Assets are pieces of text, video, and photo content stored in Yext. They enable you to quickly access and apply frequently used content such as logos, slogans, templates for social posts, and other content.
Assets also allow you to manage content authoring by ensuring that your team is only using pre-approved or standardized content.
You can apply an asset by clicking the asset icon anywhere you see it while editing content in Yext:
