To open the Web Client, open the URL http:\/\/[YourZoomPreviewServer]:8873\/webclient<\/span> in a web browser. Here, [YourZoomPreviewServer] is the hostname or IP address of your Zoom Preview Server. 8873 is the usual port for non-SSL setups, but check the port in use for your Zoom setup. The protocol HTTPS may be used instead of HTTP if SSL is implemented for your Zoom setup. Again, the port for SSL setups is usually 8973, but you should check with your Zoom administrator. On launching the Web Client, a login screen is shown to log into Zoom, or it may auto-login based on an existing user session.<\/p>\n\n\n\n After logging in, let us see which sections are available for use in the Web Client. The major components are Home, Assets, Collections, Sharing collections and Searching for assets. These are explained in detail below:<\/p>\n\n\n\n The Homepage<\/span> is shown after login. Alternatively, click the logo The logged-in user’s profile picture is shown in the top right corner of the window (next to the notification icon if it is available). Click the profile picture to open the User menu<\/span>. The user may update their password or profile picture by clicking Edit User Profile<\/span>. The right side panel on the Homepage<\/span> shows activity and comments in the projects accessible to the logged-in user.<\/p>\n\n\n\n If we scroll down, the logged-in user’s favorite assets are displayed (if the user has favorite assets). To add or remove an asset as a favorite, click the star Spotlight assets are also displayed if these are configured by the admin. Only admin users can add or remove spotlight assets. Click Edit<\/span> in the Spotlight section. Click the You can upload files conveniently through the home page by dropping them in the Easy Upload<\/span> box. Alternatively, to browse for assets to upload, click the The upload status window shows From Zoom 7.1, users may also upload assets by dropping on the Assets list or Collection detail page. Check the Assets<\/a> and Collection details<\/a> sections for more information.<\/p>\n\n\n\n If the logged-in user has any unread notifications, then the bell In the Notifications panel, view comments for a collection by selecting the collection in the Comments tab. Click any comment to go to the Asset in collection page showing all comments on the asset. The Asset in Collection page is shown here<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Click on the bell icon again to hide the Notifications panel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The assets page shows assets available to the logged-in<\/span> Zoom user<\/span> as asset thumbnails under projects and collections visible to the logged-in Zoom user<\/span>. Only those assets are shown which are accessible to the user for their role and assigned projects. This is the same set of assets that are visible to this user inside the Asset Browser. The user is also allowed those operations on the assets that they can perform in the Asset Browser.<\/p>\n\n\n\n From Zoom 7.3 onwards, by default, assets are displayed <\/span>hierarchically<\/span> under their respective projects. Alternatively, a comprehensive list of all assets available for the logged-in user is also available by <\/span>toggling<\/span> the Folder Navigation mode as explained below. This view is similar to the way assets were shown on the Assets page before Zoom 7.3.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n By default, the Folder Navigation Mode is enabled. In this viewing mode, the user can also choose whether to view the folder tree or not. By default, the Folder Tree is enabled so the folder tree structure is displayed on the left side of the page. Choose to disable only the Folder Tree or the Folder Navigation Mode altogether by clicking the sliders for each of these in the Configure View menu. Click the Configure View When only Folder Tree is disabled then the assets are displayed in their respective folders as per the Zoom repository but the folder tree is not visible on the left side.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n The number of assets visible against the number of assets filtered is shown above the assets display panel. The filters applied are also shown above the assets display. See more about filtering here<\/a>. Right after the asset numbers is a reload button The + New Folder<\/span> button allows users to create sub-folders within a folder viewed in the Assets page. If the Folder Navigation mode is disabled then the + New Folder button also disappears.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In the far right, the Sort By drop-down shows the sort parameters along with sort orders. The selected sort parameter and order are prefixed with a The Configure View The Customize View window is displayed. The user can select or remove additional information to be shown about the assets on the asset thumbs in the Assets page. The user can also search within the metadata fields using the Search box on top.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The assets displayed can also be narrowed down using filters above the assets display. The filters work when the Folder Navigation mode is enabled or disabled. Select one or more filtering criteria to filter assets that meet all selected criteria. Click Clear All Filters<\/span> to remove all filters and see all available assets for the user again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n These filtered searches may be saved from the Saved Search<\/span> menu in the right corner. You can also load previously saved searches from the list.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Some actions may be performed on the asset thumbnails displayed on the Assets page. Favorite or unfavorite an asset by hovering over the asset thumb and then clicking the star To rename or delete an asset, hover over the asset thumb and click …<\/span><\/strong> for a popup menu of options as shown below. A user with admin rights on a project also gets the option to add an asset to the spotlight from this popup menu. For other users, Add to Spotlight is not available.<\/p>\n\n\n\n When you hover over an asset thumb, another option is to select the asset by clicking the select circle in the top right corner of the asset thumbnail. With at least one asset selected, click anywhere on another asset thumbnail to alternately select or deselect it. After selecting an asset, you can also hold the Shift<\/span> key and click on another asset thumb to select all assets between the two.<\/p>\n\n\n\n A selection menu bar appears above the assets display panel when at least one asset is selected.<\/span> The selection menu has actions to perform on the selection. From the selection menu, you can choose to add assets to a collection Click (clear)<\/span> to deselect assets and stop working with the selection. The selection menu bar also disappears.<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/a>If you click the Edit Metadata button If you click the Add to collection button When you click an asset thumb, the asset details are shown on the asset details page. Metadata details for the asset are also displayed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n You can crop the asset or add text by clicking the respective buttons. After these changes, you can download the asset by clicking the Download<\/span> button. You can also download a sample of the asset after applying some modifications. For the sample, you can crop, add text in various font styles, or apply a preset. Presets are selected from the Presets drop-down list. When applying a preset, specify other properties associated with the preset, like width, height, or format. Various options are available depending on the preset chosen.