Distribute adaptations
This guide explains how to distribute approved adaptations from Files to the channels your organisation has connected. Distributing uploads an adaptation directly to a connected channel, such as a social or advertising platform, without downloading it first.
Prerequisites
Before you begin, ensure you have:
-
An approved adaptation in Files. To get an adaptation approved, use Create and run a review.
-
At least one connected channel. An administrator sets up channels with Connect integrated channels.
-
Permission to distribute adaptations. If you cannot distribute, ask an administrator to check your template and integration permissions.
Distribute an adaptation
-
In My Content > Files, find the approved adaptation.
-
Open the actions menu and select Distribute.
To distribute several at once, select the adaptations and choose Distribute from the actions bar at the top of the list.
-
In the Upload Asset dialog, select the channel to upload to from the Upload to dropdown. The dropdown lists the channels connected to your workspace.
-
Complete any details the channel requires.
-
Select Upload.
The adaptations are uploaded to the selected channel.
| Distribution is available only for approved adaptations. |
View distribution history
After an adaptation has been distributed, you can see where it has gone.
-
In My Content > Files, select the adaptation and select Distribute to reopen the Upload Asset dialog.
-
Open the Upload History tab. This shows the channel each upload went to, who uploaded it, and when.
A reference also appears in the adaptation’s details panel once it has been distributed.
