iconik Update | New Posters, Better Jobs Page + More
Here's what's new:
• Posters
• Updated Jobs Page
• Accelerated ISG to ISG Transfers
• Collection Breadcrumbs
Media libraries will look better, be easier to navigate, and managing them will be more intuitive.
Having a clear vision yields better results in most things. Managing media is no exception. The big features in this update do just that, give you a clear vision of your media.
Posters
Now you can upload custom images or use video snapshots as posters. These will also become thumbnails that help you navigate your media with a clear visual representation. This means less scrubbing through clips, and more creating.
Posters can be used in a few different ways:
Use posters with media files
Use posters with collections—instead of a mosaic of assets
Use posters with placeholders
Enhanced Jobs Page
The jobs page is not new, but it has been improved a lot. It’s much easier to understand and customize. The jobs page dashboard is a place where you can create your own widgets. These can track failed jobs, a specific ISG, transcoder, and more. Whatever is important to you goes here.
The Jobs page has three main functions:
It gives an overview of all current jobs and job history in iconik
It allows you to easily find and recover failed jobs
It also allows you to set job priorities
With the new dashboard, you can do all these things with more ease.
Accelerated ISG to ISG Transfers
Need to send a new batch of dailies to a NAS down the hall? Then it doesn’t make sense to toss it through the cloud.
ISG to ISG transfers in iconik
To manage files across multiple on-premise storages, you can now transfer files between ISGs with great speed and zero egress charges because the entire process bypasses the cloud.
Collection Breadcrumbs
There are two questions we never want you to have when navigating your media:
Where am I?
Where do I go from here?
Crawling deep into a forest of media collections and sub-collections can be disorienting. Following a share link that just drops you into the middle of a massive media archive can be equally confusing.
But you don’t have to worry about that anymore.
collection breadcrumbs in iconik
Collections in iconik now have breadcrumbs. This will help you navigate through collection structures with a clear map of where you’ve been. Parent collections are always visible in the iconik UI so you can see exactly where in iconik you are browsing.
Better Support for Azure Blob Storage
We’ve allowed customers to use their existing storage with iconik from the beginning. Now, those with Azure Blob Storage will have more support.
This will enable:
Azure cloud storage scans in iconik
The ability to access Azure content from the iconik panel in Adobe products.
Wait, There’s More
