Media & Asset fields let you manage and style visual elements within your content entries. This section covers the two core field types:
  • Media
  • Color Picker

1. Media

The Media field enables editors to upload and attach one or more files images, documents, or video to a content entry.

Key Configuration Options

  • Default Tab
    • Field Name : Enter the display name for the field.
    • Internal Field Name: This field is auto-populated based on the Field Name.
    • Single Media: Restricts the field to exactly one file.
    • Multiple Media: Allows attaching multiple files per entry.
  • Validation Tab
    • Allowed File Types: Specify which file types are acceptable (e.g., Image, Files, Videos, or All).
    • Required Field: Ensure at least one file is uploaded before saving.
    • Read Only: Prevent editors from modifying the file.
  • More Tab
    • Help Text: Provide guidance on file dimensions, size limits, or usage recommendations using tooltips.

2. Color Picker

The Color Picker field offers a visual swatch and HEX‑code selector, perfect for theme or brand color inputs. This field can be used to capture color values in the following scenarios among many others:
  • Defining brand colors for page sections or components.
  • Allowing editors to customize background or text colors without CSS.
  • Capturing design tokens directly in content entries.
Key Configuration Options:
  • Default Tab
    • Field Name : Enter the display name for the field.
    • Internal Field Name: This field is auto-populated based on the Field Name.
