Create a New Album

Linarc gives you the tools to create and manage organized media albums tailored to different categories and project requirements throughout the entire lifecycle. With Linarc, you can: 

• Create new albums with clear, customizable labels, and seamlessly add photos and videos from any group at any stage of the project. 
• Easily remove or update media items to ensure your albums stay relevant and accurate. 
• Leverage albums for multiple purposes, such as generating time-lapse videos for project close-out, showcasing progress to stakeholders, or maintaining visual records for compliance and reporting.

You can create an album collection in two ways:

• Create an empty album and populate it with items as needed.
• Select a set of items first, then group them into a new album.

Create a New Empty Album

• Ensure that you are in the 'Album' screen of the 'Feeds' module. If not:
  • Open the project management console
  • Click the app launcher icon in the top-right and select 'Field'
  • Click 'Feeds' on the top and select 'Albums' on the left

• Click '+Create' button on the top right

• Enter a label for the album and click 'Create Album.'

A new album is created and shown as a tile.

• Click the '+' symbol to start adding items to it. See Add Images or Videos to Albums for more guidance on this process.

Create a New Album from Selected Photos and Videos 

You can directly select items from any Feeds screen and group them into a new album. Additional items can be added to the same album at any time.

  • Open the project management console
  • Click the app launcher icon in the top-right and select 'Field'
  • Click 'Feeds' on the top
  • Open any of 'All,' 'Videos,' 'Trades,' and 'Timeline' from which you want to create an album

• Select the photos you want to group as the new album
• Click 'Add to Album' at the top-right
