Overview

The bottom section of the Assets sub-nav contains quick add shortcuts — a fast way to add different types of content to the library without navigating away from your current view.

A slightly quicker way to add Assets instead of clicking the + Add button in the top right nav.

+ Upload files

Opens a file picker to upload one or more files directly to the library. Files enter the standard upload and approval workflow.

+ Write a post

Creates a new text-based post asset — useful for announcements, brand stories, press releases, or any written content you want to store and share alongside visual assets.

The post editor supports rich text formatting, images, embeds, and links.

+ Add FAQ

Creates a new FAQ entry. FAQs are a content type in Brandkit designed for short question-and-answer articles (you are reading one right now - Ed) — useful for Q&A, usage instructions, or internal knowledge base content.

FAQs can be tagged, organised, searched, and surfaced on CMS pages using the FAQs smart section component. This Operating Manual is itself built from FAQ articles.

+ Add a guideline

Creates a new guideline article — a structured content type for documenting brand standards such as logo usage rules, colour specifications, typography guidelines, and tone of voice.

can be tagged, organised, searched, and surfaced on CMS pages using the Guidelines smart section component.

+ Add a link

Adds an external URL as an asset in the library. The link appears as a Asset card in the Grid and can be tagged, organised into albums, and shared like any other asset.

+ Import from Instagram

Connects to your Instagram Business Account and your imports posts as assets into the library. Imported posts include the image and original caption as metadata.

These Assets are downloadable from your Brandkit.

To configure the Instagram connection first, go to Admin > Integrate > Instagram.

+ Embed Instagram post

Adds a specific Instagram post to the library as an embedded asset, using a post URL. The post renders as a live embed rather than a static image.

These Assets are NOT downloadable from your Brandkit. When a user click the Asset they are taken to the original post on Instagram.com

+ Embed YouTube video

Adds a YouTube video to the library as an embedded asset, using the video URL. The video renders as a playable embed in the Grid and on asset detail pages.
