The integration of the Image media type provides a powerful, simple, and out-of-the-box solution to add and manage high-quality image assets within Drupal Canvas.

When content creators create or update pages in Drupal Canvas, they can use any of the following standard components with the Acquia DAM integration to add and manage images from the linked Acquia DAM:

Using the Image component¶

Content creators can directly browse and select images from the linked Acquia DAM. This method offers a seamless, no-code experience with automatic synchronization.

For information about how to create an SDC component for an image, refer to this documentation.

Using the Code component¶

For custom layouts, an Acquia DAM image is exposed as a structured data object, including src, alt, width, and height, which is to be passed to custom components.

For information about attributes and how to use the image element, refer to this documentation.
