Related assets

7 min

Related assets link assets together.

Within the library, you can associate any asset you have access to any other asset to create groupings or bundles, like the same product or even different language variations of the same asset to make them easy to find and use right from the library.

Go to the library and select an asset.

Open the Related Assets section.

Select Add Assets > Library. (You can also upload content from your computer.)

Select the assets you want to associate with the original asset and click Choose.

CMP associates the selected assets to your original asset and displays them in the Related Assets section

Relate multiple assets to each other

Relate a group of assets to each other in one action, so that each asset in the group displays the others in its Related Assets section. This is useful when assets belong together, such as images of the same product from different angles or language variations of the same asset. You do not need to open each asset and relate the others one by one.

To relate multiple assets to each other:

Go to the library and select an asset.

Expand the Related Assets section.

Select Add Assets > Library.

Select one of the following options in the Relate Assets window:

Link to "FILE_NAME" only – Only the original asset displays the selected assets as related. For example, Link to "fml3.jpg" only.

Link all assets to each other – Every selected asset, and the original asset, displays all the others as related.

Click Confirm.

CMP keeps existing relationships and does not overwrite them.
