Using a CSV file, multiple media items can be created with different titles, descriptions, and tags. A sample file is provided in the Media Upload section as a reference for preparing data for bulk uploads.
Note: Each job allows only a single type of asset to be uploaded to the server (either Documents, Images, Video, or Audio). Therefore, ensure that the CSV file contains only one type of media. Use the provided sample CSV file, modifying only the rows. Do not change the column headers, as this may cause values to be ignored and result in job failure. Additionally, the link used to download the media must be a direct media link that is secure and authenticated. Also make sure as when entering channel name or visibility group, channel name or group id has to be same which is available in application (same with camel case format, with any special character, space etc.)
Currently there can be MAX 500 media per batch (inclusive size should not be greater than 2 GB).
