Folders are one of the most powerful organizational tools in MarketScale to compile and categorize media over time.
To learn how to add your media to a folder, reference this article.
Once your media is filed in MarketScale, you can access the folder by clicking the folder tab on the media card.
This will bring up a list of all media within your Org that has been filed under this folder. You can click a piece of media in the folder to preview it, and to access its settings in Media Studio.
Within an individual folder, you can also combine multiple different uploads into a single edit request, which can then be access on your Home Feed like a typical upload.
To do this, just tick the check boxes next to the videos you want included in your edit request, or check "Select All Media" to choose every upload in a folder.
Then, click the "Request edit from folder" button, prompting the typical edit request form for you to fill out.
To browse through all folders within your Org, hover to the top right of the portal. Once there, simply click on the Folder icon, which can be found to the left of your profile icon.
In the Folders view, you'll be able to see every folder made by users within your Org. A little overwhelmed? No worries, there are plenty of ways to filter your folders.
The search bar allows you to look for a particular folder.
You can also filter your search alphabetically, by date created, or last changed. To reveal these additional options, hover over the dropdown arrow.
You now have several options to refine your search.
When you select a particular folder, you will get the option to share, rename, or delete it. You can access these options from two locations: on the folder icon itself and at the upper right corner of the organization folders section.
You can create a Favorites section by starring one or more folders.
In addition to this, you can also select two or more folders for an option to merge or delete them.
There is also a way to send entire folders in for editing in Studio. For this, select one or more folders and then choose the "Request edit from folders" option.
Once you do this, a panel will open up. This feature is especially useful for managing large sets of content efficiently, and maximizing the use of different uploads from different users for a single video.
Here, like with all edit requests in the platform, you can opt for a previously created style, choose the orientation, select a brand book that adheres to your visual guidelines and branding standards, and even add additional footage to your media.
Folders allow you to store media for long and short-term use, making it easy to locate the right media at the right time. For more information on why you should use folders, reference this article.
