Launch the Zoom Panel
Since Adobe Premiere, unlike other Adobe apps, does not allow third-party plugins to be opened without a project, click on any recent project or create a default project in Premiere.
Open the Zoom panel using Windows > Extensions > Evolphin Zoom option in Premiere
Install Adobe Extension
If you do not see an Evolphin Zoom panel under Window > Extensions > Evolphin Zoom, install the plugin manually using Installing Creative App Plugin.
Starting a New Project
Please review the article here on a new project workflow in Premiere. Once a project is opened and appropriate subfolders for collaboration checked out, you are ready to start editing.
Search for Footage or Graphics
Depending upon the defaults set up by your administrators, Search via Filters or Metadata may show up in the default search view.
Search via Filters
Click on Search tab on the panel, find footage to edit using the drop down filters or by typing in part of a file or folder name and then applying a filter. The filters are customizable by your administrators.
Search via Metadata
Click on the 
icon to switch to search everywhere mode. This allows you to do a global search that can match any metadata or file name automatically.
Linking
The footages that are linkable will show up with a link icon 
in the search results. These can be drag-n-dropped into Premiere bin or the sequence timeline for editing. If the link icon does not appear the element needs to be checked-out in your working copy using the checkout button 
Switching Proxies
Use the Links tab to browse assets that have been linked to the project.
If mid-res or low-res proxies have been generated by the transcoding layer, you can switch between proxies.
If a specific proxy doesn’t exist then switching from the links panel will not have any effect, the project will continue to stay linked to the initial resolution.
To switch a specific link to a low-res proxy make sure you check-out/download the low-res proxy first by clicking on the checkout button on the toolbar.

Use the Resolution drop down to change:

Links in Premiere Pro
In Premiere Pro, assets can be placed into the project. The assets that are added to compositions are checked into Zoom as linked assets.
While checking in an asset, check on the Check-in linked assets checkbox to check-in the linked files along with the PPRO project.
The links will get checked in along with the Premiere Pro project. The links will appear in the Links panel in the Asset Browser.
If you wish to check-in other files such as exports, graphic elements under the parent folder of the Premiere project make sure to select the “Check-in parent folder” option in the check-in dialog.

Smart Copy
Within Zoom, creating copies of files is easy using Smart Copy. Unlike conventional copying of files which takes up additional data, creating a Smart Copy allows a file to be copied and edited without having to duplicate data on the server. You can create smart copies of a file or an entire folder. For additional information on Smart Copy, see Smart Copy Assets .

Resolve Links
Resolve Links functionality, available in the Creative app panel can be used to replace broken/unversioned links in the main with the links in the working copy. It works on a file that was checked into Zoom Server along with all its links. Resolve links will not work properly if the links have been re-ordered. So, if there is a need to re-order the links in the main file, make sure to issue Resolve Links before re-ordering.
- Open the file for which you need to Resolve Links in the appropriate Creative App.
- Open the Evolphin Zoom panel by navigating to Window > Extensions > Evolphin Zoom.
- Make sure that the linked files are also checked out in your machine.
- Zoom 7.0: Via the fly-out menu, Click Resolve Links.
Zoom 6.0 or below: Click Resolve Links.
Resolve Links best practices:
- Scenario – There is a PhotoShop file Main.psd. It has links to ~/Desktop/links/Link1.jpg and ~/Desktop/links/Link2.jpg. Main.psd is checked-in to Zoom along-with the links and with Convert to WC checked. In this case, Main.psd, Link1.jpg, and Link2.jpg will all get checked into Zoom Server and the versioned copy of Main.psd would open up in PhotoShop. After check-in, resolve links will automatically run so that the links of Main.psd get updated to the versioned copies of Link1.jpg and Link2.jpg instead of the original link files in ~/Desktop/links. If it fails in any case, make sure to click on Resolve Links manually.
- Resolve links would look for files in the order – third party mount points, auto-checkout mount points, working copy. This means if you want to resolve paths only from the working copy, make sure auto-checkout mount point and third party mount points do not have copies of your linked files. For high-res files, by default the links will be resolved in the order of high-res, mid-res, low-res(auto-checkout mount point, working copy).
