Make adjusting images to fit your content requirements easier. With image customization, content creators can create a variation of the original image within a few clicks. No need to contact a graphic expert each time they need to make a slight change.

Meet content limitations and avoid duplicate assets

Image customization is a tool for creating variations of original images without duplicating them. It serves both as a creative tool and as a solution for ensuring images conform to various element limitations without you having to create a separate cropped and resized version for each case. Developers can work with customized images via the Management API.
For an image to be customizable, it must meet the following criteria:
  • Format must be JPG, PNG, GIF, or WebP.
  • Resolution must be 12,000 × 12,000 px or less.
  • File size must be less than 50 MB.
Furthermore, the image needs to be in an asset element, not directly in a rich text element.
This feature isn’t available for some legacy plan subscriptions. Contact us to find out your options.

Customize an image

  1. Navigate to the asset element that holds the image you want to adjust. 
  2. Click in the image’s top-right corner.
  3. Customize the image dimensions to fit your needs.
    • If there are any limitations set for the element, customized dimensions are prefilled to fulfill them.
  4. Scale the image as needed by moving the slider.
    • You can’t scale the image beyond its original size (in other words, upscale it).
  5. On the left, move the image selection to get the desired part of the image.
  6. (Optional) Click Preview to see what your customized image looks like.
  7. Click Save.
Your customized image is now used in the asset element of the specific content item. The original image is not affected by this change.
To display customized images on your website or an app, your developers need to add support for asset renditions.

Remove image customization

To remove an image customization, click and then Delete customized image in the lower-left corner. The customized image will be deleted and replaced by the original image. No actual images are deleted, just the customization set in the particular element.
