Overview

The Media Storage tab is your central hub for storing, organizing, and reusing images across The Pediatric Experience platform. With built-in access to free stock libraries, drag-and-drop uploads, and Google Drive sync, you can streamline your workflow and maintain a consistent library of logos, graphics, and brand assets without repeatedly uploading them.

Easy Navigation: Access directly from the left sidebar.
Flexible Views: Toggle between grid view (thumbnail previews) and list view (detailed info).
Drag & Drop Uploads: Upload multiple files in one motion.
Stock Providers: Pull images directly from Unsplash and Pixabay.
Advanced Sorting: Organize by file size, name, or modified date.
Quick Actions: Rename, move, delete, or copy links via right-click menus.
Google Drive Sync: Two-way sync for uploads and folders.
