Design Resources Management

Feature overview

The following table lists the features and storage capacity available for each DataV edition.

View asset capacity

The capacity limits for each DataV edition are as follows:

• Enterprise Edition: 5 GB

• Professional Edition: 10 GB

• Premium Edition: 99 GB

In the upper section of the Design Resources page, you can view the used and remaining capacity for My Design Resources in the current workspace.

Note Assets are isolated by workspace, but the storage capacity is calculated by account. If My Design Resources shows no design resources but the remaining capacity is partially used, design resources in other workspaces under the same account may be occupying the storage capacity.

Upload local files

You can upload local image, video, and model files as design resources on the Design Resources page.

To upload a local file:

1. Click Create Design Resource and select Upload Image, Upload Video, or Upload Model from the drop-down list.

2. In the dialog box, drag a local file to the drop zone, or click the icon in the drop zone to browse and select a file. See Supported formats and size limits for details on supported formats, size limits, and batch upload options.

3. The uploaded files appear in the area below the drop zone.

   

4. In the Add To section in the lower-left corner of the dialog box, select Existing Group or New Group.

   • Existing Group: Select an existing group from the Group Name drop-down list. By default, assets are added to All (ungrouped).

   • New Group: Enter a new group name in the Group Name field.

5. Click OK to finish the upload.

Link external resources

You can create design resources from external URLs. External resources support Image, Video, and Model types.

Note External resource files have no size limit and do not consume your storage capacity. Model design resources are available only in the Professional Edition and above.

To link an external resource:

1. Click Create Design Resource and select Create from External Resources from the drop-down list.

2. In the Create Design Resource dialog box, configure the following parameters.

   Parameter	Description
   Address	(Required) Enter the URL of an external resource file that is accessible over the Internet.
   File Name	Enter a custom name for the design resource file.
   Type	Select the file type of the external resource. Valid values: Image, Video, and Model.
   Thumbnail	Set a thumbnail for the external resource. You can enter the URL of a thumbnail image, or drag and drop (or click to browse) a local image as the thumbnail. Note Choose a small image for the thumbnail.

   

3. Click OK to create the external resource asset. Click Cancel to cancel.

   Important

   • Only complete embedded glTF or GLB model files are supported for the glTF format. The separated glTF format (.gltf + .bin) is not supported.
   • If a loaded model displays rendering artifacts, the triangle count in a single mesh may exceed 4294967296/3 (approximately 1,431,655,765). To avoid this, reduce the polygon count in your modeling software before uploading.

Manage groups

The Design Resource Groups section on the left side of the page lets you organize resources into groups. The following operations are supported.

Operation	Description
Add a group	In the Design Resource Groups section, all design resources are displayed by default. To add a group, click New Group, enter a name for the new group in the field that appears, and press Enter.
Delete a group	Hover over a group in the Design Resource Groups section and click the icon to the right of the group. In the Delete dialog box, confirm the deletion. Note After you delete a group, the design resources in that group are moved to Ungrouped. The resources themselves are not deleted.
Rename a group	Hover over a group in the Design Resource Groups section and click the icon to the right of the group. In the name field, enter the new group name and press Enter.
