Images Overview
The Nodinite Image Library helps teams manage visual assets once and reuse them everywhere in the Repository Model.
With Images, you can:
- ✅ Upload once and reuse in many Articles and Custom Metadata fields
- ✅ Search images by name, title, description, alt text, and Tags
- ✅ Keep documentation consistent across teams
- ✅ Improve accessibility with stored alt text
Animated walkthrough: upload an image once, find it again, and see its slug, alt text, Tag, and size.
- Open Repository > Images and click Upload New Image.
- Pick the file. The dialog shows its size and type; PNG, JPEG, GIF, WebP, and SVG up to 10 MB are accepted.
- Give it a Title, an Alt Text for screen readers, a Description, and a Tag, here Contoso: Sales. Leave Slug empty to generate it from the title.
- Click Upload.
- Type order-to-cash in the search box to find it again.
- Open its Action menu and choose View: the image with its slug, alt text, Tag, and size.
What Is the Image Library?
The Image Library is a central place for image assets used in Nodinite Repository content. You can reference images in Articles and in Custom Metadata scenarios where visual context improves understanding.
This avoids duplicate uploads and keeps visual assets easier to govern.
Why This Matters for Non-Admins
Non-admin users often rely on screenshots and visuals to understand process and context. The Image Library makes those visuals easier to find and reuse.
| Need | What Images provides |
|---|---|
| Reusable screenshots | Centralized image storage |
| Better content quality | Metadata, search, and tags |
| Better accessibility | Alt text attached to each image |
Find an image
Open Repository > Images. The search box searches name, title, description, and alt text. Use Filter on Tag to narrow the cards, and tick Include archived to also see archived images. Switch between Grid, Compact, and List with the View buttons at the top.
Each card shows the thumbnail, title, name, Tags, size, and type; an archived image is marked Archived.
To see where an image is used, choose Show in Mapify from its Action menu; see Mapify. Archiving, restoring, and permanently deleting images is described in Manage images.
Access and Configuration
Use Repository access to browse and reuse images. Administrators can guide usage through repository governance, roles, and content standards.
