Upload Images, Files, and Create Tracking URLs

Set up your image & media libraries to easily use your marketing assets in your content & create redirect URLs for external media and other links. Once you add content, you can promote it through social media, your website, emails, and Landing Pages.

Add Images to the Image Library

Good images are more attractive and engaging to prospects. This includes images to use as buttons, social media icons, campaign creatives, banner headers, or assets to embed in your emails, forms, and landing pages.

Blocked File Types

Zip File Upload

By default, Act-On will unzip a .zip file and add all contained files to your library.

If you would like a file to stay in .zip format, add the .zip file to a folder and then save that folder as .zip before uploading it. 

Create Redirect URLs for External Media and other links

In addition to storing files inside your Act-On account, you can also add links to files or content that is hosted elsewhere. Act-On can create a redirect URL to redirect to anywhere on the web. These media links can be tracked for clicks & views just like any of your Act-On content.

To add a media link:

1. Go to Content > Media Library and click the Actions button.
2. Choose Add Media Link.
3. Add the full URL for the redirect.
4. Add a name for your internal reference and choose a folder within your Media Library.
5. Click Submit.

Using Your Media Files

There are image/media file pickers in many of Act-On's text editors where you can quickly choose a file to embed in a message or page. You can also get the URL for any file to use anywhere you'd like:

1. From your Image Library or Media Library, click the dropdown beside a file and select Public Content URL.
2. Copy that URL and use it to link to the file from any location, such as your corporate website.
