How do I use the cross-gallery search?

Written by Lauren

Begin the Search

From your Main Dashboard click the search bar and begin typing to open the cross-gallery search. You can also open the cross-gallery search when creating new content.

Pro Tip: AI Search tools must be enabled in your Settings > Preferences in order to use the cross-gallery search. Otherwise, you can continue using the standard gallery search. Learn more here!

Simply search by describing the photos you have in mind. Narrow your results by date, color, orientation, and more to find exactly what you need.

Checkmark the media you want to select (you can also shift+click to select multiple media at once). From there, you can:

  • View only the selected media.

  • Share the media to your phone via QR code.

  • Download the high resolution or web resolution version of the photos.

  • Save the media to a new Collection or one of your existing ones (My Collections only).

  • Create a Reel, Slideshow, or Blog from the selected media.

View

Click to View the selected media.

When you view the selected media, you can uncheck to remove it. If needed, click undo to revert your changes. You can also rearrange the media from here by simply dragging and dropping.

Then continue to Share, Download, Save, or Create, or click the < arrow to go back to your search results.

Share

Click to Share the selected media.

When you share the selected media, scan the QR code using your mobile device’s camera, and click to follow the link to share and post it directly from your phone.

From your phone, tap the share button on each image to share only that media, or tap to share the entire selection.

From there, you can save the media to your device, share it, or post it to social media.

Download

Click to Download the selected media.

To download the high resolution click the SearchResults.zip folder, or if you prefer Web-Size photos, click Download.

Save

Click to Save the selected media.

Click + New collection or add it to your existing Collections (My Collections only. In-gallery Collections do not appear here).

If creating a new Collection, name it and click Save.

Then the Collection will be added to your Content Studio. Click to View collection or click the < arrow to return to your Main Dashboard.

Create

Click to Create from the gallery media and choose what content you want to create:

  • Reel

  • Slideshow

  • Blog

If creating a Slideshow or Blog, the selected media will also need to be saved to a Collection (My Collections only; it will not save as an in-gallery Collection). Click the dropdown to either select one of your existing Collections to add the media to (this will not add the Collection’s existing media to whatever content you’re creating), or create a new Collection.

Then name your new Collection if needed, and click Create (Create a slideshow, or Create a blog).

How do I use the standard gallery search?

If you want to continue using the standard gallery search, you can either:

Search for galleries only

To use the standard gallery search and only search for galleries, select Galleries in the search bar and either click the filter icon to refine your search, or begin typing. For example, you can select a specific vendor from the filter, or simply type their name in the search.

The search results will appear, where you can continue refining your search by combining filters, or using the search bar again to change your search. When you’ve found the gallery you’re looking for, hover over it. From there you can:

  • Click the pencil icon or gallery image to be taken to the gallery’s settings.

  • Click the eye icon to preview the gallery.

  • Click the trashcan icon to delete the gallery.
