# Adobe Premiere Pro

The HIVO Premiere Pro extension integrates your HIVO library directly into your non-linear editing (NLE) workspace. Editors can seamlessly search, preview, and import media assets (video, audio, images, PDFs) or manage master Premiere Pro projects without leaving the application.&#x20;

### Installing the HIVO Extension for Premiere Pro

* Visit the listing page directly on Adobe Exchange [here.](https://exchange.adobe.com/apps/cc/100712/hivo-connector)
* Or Open Adobe Premiere Pro on your computer > Go to the **Window menu > UXP plugins** to access Creative Cloud.&#x20;

### Logging into HIVO via the Premiere Pro Extension

To begin utilizing your cloud assets, you must authenticate through the Login tab using one of the two available options:

* **Standard Login:** Input your authorized corporate Email and Password. Ensure your account has been granted the necessary permissions to use the Premiere Pro Connector.
* **Passwordless Login** (for SSO users): If your organization utilizes Single Sign-On (SSO) authentication, select the Passwordless option to log in via your identity provider securely.

### Importing Assets into Premiere Pro

Each asset card in the connector list displays a thumbnail preview, the file name, the file size, and the creation date. Beneath each asset title, you can instantly **see and select different versions**, such as original, thumbnail, or web.

You can import assets from your cloud HIVO library directly into your active workspace layout:

* Locate the asset you need within the **HIVO Connector** panel.
* **Select the specific Version** of the asset you wish to use.
* The connector will automatically manage the selected file inside the standard **Project Panel** of Premiere Pro.&#x20;

Once imported, the media asset will appear in your project bin as a ready-to-use element, complete with its duration and preview thumbnail, perfectly staged and ready to be dragged directly onto your editing timeline or sequence monitor.

**👉 Note on Asset Permissions:** User permissions within the Premiere Pro plugin sync completely with your corporate HIVO cloud library. You can only view and utilize assets that your account has been granted explicit access to by an Admin.

### Managing and Saving Projects (Project Tab)

The Project tab within the HIVO Connector allows you to monitor your current production parameters and safely sync your master Premiere Pro project file (.prproj) directly back to the HIVO library.

**🔹  Step 1: View Live Project Details**

When navigating to the **Project tab**, the connector displays a live status overview of your current workspace session, including:

* **Current Project Identity:** The exact name of the active editing file.&#x20;
* **File Size:** The total file size of your working project.
* **Linked Assets:** A structural list of all active assets currently used in your sequence that originate directly from your HIVO cloud library.

**🔹 Step 2: Save to HIVO**

* Navigate to the connector panel and click the "**Save to HIVO"** button.
* The connector will automatically package and upload your master project file directly to your designated HIVO storage destination.

### Advanced Saving Methods (Subsequent Saves)

Once your project has established an active link with the library, HIVO provides flexible saving methods include:

* **Save as New Asset:** Select this method if you want to branch off and save your current workspace state as an entirely independent, standalone project asset in your library, leaving your original cloud base file untouched.

<figure><img src="/files/j3l8OjE8raeotse4hia7" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

* **Save as New Version:** Select this method to overwrite or append an iteration to the existing cloud asset. A dialog box will prompt you to manage your options:
  * *Action:* Simply enter a brand-new, unique name into the **Version Name** input field and click OK. This updates your file history while keeping your workspace timeline unified.
