This blog is intended to help HIVE CMS users set up their organization’s library content for use in their design processes. Before we begin, first ensure you have the latest version of HIVE and that your subscriptions are up-to-date.
First, open HIVE CMS and go to Add Content (A). In this window, click on Create next to the library tab (C).

From here, you will be directed to CTC’s online portal where you will need to sign in with your credentials. Once signed in, continue creating your library by adding the name and description.

Once your library is created, you can upload your content by simply opening HIVE and selecting Add Files or Add Folders (labeled D and E above). In both cases, select the content you want to add to your specific library and then select Update. This will update your HIVE library content.
