Insert into any Host Application

The Smart Asset Picker can be inserted into any host application as an iframe to easily provide access to assets from your single source of truth. If you have the proper roles then you are able to access and login to the Smart Asset Picker from https://customer-mediamanager-url/embedded/ and then see the below view.

Code Block

  title: string;
  description: string;

  thumb: string;
  extension: string;
