Every image, video and document you upload is kept in your Files library, ready to use in any layout. Here is how to upload, organize and clean it up.
What you’ll need
- Your files: PNG, JPG, MP4 or MOV on any plan; PDF and PowerPoint on the Standard plan or higher. The largest single upload is shown as Upload Limit in your account settings.
Steps
-
In the menu on the left, click Files. Click Upload Files to add files, or Create folder to make a folder. Use the folder list, Find a file, the file type and date filters and the sort order to find files, and switch between grid and list view on the right.
-
Click a file’s menu button (More options) for its menu: Preview, Rename, Add to Layout(s) or Remove From Layout(s), Set Expiration, Download, Move to folder and Delete. To move or delete several files at once, check them and use Move to folder or Delete selected above the grid.
-
To clean up, click Purge Unused Files (also under Tools). It checks every folder and deletes files that no layout uses; files used in layouts are kept.
Tip: Deleting a file also takes it off every layout that shows it. To take a file off screens on a set date instead, see File Expiration and Scheduled Slides.
What’s next
