Filtering Assets in the Library

Filters help you quickly narrow down asset results. They are available in the Library, Metadata view, and Search results. Whether you're searching by metadata, tags, profile, or file type, filters make it easier to find exactly what you need.

There are two main types of filters:

Saved Filters

Saved Filters are reusable filter configurations that can be applied with a single click. These filters are especially useful for recurring searches (e.g., product launches, brand folders, or campaign-specific assets).

Creating a Saved Filter

  1. Go to Library > Filters.
  2. Click [+ New Filter].
  3. The filter drawer will open. Set the criteria using quick or advanced filters.
  4. Click Save and enter a name for your new filter.

Editing and Deleting Saved Filters

If you have permission, you can edit or delete saved filters:

Note: Deleting a saved filter removes it for all users who had access to it.

Sharing Saved Filters

Administrators can create saved filters and make them available to other users. Shared filters appear in the filter panel for all users with access.

Quick Filters

Quick Filters are accessible while browsing the Library, Metadata view, or Search results. These are temporary filters and are not saved unless explicitly turned into a Saved Filter.

To Use Quick Filters

  1. Click the Filter button in the top right of the view.
  2. The filter drawer will open on the right.
  3. Select any combination of the available criteria.

The filter drawer also includes an Advanced Filters section for more complex filtering needs. You can define specific conditions and use logical operators to combine them.
