Download individual assets
USM Content
Guest users can download individual assets if their organization’s settings enable downloading.
Download from the Brandfolder view
When viewing a Brandfolder, you can download individual assets by hovering over the asset and selecting the ellipses. From the dropdown menu, select Download. If a file has multiple attachments - noted by the attachment icon and count in the bottom right-hand corner of the tile - downloading from the Brandfolder view downloads a ZIP file with all the merged attachments.
Download from the asset modal
When you view an asset, you can choose to download all the attachments within the asset or an individual attachment. Select Download [#] in the bottom right-hand corner to download all attachments. To download an individual attachment, select the download icon from the attachment list.
Format and resize
To change the format or size of an image, select Options to the left of the attachment download icon. Then in the menu, select your desired file type and size options.
Brandfolder always respects the original aspect ratio. When entering a width or height, the other will update automatically.
Crop
If the Brandfolder you are visiting has cropping enabled, selecting Export Options brings you to the cropping interface.
Brandfolder Administrators can choose to enable preset crop types or prevent users from unlocking the aspect ratio when utilizing freeform cropping. Depending on the Brandfolder settings, Guest users can crop or zoom the image as they would like. Guest users can also select an output file type of their choosing.
Download alerts
Admins can enable the download alert setting in General Settings so that each time a user downloads an asset, they see a personalized message. The customized message allows you to add agreements, usage guidelines, or directions each time an asset is downloaded. This setting can be set at the Brandfolder and Collection levels. By default, if a Brandfolder has a download alert, its collections will have the same download alert enabled.
If an Organization has the download alert activated on a Brandfolder or Collection, users cannot use the organization-level search.
