The following file types can be uploaded to the Asset Library (or Media Library):

Upload images, Lottie files, and documents

You can upload images, Lottie files, and documents to the Asset Library or Media Library in two ways:

• Click + Add new media in the top-right corner of either the Asset.
  Drag and drop files into the upload window, or click Choose files to select the file(s) from your computer.

Upload videos

In addition to images and documents, you can upload videos.

Upload your file with Foleon Videos:
Upload a video file directly to Foleon without relying on external platforms.

1. Click + Add new media in the top-right corner of the Asset Library or Media Library.
2. Select Embed a video from a URL.
3. Select your video source from the dropdown and complete the remaining fields outlined below.

⚠️ Use the standard watch URL format only:

• ✅ Supported: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=[VIDEO_ID]
• ❌ Not supported: https://youtu.be/[VIDEO_ID] (Share URL)
• ❌ Not supported: https://youtube.com/watch?v=[VIDEO_ID]&list=[LIST_ID] (Playlist URL)

Managing assets

Locate a file from the Editor

When working with large libraries, it can be hard to track down where a specific file is stored. From the Editor, you can quickly navigate to the exact folder a file is in.

1. Open your Doc in the Editor and navigate to the image or video you want to locate.
2. In the element settings, click Replace.
3. If the file is used as a background on a block, column, or card, click Change background, then hover over the image or video and click Replace.
4. The window will open with the file already selected.

See where an asset is used

Before editing, replacing, or removing an asset, you can check which documents are using it. This helps you understand the impact of any changes before you make them.

1. Find the file in the Asset Library or Media Library.
2. Click the quick actions menu (⋮) on the file.
3. Select Used in.
4. Review the overview of where the file is used:
   • 🟢 Live assets — the file is used in a published Doc or asset (green dot)
   • ⚪️ Draft assets — the file is used in an unpublished Doc or asset (grey dot)
5. Click the link to open the asset in the editor.

Replace an asset

Replace an image once, and every document using it updates automatically, without breaking existing links. This is useful when a file needs to be refreshed across multiple Docs.

1. Find the file you want to replace in the Asset Library or Media Library.
2. Click the quick actions menu (⋮) on the file.
3. Select Replace.
4. Review the list of documents where this file is currently used.
5. Click Continue to proceed.
6. Upload the new file.

Download files

To download a file you've previously uploaded:

1. Double-click a file, or select Preview from the quick actions menu (⋮).
2. Click the download arrow in the preview window.
