System Administrators can generate public-facing URLs for assets stored in the Media Library.
CampaignDrive allows System Administrators and other users with the permission Can generate asset URLs to create a public-facing URL for all assets that have been uploaded into CampaignDrive's Digital Asset Management system, the Media Library.
Creating an Asset URL
- Copy the asset ID that requires an external-facing link from the Media Library.
- Click the Admin menu option from the top navigation bar. Under the Content tab, click on the Asset URL Generator link.
- Paste in the asset ID and click Generate.
- A public-facing URL for the asset has now been generated! Note that this URL is not stored with the asset information, so a copy of the URL should be stored somewhere offline for reference.
