds of assets.

Adding Assets to a Collection

There are two ways to add assets.

During Upload

When uploading new files, you can select a target collection from the upload dialog. The assets are added to the collection automatically once the upload completes.

From the Asset Library

1. Browse or search for the assets you want to organize
2. Select one or more assets using the checkboxes
3. Click Add to Collection from the action bar
4. Choose the target collection
5. Click Confirm

An asset can belong to multiple collections. Adding an asset to a new collection does not remove it from any existing one.

Managing Collections

Editing a Collection

1. Find the collection card
2. Click the three-dot menu (⋮) in the top-right corner
3. Select Edit
4. Update name, description, or visibility toggle
5. Click Save

Viewing Modes

Switch between display modes using the view toggle:

• Grid view -- Visual card layout with thumbnails
• List view -- Compact row layout for quick scanning

Keyboard navigation is supported for accessibility.

Removing Assets from a Collection

1. Open the collection
2. Select the assets you want to remove (checkboxes)
3. Click Remove from Collection from the action dropdown

This only removes the association. The asset itself is not deleted and remains available in the global library.

Deleting a Collection

1. Find the collection card
2. Click the three-dot menu (⋮)
3. Select Delete
4. Confirm the deletion

Deleting a collection does not delete the assets inside it. They remain in the global asset library and any other collections they belong to.

Filtering and Searching

Filter by Collection

Use the Collection dropdown in the asset library to view only assets in a specific collection. This is the fastest way to find what you need.

Search

The search bar at the top of the asset library lets you search by:

• File name -- Partial or exact match
• Tags -- Keywords assigned to assets
• File type -- Filter by images, audio, or data

Combined Filters

You can combine collection filters with search and type filters. For example, show only PNG images in the "UI Sprites" collection.

Best Practices

• Create collections early -- Set up your structure before uploading hundreds of files
• Use consistent naming -- Agree on naming conventions with your team
• Keep collections focused -- A collection with 500 mixed files is not more useful than no collection at all
• Tag assets -- Tags complement collections and make search more powerful

Next Steps

• Upload assets to start building your library
• Manage asset metadata and lifecycle
