Directory of the supported apps and sites we use for ministry
Adobe Experience Manager (AEM) allows you to upload a number of different file formats:
To see a full list of supported file types, please visit Adobe's documentation on the topic. The procedure for doing so is the same as described below.
If you are interested in using video or audio files in your site, please do not upload them to the DAM folder for your images. Contact aem@cru.org and we will assist you with this process.
Clicking on the icon will bring you to another menu with a plethora of options. To get to the place where you can upload or edit an asset, click on the Files icon.
Once you go through to files, you will find that the files are separated by site. Clicking through deeper will dive into the subfolders where you can create, edit, delete, move assets.
One thing to keep in mind when you are going through the subfolders, is that there are several ways to get back up the chain. One way is to click on the drop-down where you see 2019Collection, it will reference higher levels in the hierarchy of folders.
When you name an asset, you’ll see that you have the ability to give it a Title and a Name. The Name, is how it is stored in the DAM system (Data Asset Management).
Clicking on the actual image of an asset brings up a list of other options on the top header bar. You can also view tiles by tiles or a list, by clicking the display option in the top right corner.
If you would like to add an image asset to a web page, you can do that from the edit screen within an actual page.

All digital assets, metadata and content of Microsoft Office and PDF documents are extracted and made searchable. Search allows sophisticated filtering on assets and fully respects the proper permissions.
Assets is a Digital Asset Management (DAM) tool that is fully integrated with the AEM platform and enables your enterprise to share and distribute digital assets. Users across an organization can manage, store, and access images, videos, documents, audio clips, and rich media such as Flash files for use on the web, in print, and for digital distribution.
