Add Resources

Caution

Before adding resources, consider whether you need to make them available for a single app or for all your apps. Resources uploaded from inside a folder will be available for that particular app, while resources uploaded from the root level (global folder) are shared between all your apps and are included in the configuration of all apps you generate.

To add resources, click + New Resource. You can upload resources individually or in bulk.

  • To add an individual resource, select File upload. In your file browser, select a single file to upload it.

  • To add resources in bulk, select Folder upload. In your file browser, select a folder to upload all the files inside it.

In the Settings popup that appears, edit the fields you need and click Save. Read Resources Settings to learn more about the Settings popup.

Move Resources

You can move resources from the root level to a folder, from one folder to another, or from a folder to the root level. To move resources, either individually or in bulk, click the checkbox (or click Select all) to select them and click Move to other folder.
