Digital Asset Management (DAM)
DAM introduction
Cloudinary's digital asset management (DAM) solution enables you and your creative and marketing teams to collaborate throughout all steps of your digital asset management workflow. From uploading photographers' photos and videos, to tagging and sharing them, performing sophisticated searches to find just the right assets for a particular new design or campaign, and up to the point that final assets are selected and ready to be delivered in your website or app by your developers. Your developers then use Cloudinary's media management API to programmatically manipulate and deliver your media, automatically optimized for quick and responsive delivery to your customers.

Media Library overview
The Media Library provides you access to all your digital assets and is the main touchpoint into the Cloudinary DAM solution.
From this view you can:
- Upload new images, videos, audio, or other files
- Create and navigate through folders or share folders with user groups
- Create and browse collections or share collections with user groups or external parties
- Perform advanced searches
- Select multiple assets to perform bulk operations including delete, add/edit tags, move, download, or review moderated assets.
- Select a single asset to view or update basic asset details, view or activate advanced asset analysis operations, or to generate transformations for that asset.
Additionally, account users with one of the Admin roles can perform a variety of DAM-related administration activities, including user and group management, setting asset management settings, and analyzing asset usage reports.
