A few essential concepts are worth pointing out:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>An Asset can be <strong>any file<\/strong> whatsoever. Various <em>Asset Types<\/em> are available to categorize it e.g. as <em>Screener<\/em>, <em>Key Art<\/em>, <em>Script<\/em> or similar.<\/li>\n<li>An Asset is composed of both a <strong>metadata entry<\/strong> (comprising properties such as <em>Title<\/em>, <em>Asset Type <\/em>and other metadata) and the <strong>file itself<\/strong>. The Asset metadata entry can theoretically exist without an Asset file itself, or the actual file on an Asset entry can be replaced.<\/li>\n<li>An Asset can be <strong><a href=\"\/?p=3160\">assigned<\/a> to one or multiple <a href=\"\/?page_id=2822#product\">Products<\/a><\/strong>. This adds the Asset to the assigned Products&#8217; repository of Assets. Of course, Product assignments can be modified later.<\/li>\n<li>You can flag an Asset as a <strong>Marketing Asset<\/strong>. The system uses these to represent its assigned Product(s) on the client site. Typically, a Marketing Asset would be e.g. a <em>Trailer<\/em>, <em>Screener<\/em> or <em>Image<\/em>. If a video is used as a Marketing Asset, it will become streamable. When viewing the <em>Assets<\/em> tab on a Product, this state is indicated by a filled-in yellow star (which can also be clicked to change the state).<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"\/?p=3119\">Access levels<\/a> and <a href=\"\/?p=2955\">Groups<\/a> can be used to <strong>manage availability<\/strong> of Assets to specific <a href=\"\/?p=2900\">User Roles<\/a> or even individual Users.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>MediaStore&#8217;s Assets section allows you to upload files of any  [&#8230;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":9,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[417,414],"tags":[50,88,77,51,93,434],"class_list":["post-3139","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-v2-asset-management","category-v2-user-guide","tag-access","tag-asset","tag-assign","tag-group","tag-marketing-2","tag-product"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/mediastore.support\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3139","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/mediastore.support\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/mediastore.support\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mediastore.support\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/9"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mediastore.support\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=3139"}],"version-history":[{"count":7,"href":"https:\/\/mediastore.support\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3139\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":3929,"href":"https:\/\/mediastore.support\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3139\/revisions\/3929"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/mediastore.support\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=3139"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mediastore.support\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=3139"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mediastore.support\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=3139"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
