How Do I Manage My Assets?

...

Using the CDN

The BlinkMobile Admin Manager now includes the link to ‘Manage Assets’ under the ‘Manage...’ menu option. This tool allows you to add/edit/delete assets to answerSpaces as well as copy or move assets between CDN locations. It removes the need to store multiple copies of the same asset (for example corporate logos) within multiple answerSpaces.

All the CDN locations associated with your Organisation's answerSpace will be shown below the asset listing for the current answerSpace.

If you wish to move, copy or delete an asset from a CDN location, simply click on it and choose from the dropdown list:

Adding or Importing Assets to the CDN

When you want to add an asset to your CDN, it's really quite simple. 

Firstly, make sure your default CDN location is correct. (See here for instructions).

Choose Manage... Assets. The Asset Manager will appear. At the top of this screen is the Upload Pane:

Click 'Open' and the file name will appear in the Upload Pane. If you wish add another file, just click the '+add' button. If you wish to add multiple files that are in an archive, you can do this by clicking 'Choose File' and selecting the Archive file:
