Drag and drop files anywhere within the Editor or the dashboard project page to upload.
Navigate to the Files tab in the top right of the UI and select the Upload button.
Upload directly to an element you’ve added to the project, such as Media.

<aside> ⚠️ Note: The maximum upload size limit for individual files is 100MB. The storage amount is 2GB per project on Plus and Pro plans, and a custom amount for Enterprise plans.

Browsing files

Files are stored within each Project. To browse the Files you’ve uploaded, navigate to the Editor view of a project and select the Files tab in the top righthand corner of the UI. From here, the File Browser allows you to search, filter, and label all uploaded files.

Removing files

Files can be removed individually, or they can be removed in bulk by navigating to the file browser and selecting Remove files. This mode lets you select as many files as you wish and remove them in a single click.

Additionally, while in the remove files mode, Select unused files will become available. This action shows the number of unused files in your project, and can select them all to be removed in bulk. This feature is helpful when looking to conserve storage space after finishing a project.

<aside> ⚠️ Note: File data is stored separately from project history and backups. Removing a file is a permanent action that cannot be reversed by restoring a previous backup of a project.

Additionally, removing any files from file browser in the editor that are used in a published project will remove them from the live site as well.

Take caution when removing files.

Labeling files

Labels are generic titles that can be used to group files together as collapsable sections in the file browser. Adding labels can be a helpful way to organize your files. Each file may have only a single (1) label applied at once. Labels cannot be nested.

Select a file, or the three vertical dots appearing on hover over the file.
Choose Label from the list of options.
Create a new label, or assign an existing label to the file.
The file appears below the selected label.

Replacing files

Files may be replaced after uploading by any other file. Replacing a file retains all existing links and references to the file in the Project, and updates them to the newer file. The replaced file will assume the name of the newer file.

Select the three vertical dots appearing on hover over the file.
Choose Replace from the list of options.
Select the new file from your operating system.
The file itself and all links to the previous file will update to the new file.

<aside> 💡 Tip: Standards does not currently support the ability to rename files after they’ve been uploaded. To remedy this, use the Replace feature to replace a file with the same file and different file name. The replaced file will use the newer name.

File downloads

You can create a download link to any file you’ve uploaded to a project. This helps you share important brand assets with a large team from a single place.

Create a download link to Files

Add content from the + icon at the top left corner in Editor, such as Text, Media, or Button.
Place the content element in your project using the + points and drag to preferred size.
With the element selected, select Link from the widget near the element.
Select Download file and then either Choose file or Upload file.
Review file choice and select Confirm.

<aside> 💡 Note: Standards allows you to set a custom download resolution for images you’ve uploaded. This can be defined from the contextual widget when setting a download link.
