Managing your media just got easier

Read for the full list of recent updates to the Uploads & embeds

Written by Naomi Chalmers

We've completely reimagined Uploads & embeds to make managing your newsroom assets faster, easier and more flexible. From lightning-fast uploads and powerful search to collections and folders, these updates are designed to streamline your workflow today while providing a foundation for even more enhancements in the future.

A faster experience

Uploads & embeds has been rebuilt from the ground up to improve performance.

You can now:

  • Load thousands of files almost instantly.

  • Search across all your uploaded files using a full-text search.

  • Upload up to 50 files at once with a significantly faster upload experience.

Organise files with collections

Collections help you group related files together for quicker access.

Files can belong to one or multiple collections while remaining available in your main Uploads & Embeds library.

Bulk actions

Managing large numbers of files is now much easier.

Select multiple files to add them to a collection or delete in bulk.

Select a file, then hold SHIFT, and finally click on the final file in the range you'd like to select all.

Add more information to your files

Each file now supports additional metadata, including:

  • About text

  • Copyright information

  • Download permissions

You can also choose whether individual files should be downloadable from your newsroom.

Improved previews

We've updated file previews to better display:

  • Transparent PNG images

  • Documents

  • Other uploaded file types

Transparent images are also automatically recognised to help ensure they're displayed correctly throughout your newsroom.


These updates lay the groundwork for future improvements, allowing us to continue adding new functionality to both Uploads & embeds and the Media bank over time.
