How to Use Folders in MarketScale

Use MarketScale folders to organize, tag, search, and batch-send media fast. Learn how to access folders, submit edit requests from a folder, browse and filter, and merge or rename folders.

Feeling buried in assets? Folders make your channel instantly searchable. Tag anything, find it fast, and keep projects moving without digging through drives or Slack threads.


Why Folders Matter

Folders aren't old-school storage, they're flexible tags you can drop on any file:

  • Build courses fast: Pull clips, interviews, and slides into one simple workspace.

  • Run shows easily: Tag every episode into one folder for quick repurposing.

  • Create an unlimited library: Events, B-roll, product shots, all organized and easy to surface.

  • Find files instantly: Search or filter by name or date. No clutter, no wasted time.

MarketScale replaces scattered tools with one scalable, self-serve hub.


Accessing Individual Folders

Once your media is filed in MarketScale, you can open a folder by clicking the folder tab on the media card.

This brings up every piece of media in your Channel that's tagged to the folder. Click any item to preview it and access its settings in Media Studio.


Submitting an Edit Request from Within a Folder

Within an individual folder, you can combine multiple uploads into a single edit request, which then appears on your Home Feed like a typical upload.

Pro tip: When you order edits from a folder, MarketScale automatically creates copies of the content. The originals stay in the folder untouched, and the copies get customized with your edit notes, so you can reuse assets from a folder again and again.

Tick the checkboxes next to the videos you want, or choose "Select All Media" to grab every upload in the folder. For a smoother workflow, organize and title videos clearly before you submit, it saves time and makes collaboration easier.

Click Request edit from folder to open the standard edit request form. From there you can pick a previously created style, set orientation, choose a brand book, and add extra notes or supporting footage.


Browsing All Channel Folders

To browse every folder in your Channel, hover over the top right of the portal and click the folder icon to the left of your profile icon.

In the Folders view, you'll see every folder created by users in your Channel. If it feels like a lot, don't worry, there are several ways to filter.

The search bar lets you look up a specific folder.

You can also filter alphabetically, by date created, or by last changed. Hover the dropdown arrow to reveal more options.


Organizing Your Folders

Selecting a folder gives you options to share, rename, or delete it. These controls appear in two places: on the folder icon itself and in the upper right of the Channel Folders section.

Star folders to pin them to your Favorites section.

Select two or more folders to merge or delete them in bulk.


Submitting an Edit Request Across Folders

You can also send entire folders into MarketScale for editing. Select one or more folders, then choose Request edit from folders.

A panel opens where you can pick a saved style, set orientation, choose a brand book, and add supporting footage. This is especially useful for pulling in uploads from multiple contributors for a single video.


Folders give you a home for both short- and long-term media, so the right asset is always a search away. For more on why folders matter, read this article.
