Asset Categories help you structure and organise your files across the platform, making it easier to manage and locate assets for programmes, seasons, and episodes.
Where to find Asset Categories
Navigate to:
ONE Admin > Catalogue > Assets > Categories
Creating a New Category
Click + New Asset Category (top right)
Enter a name for your category
Click save
Your new category is now available when uploading assets
Editing a Category
Need to rename a category? No problem:
Click Actions > Edit next to the category
Update the name
Save your changes
This will update the category name across the entire site, including all assets already assigned to it.
Deleting a Category
Click Actions > Delete
Confirm the deletion
Important:
You can only delete a category if no assets are assigned to it
Once deleted, the category cannot be recovered
Why Asset Categories matter
Keep your assets well organised and easy to navigate
Improve workflow when uploading and managing files
Ensure consistency across programmes and content
Tips
Create categories before uploading assets to save time later
Use clear, consistent naming (e.g. “Press Kits”, “Images”, “Documents”)
Review categories regularly to remove unused or outdated ones
Avoid duplicates by checking existing categories before creating new ones
Well-structured categories make asset management faster, cleaner, and much more efficient for your entire team.
