Managing a hub's content library


You can upload images or videos in a hub’s content library to share with other hub users and the hub owner.  Hub users can organize and store their assets (images, files, and videos) in the content library so that their assets can be used/shared for their events. Co-editors can also view, manage, upload, and select content library media. The hub’s content library allows event organizers to have quick access to shared media throughout a hub. Additionally, hub owners can add and remove media from their content library. They can also categorize their assets by creating folders.

The content library and image crop tool are available across the entire Zoom Events platform and will appear whenever you upload media to Zoom Events.

The media uploaded to the content library is moderated immediately. There are 3 states of moderation: Passing Moderation, Pending Moderation, or Failed Moderation.

How to add media to the content library

When users upload a new photo to the content library, the image crop tool will immediately launch to ensure that the photo fits the correct image dimensions; the original image will be saved to the content library, but the cropped image will save only to where it’s being uploaded. Hosts can use the same image from the content library in any of the different upload image options across the Zoom Events platform.

The image crop tool also appears for images that have previously been entered into the content library when selected; this ensures that users can format uploaded images to their preference for each image option (that has different sizes).

When users upload the videos within the hub's content library or event setup, the user can choose to upload from local files, and the uploaded recording from the hub listing can be re-used for event setup. The Content Library’s video formats include .mp4, .mov, .avi, .wmv, and H.264 files. The content library's recordings and videos can be used for the event detail page or video gallery.
