Media libraries will be removed

Support for media libraries ended on 24 July, 2026. The feature and its associated APIs will be removed in two steps:

  • August 2026 Refresh – the feature will be hidden in the admin UI for projects that have no Media libraries.
  • September 2026 Refresh – the feature and all associated APIs will be fully removed.

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

To create media libraries in your project:

  1. Open the Media libraries application.
  2. Select New media library.
  3. 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.
  4. Save the created media library.

The system creates the media library and the associated folder on the file system. An editing interface for the media library appears.

On the General tab, you can edit the properties that you entered when creating the media library:
