Set Up the Asset Service
The process of setting up assets and files in the Reusable Asset Service has a number of simple stages, typically:
- Identify the Registry
- Create the Storages, including copying an existing Storage as a template for a new one
- Set password protection on each Storage
- Register the Asset Packages and Storage Files, and update them as necessary
Prerequisites
As a Reusable Asset Service is stored in a Pro Cloud Server repository, there must be a Pro Cloud Server (PCS) operating and a repository configured and enabled on this PCS.

Identify the Repository
A Reusable Asset Registry is contained in a PCS based repository that is typically configured by a System Administrator. If you have access to an existing PCS repository then the connection details for that can used for creating Reusable Asset Storage. Otherwise, if a new repository needs to be created by a System Administrator, they will provide the repository connection details for you to use.

If a new repository is required, then the System Administrator creates a PCS based Repository to act as the Reusable Asset Registry and then provides you with the connection details like server and model name. If a PCS repository already exists and you have access to it, then proceed to step 2. |
