Create media libraries

Media libraries will be removed

Support for media libraries ended on 24 July, 2026. The feature is hidden in the admin UI for projects that have no media libraries, and it will be removed together with all associated APIs in the near future.

See Media library migration for instructions on how to migrate your media library files to Content hub.

To create media libraries in your project:

Select New media library.
Enter the following details:
- Media library name – the name of the media library displayed in the administration and on the live site.
- (Optional) Identifiers – specify the code name if you wish to use a code name different than the pre-filled value.
- Description – text describing the media library.
- Folder name – the name of the folder where files will be stored in the file system.
