Accessing the Media Library

The media library stores the images, videos and other files you use in your projects. Each project has its own folder in the media library. In the editor, you open the media library from the Media tab in the right panel or from the Add panel on the left.


Opening the media library from the Media tab


To open the media library from the Media tab in the editor:


  1. In the editor, click the Media tab in the right panel.

By default, the panel shows the files in the current project's folder in the media library. To view another project's folder, choose that project in the dropdown at the top of the panel.

The Media tab also works without opening the full media library. You can drag images, videos or Lottie files from your computer onto the Media tab to upload them to the folder shown, and drag files from the tab onto the page.


Opening the media library from the Add panel


To open the media library from the Add panel in the editor:


  1. In the editor, click Add in the left panel.
  2. Under Assets, click My library.

By default, the panel shows the files in the current project's folder in the media library.

  1. Click Open library.

The media library opens full screen, in the My images tab, in the folder of the project selected in the panel.


Tabs in the media library


The full media library has four tabs:


  • Overview: an area to upload new files, with shortcuts to the other tabs.
  • My images: all files and folders in your account's media library. Here you can upload files, create folders, rename or delete files and folders, and select existing files to use.
  • Search online: a collection of free images and icons that you can search and add to your media library.
  • Image bank: connects an external image bank. To connect Bynder yourself, click Open Bynder in this tab and log in. To link MediaFiler or a different image bank, contact Maglr.


Depending on your account, the Search online or Image bank tab may not be available. In that case, the media library opens without tabs and shows only your files.
