Are you concerned about maintaining consistent quality control for uploaded assets?
Do you want to ensure users are aware of copyright and licensing restrictions before downloading assets?
Do you need to track how users plan to utilize downloaded assets?
If you answered yes to any of these questions, then the Upload/Download Settings can be valuable tools for you.
These settings allow you to manage how assets are uploaded, downloaded, and tracked within your organization.
Improved Quality Control: Review new uploads before adding them to the main library to ensure they meet specific standards.
Enhanced User Awareness: Inform users about copyright, licensing, and usage restrictions associated with assets.
Responsible Asset Usage: Encourage users to consider how they will use assets before downloading.
Streamlined Version Tracking: Manage and track different versions of the same asset effectively.
This feature allows you to download a version of the asset where some of the original metadata is replaced with corresponding metadata values from HIVO. This can be useful for maintaining consistency or privacy when sharing assets.
Enable this option to require review of new uploads by users with "Can Approve" permission before adding them to the main library. This helps maintain quality control and consistency.
Enable this option to display a warning to users before downloading assets containing certain metadata (copyright, license, or usage). This raises awareness about usage restrictions.
Users are given a text field in the warning dialog, where they must enter a short description on how they will use the Asset(s) after downloading them. This helps you to Track and Manage Asset Usage within your organization.
Consider creating a clear and consistent naming convention for your assets.
Communicate your upload and download policies to all users within your organization.
You can specify where this feature applied by entering the metadata names that you would like to display a warning for or leave blank to use the default fields (copyright / license / usage).
By following these steps:
Enter the tags you want to display the warning for (e.g. "collection", "Product").
Then, press “Enter” from your keyboard to add the next metadata (if needed).
Finally, remember to choose “SAVE CHANGES” to officially apply it.
Enhanced data security: Protect digital assets from unauthorized access and misuse.
Regulatory compliance: Meet compliance requirements related to copyright, intellectual property rights, and data protection.
Effective management: Monitor asset usage and ensure that assets are used for their intended purpose.
Improve efficiency: Automate the upload approval process and reduce admin burden.
