How to use ImageKit to Manage Digital Media Assets

Quick summary

ImageKit DAM is a digital asset management platform that lets teams import, organize, and distribute media files from a single centralized media library. It features AI-powered search, custom metadata, version control, in-app editing, and granular access controls to streamline asset workflows across teams.

Steps

1. Get started with ImageKit DAM, which helps you streamline storage, management, and distribution of all your digital assets.
2. Import digital assets from sources such as Google Drive, Dropbox, AWS S3, or your local device.
3. Click Upload to add your first asset to the media library.
4. Add metadata to improve the asset's discoverability — ImageKit lets you tailor metadata fields to your specific requirements.
5. Enhance discoverability further using AI-powered tagging on your uploaded asset.
6. Use the dedicated search bar to find any asset in your library with a single query.
7. Apply Advanced Search filters based on your custom organization scheme, tags, and file attributes to reach assets faster.
8. Combine multiple search parameters and click Search to retrieve matching assets.
9. Review your search results — with one query you now have all the assets you need.
10. Use AI Search to find all visually similar images based on your search query.
11. Let AI Search scan the library and return visually similar content with a single click.
12. Collect team feedback on assets in the same place, chronologically sorted.
13. Perform rapid edits directly within ImageKit DAM without leaving the platform.
14. View and restore any previous version — ImageKit tags all asset versions together for convenient retrieval.
15. Share assets with your team using granular access control across groups, folders, and collections.
16. Generate public links to share assets with external stakeholders who are not ImageKit DAM users.
