Embedding assets

This feature is available only to Acquia DAM Classic Professional subscribers.

Acquia DAM Classic makes it easy to share links to assets in your digital asset manager, or embed those assets on a web page or email. Admins and contributors may access the links.

Embeddable downloads provide the added option to embed a thumbnail and a link to download the asset. You can track where the assets are embedded and how many times the asset has been downloaded.

For example, you can list your products on your website, including downloadable brochures that explain the product in details. With embeddable downloads, you can copy an embeddable code for a brochure directly from your DAM Classic. This code is then embedded on your website, allowing you to embed a thumbnail of the selected brochure.

Sharing a page link

Complete the following steps to obtain a page link that loads Acquia DAM Classic with the asset loaded:

  1. Sign in to Acquia DAM.

  2. Either search for an asset, or browse the folder hierarchy to find an asset.

  3. Double-click on the asset you want to share.

  4. In the Asset Details dialog, click the Get the permanent link for this asset icon.

  5. In the Get Links dialog, in the Page Links section, select a page link to share:

    • Brand Connect: A URL to load the asset in Brand Connect. The user must have permission to access Acquia DAM Classic Brand Connect to load the page.

    • WebDAM admin: A URL to load the asset in Acquia DAM Classic. The user must have permission to access Acquia DAM Classic.
