Create managed file attachments

Use the Assets tool to create an attachment to act as a container for URLs. To associate a managed file with a catalog entry, category or marketing content, create an attachment first. You can have different versions of a managed file for each supported language. You can also create attachments using external content or by entering a URL directly.
