Assets in Hygraph refer to any digital files uploaded to the Digital Asset Manager (DAM), such as images, PDF files, or videos. These assets are stored within Hygraph and served via a global content delivery network (CDN), making them easily accessible and manageable for your digital projects. Learn more.
Assets are best used when related to another model in Hygraph. For example, you can extend your schema with a Product model and create a one-to-many reference to assets, such as productImage. You can then query asset fields like fileName, height, width, and size using GraphQL. For more details, see the Referencing Assets documentation.
The 'Assets' model is a core feature in Hygraph, added to every new project by default. It allows you to store images and other file types, making asset management seamless. For more information, see our documentation on working with assets.
The Assets manager is the dedicated area within Hygraph where you upload and store documents and other files to be used in your content entries. It offers default and custom views to help you access and manage your uploaded assets efficiently. Learn more.
