Exporting an Asset

There are two ways you can export an asset.

Nuxeo Export

You can export the asset as another type of file on the asset details screen.

  1. For a folder, search results, or collection, select one or more assets.
  2. From a folder, search results, collection, or asset details, at the top right, click the More (More actions icon) icon, and select Export (Export icon).
  3. On the Export window, select how you want the assets to export, such as Zip or PDF. It will automatically export the assets.

Note: XML export includes an .xml file with metadata along with the asset file.

Server Export

This exports one asset or all the assets in a project bundle, folder, or collection to a specific server location.

Note: This export is not browser dependent. Once you start the export, it will continue even if you close Nuxeo.

  1. For a folder or collection, select one or more items, or view the details for an asset. Note: You can also just open a folder. If nothing is selected, it will export the whole folder.
  2. At the top right, click the More (More actions icon) icon, and select Server Export (Export icon).
  3. If you click Server Export without selecting files, a pop-up will indicate the number of files in the folder and confirm that you want to export all. Click either Export Anyway or Do not Export and select specific files.
  4. Select the server location where you want the assets downloaded to.
  5. Click Export. The assets will start downloading. You will get a message in the lower left “Exported to Server” when it is complete. The assets are listed by their file name, which may not be the same as the title.
