  1. Folder Organization: The Asset Manager now allows you to create folders to organize your files, making it easier to locate and manage assets. You can create nested folders to further categorize your files.

  2. Drag and Drop: To simplify the process of uploading files, Webflow has introduced a drag and drop functionality. You can now simply drag your files from your computer and drop them into the Asset Manager for quick upload.

  3. Bulk Upload: If you have multiple files that need to be uploaded, the new Asset Manager allows you to select and upload multiple files simultaneously. This saves time and effort when adding multiple assets to your project.

  4. Inline Image Editing: You can now make simple edits to your images directly within the Asset Manager, without the need to leave the editor. This feature includes basic editing options such as cropping, resizing, rotation, and more.

  5. Image Optimizations: The Asset Manager also provides options to optimize your images for the web. You can choose the desired image quality and Webflow will automatically compress and optimize the image size, ensuring fast loading times and better user experience.

  6. Search and Filtering: To make it easier to find specific assets, the Asset Manager now includes search and filtering functionality. You can search for assets by name or filter them based on file type, size, and upload date.

  7. Activity History: With the new Activity History feature, you can now keep track of all actions performed on your assets. This includes details such as changes made, who made them, and when they were made, providing a comprehensive audit trail.

These are just a few of the exciting features included in the latest release of Webflow's Asset Manager. They provide enhanced functionality and make it even more convenient to manage and organize your assets within the Webflow platform.
