Add Content
Learn how to add content to the Content page.
Click the
button at the top of the sidebar or the empty card in the Content page to add a new asset to the project.
Choosing Assets
You can either select files from local storage, Google Drive, search the echo3D library, or drag and drop files for new assets.
You can set if you want to maintain the uploaded folder structures, and also set how you want to handle Duplicate Detection.
We detect duplicate entries within the same project during the upload process with the aim of preventing accidental duplicate uploads as well as saving our users credit expenditure on storage when a duplicate entry is desired. You can choose to reupload all duplicates, skip all duplicates, or be prompted on a case by case basis.
If you confirm, the operation will resume and credit for API call usage will be deducted from your account but forgoing the usual deduction of credits for storage usage since the duplicate entries will reference the same files in our storage.
We detect duplicates using MD5 checksum of the asset(s) at the time of upload. As this is the case, we currently don't consider entries to be duplicate of one another if they are only visually similar. For example, if model A looks like model B but has a slight difference in their file content, they will not be considered duplicates of one another.
At this point, you can proceed with the upload if you do not want to add any additional settings, or you can continue adding customized behavior for your uploads. The assets will all be added to a queue and processed sequentially.
Adding Metadata and Tags
You can choose to add Metadata and Tags that will be applied to all of the uploaded assets.
You can toggle if you want tags to be AI generated for your asset, or Quick Add suggested tags from your other assets in the collection.
Note that if your collection has Required Keys set, you will not be able to proceed with an upload until you have added a value for those keys.
Adding Automatic Optimizations
You can choose what additional operations will be performed on each uploaded asset.
A GLB and USDZ version of your model will always be created. You can choose additional conversions as well.
You can choose to generate a Draco Compressed or Ultimate Compressed version of the models as well.
Additional storage and usage rates apply.
Adding Automatic Sharing
You can choose which collections and users on your current collection that you want to share all of the assets with. You can also set if you want the assets to be locked.
