Creating DAM Public Access Links

Public access allows you to send a link to an asset to anyone in the world — and they don't need access to your Konvert™ Digital Asset Management (DAM) portal to see it. By sharing the link, your audience will be able to view or download the asset from the asset's Public Asset page (Fig. 1). 

In this article, we will explain:

• How to enable public access for an asset
• How to copy and share you public access link

ENABLE PUBLIC ACCESS FOR AN ASSET

You can enable public access for a new or existing asset in your DAM. 

Enable Public Access for a New Asset: To enable public access for a new asset, select the Allow Public Access checkbox (Fig. 2) when uploading. To learn more about uploading an asset, visit the Uploading an Asset article. 

Enable Public Access to an Existing Asset: To enable public access to an existing asset, locate your asset in your digital asset library and click on the information button (Fig. 3) located below the asset name. This will open the Asset Editor page. Click on the Manage Public Access button (Fig. 4) at the top-right corner of the page and select the Enable Public Access checkbox (Fig. 4).

COPY AND SHARE YOUR PUBLIC ACCESS LINK

There are two ways to copy and share your public access link. 

From the Asset Editor page, click the Manage Public Access button (Fig. 4) in the top-right corner of the page and click on the Copy Public Link button (Fig. 4).  

OR

Locate the asset in your digital asset library and click on the Share button (Fig. 5) located below the asset name. The Public Asset page (Fig. 1) will open. Copy the URL from the address bar to share it with your audience.