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n For some file formats, you can also create new assets containing these modifications over the original asset.<\/p>\n\n\n\n For video files, you can see a 360 view. You can also choose to download the original video or a modified sample of the video. You can clip a sample of the video to download or create a new video asset. You can also apply a preset to modify the sample video. Choose a preset and its associated options, then click Download<\/span> to download a modified sample of the video after applying that preset. You can also download the video at various preset resolutions, like 2160 or 1080 pixels.<\/span> Again, the original asset is not modified in the Zoom repository due to these modifications<\/span>. The newly created clipped asset is saved in the default Upload location set on the Preview Server<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n If an asset has AI data, then that is also shown along with the asset while viewing its details.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n All collections accessible to the logged-in user are displayed on the Collections page as collection thumbnails. Unlike the Assets page, the Collections page may also be configured to be accessible to external guest users. To know more about access rights on a collection, go to Collection types and permissions<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n For each collection, its name, duration since last updated, and the number of assets in it are shown. You can also filter and sort collections. You can change between list and grid views (Mosaic view is not available from Zoom 7.3 onwards). The number of collections displayed is shown above the collections display. The reload button In list view, the owner of the collection is also displayed to the right. To delete a collection, click the Delete Click the + NEW COLLECTION<\/span> button on the top of the collections list to add a new collection.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n The collections displayed can also be narrowed down using filters above the collections display. Select one or more filtering criteria to filter collections that meet the chosen criteria. Click Clear All Filters<\/span> to remove all filters and see all of the user’s available collections again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Some actions may be performed on the collection thumbnails displayed on the Collections page. For a user that has admin rights to the collection, a collection context menu is also available. Click …<\/span><\/strong> on a collection thumb for a popup menu of options as shown below. Only a super admin user or the owner of the collection get the option to delete the collection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n When you hover over a collection thumb, you can also select that collection by clicking inside the select circle in the top right corner of the thumbnail. With at least one collection selected, click anywhere on another collection thumbnail to select or deselect it in alternation. You can also hold the Shift<\/span> key after selecting a collection and then click on any other collection thumb to select all collections between the two.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n As soon as a collection is selected, a selection menu bar appears above the collections display panel. The selection menu has actions to perform on the selection. From the selection menu, you can choose to delete selected collections Click (clear)<\/span> to deselect collections and stop working with the selection. The selection menu bar also disappears.<\/p>\n\n\n\n When you click any collection thumb, the details about that collection are shown on the Collection details page. It shows all assets in the collection as well as other details like its status and tags assigned.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The actions that the user can perform with the collection are also visible. These are governed by the collection’s own permissions management. To know more about access rights on a collection, go to the section Collection types and permissions<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n A collection’s admin users can add or remove assets from the collection. They can also rename and download assets, rename the collection, update the collection status, add or remove tags, and update collection settings. They can update sharing parameters for the collection, add and remove users to the collection, and change the permissions assigned to existing users of the collection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n All users of a collection can view the collection’s thumb on the Collections page. They can also select and sort assets in the collection and change display views between list and grid. Each user of a collection can see the list of all users of the collection, along with each of their email IDs and permissions assigned.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In the Collection details page, the collection’s status is displayed right below the name of the collection. Collections can have one of the following statuses:<\/p>\n\n\n\n Admin users can update a collection’s status by selecting it from the status drop-down menu. Hover over and then click the collection status to see the list of options in the Status drop-down menu. Select a new status from the list of options.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Click Click on + Add Asset button to add a new or existing Zoom asset to this collection. Drop files or Browse to choose new files or type in the Find Existing Asset box to choose assets to add. Click Add Assets to Collection to add the selected assets to the collection in the background. The window closes and the user is free to resume working with the Web Client.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The progress of the asset upload is shown in the top right corner of the window. Hover over the upload progress bar to see a list of all pending uploads running concurrently.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Click any upload progress entry from the list to view the upload status details.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Before the uploads are complete, you can click Cancel All Uploads to cancel that whole upload batch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Click + Add Tag to add a new tag to the collection. You can also click the x next to existing tags listed after the + Add Tag button to remove that tag from the collection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Click The options available on the Settings window are:<\/p>\n\n\n\n No one can work with an expired collection. If a user opens an expired collection then a prompt on the top of the page informs about the status of the collection. If you want to bring back an expired collection, click Change settings in the message to go to the Settings window to switch off the Expire Collection toggle.<\/p>\n\n\n\nHome<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
