Understand QBank under the hood

Intro: Discovering assets in QBank

QBank isn’t a static storage tool, it’s a dynamic platform built on logic and structure. In this video, we’ll break down the fundamentals of how QBank is organized behind the scenes. You’ll learn how its object-based model gives you full control over how content behaves, connects, and scales with your needs. Let’s get into it.

Object-based structure

QBank is built around the concept of objects. Think of objects as building blocks, each one represents a piece of content or structure within the platform. This includes media files, folders, and even moodboards.

Each object is defined by its type and the properties assigned to it. That’s what gives QBank its flexibility: you’re not working with generic files, you’re working with defined objects that carry meaning and behavior.

Object types

Object types decide what kinds of content can exist in your QBank.

There are two core types:

• media: files like images, video, audio, or documents

• folder: the containers that help structure your content

Media objects are central to how you organize and manage assets. When you create a media object, you can assign a property set, this is where custom fields like keywords, descriptions, or campaign data live.

What you define here directly impacts how your content is used, searched, and integrated.

Categories and object types

Categories define where content lives in your QBank. To use a media object in a category, you simply assign the object type to that category.

This connection tells QBank which properties to display for assets in that location. It also allows for more accurate filtering, governance, and automation.

It’s a small setting, but a powerful one.

Folders as objects

Folders in QBank aren’t just organizational tools. They can also act as objects, which means they can carry their own property sets.

This is especially useful for integrations and automation. For example, a campaign folder might carry metadata that external plugins or APIs respond to triggering actions based on tags, status, or dates.

You can even switch the object type of a folder directly from the edit view. It’s fast and flexible.

Wrapping up

When you understand how object types, properties, and categories work together, you unlock the ability to shape QBank into a system that fits your organization, not the other way around.

Structure isn’t just technical, it’s strategic.
Now that you’ve seen how QBank is built, you’re ready to make it your own.
