Adding digital assets and assigning them correctly to your products/SKUs can be done in 3 main ways.
Manual Upload & Manual Linking
Pick and link specific assets to represent specific products
Manual Upload & Bulk Linking
Import a spreadsheet with a column containing at least the following 2 columns:
- The Item IDs of your products
- The name of the image prepended with file:// (eg: file://imagename.jpg)
Automated Upload & Bulk Linking
Import a spreadsheet with a column containing at least the following 2 columns:
- The Item IDs of your products
- A web accessible URL starting with "http://", "https://" that ends with the name of the image. (eg: https://the/path/to/your/image/imagename.jpg
Note: The URLs must point to a single image and nothing else
For both "Bulk Linking" options above, you'll need to tell PDX Syndication that those attributes are to be interpreted as "Assets" otherwise the data you upload will be interpreted as text.
To tell PDX Syndication that the attributes you have added are Assets, do the following:
Head over to the Administration > Attributes from the side menu:
Find and select the attributes that need to be interpreted as "Assets" rather than text and from the green action menu select the "Convert to Asset" option.
Your images should now appear in the Digital Assets page and as thumbnails in your master Data.
Notes:
File size is limited to 100mb per asset (image or pdf)
File extensions and names are case sensitive
