Multiple File Upload

All files loaded in a single batch will have the same tags applied. Additionally, each media from the batch will be assigned the same description and channels. (If description is not provided, the media title and description will default to the file name.)

Each job permits only a single upload to the server of one type of asset (either Documents, Images, Video, or Audio). Select all desired media in a single selection when the upload control opens. Once at least one media from a batch has been successfully transferred to the server (transferred, not yet created), you will be unable to select additional media for that same batch. If all media fail to transfer due to validation or network issues, you will be permitted to select media again.

Currently there can be MAX 20 media per batch (total inclusive size should not exceed 2 GB).
