The Digizuite Chrome Extension comes can be installed in two ways:

  1. Add the extension directly from Chrome Web Store (https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/digizuite-dam-connector/oaoljlnnfajdknoldafoelalijmaebkg?hl=en )

  2. Download the example from GitHub and customize to your exact needs

SSO is currently not supported due to restrictions in the Chrome Plugin. A fix is being sought.
Also notice that is not working in incognito.

Option 1: Get it directly from Chrome Web Store

 

Step 1: Add it to Chrome

Go here: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/digizuite-dam-connector/oaoljlnnfajdknoldafoelalijmaebkg?hl=en and click ‘Add to Chrome’ as shown below.

Step 2: Pin the Extension

Press the extension icon in the right corner and pin the Digizuite DAM Connector so you always have it available in the right corner.

Step 3: Configure the Extension with your Media Manager

When you click on the Digizuite logo to open the Extension then you see this the first time:

When clicking on ‘Go to options’ it takes you to a separate screen. If the screen says ‘blocked by chrome’ as below then simply refresh it.

You will then see this screen where you need to add your media manager url (requires 5.5.4):

The change url DOES NOT work with Chrome Extension. See screenshot below. You must change the URL in the options as shown above.

The extension will copy the URL of the asset by default but if you only need it to copy the asset id, then that is also an option by ticking the box.

Have in mind that the URL only works for 24 hours in the current version.

 

Changing the URL? Go to extensions and click on the Digizuite Extension.

 

Option 2: Get it from our GitHub public examples

1- Download Files

Go to https://github.com/Digizuite/embedded-ui-examples

Then download the whole project as a zip.

 

2- Extract and copy folder (digizuite-chrome-extension)

The only folder that is relevant to you is:

Place the folder somewhere that makes sense to you. Your desktop or a folder which does not get deleted.

3- Go into Chrome Extension

Go to your Chrome Browser and press Manage Extensions

4- Press ‘Developer mode’ and Load unpacked

Press the checkbox Developer mode so it turns blue. Then you can see ‘Load unpacked’.

It is important that you navigate all the way into digizuite-chrome-extension if you want to customize what happens on selection

 

5- Pin the extension and start using it

Now the extension is available to you here. Start using it!
