Uploader profiles allow you to apply custom settings to a particular user, granting permissions to the user to approve the audio themselves and quick-creating Items automatically.


TABLE OF CONTENTS

Step 1: Create New Profile

To create an uploader profile head to preferences -> other settings -> manage uploader profiles (beta).



Step 2: Define Rules for Uploader Profile

These rules include information that will be transferred to the asset once it has gone through the set approval process, also defined in this step. 


Profile Name

This is an identifier for when you create future uploader profiles so you know which profile settings you are applying to the Uploader.


Item Name Structure

This will dictate the Item naming conventions of approved assets.


You can use placeholders to automate the Item titling based on the name of the audio asset uploaded, the date of upload, or to which customer the uploader is associated.


Item Description Structure

This will dictate the description associated with Items approved by the Uploader.

As above, placeholders can be used to automate description elements based on the uploaded asset.


Artwork

This sets the default artwork associated with the approved item.


Item Tags

This sets the default tags associated with the approved item.



Approval Required

When unselected, Uploaders with this Profile setting can approve their own asset uploads.


Published

This will determine whether approved Items are published or unpublished upon upload.


Publish delay

This will delay publishing time by the selected amount after the asset has been approved


Publish Duration

This will set a default duration for Item publishing


The example output will give you an idea of what to expect from assets uploaded from users with this profile.


Step 3: Save New Profile

When you are happy with the profile, click "Save Profile".


You can recall these profile settings when creating an uploader.
