Managing the Video Library

Overview

The Video Library is the first page you see after logging in to SundaySky Create. It serves as the central repository for all the videos in your account. Each video appears either in the root of the library (on this page) or inside a folder created for your account.

Every video is displayed with a thumbnail of its first scene, along with key details that help you quickly identify and manage your content.

While the Video Library is primarily used to locate the video you want to work on, it also provides quick access to common management tasks.

Sections in the Video Library

The Video Library includes the following three sections:

• Recent
  This section displays the ten most recently edited videos in your account. Beneath each thumbnail, you can see when the video was last edited and by whom. Use the left and right arrows to scroll through the full list.
   
• Folders
  This section displays all the folders created in your account for organizing videos. If you and your colleagues are using AI Copilot to create videos, a dedicated Copilot drafts folder is automatically created to store any video drafts that have not yet been edited. The Archive folder is also accessed from this section. The total number of folders in your account appears next to the section title (as shown in the example below: 4).
   
• Videos
  This section displays all videos located directly in the root of the Video Library (not inside folders). The total number of videos in this section appears next to the section title (as shown in the example below: 8).

Viewing and Organizing Videos

You can display the videos and folders in the Video Library in either grid view or list view. To switch between views, click the view selector located just above the Folders section. The videos in the Recent section are not affected by this setting and are always shown in grid view.

The view you select is user-specific, meaning your choice does not affect how other users in the same account see the Video Library.

Sorting Videos and Folders

You can sort the items on this page using the following options:

• Date last edited
• Date last approved
• Creation date
• Alphabetical order (by name)

The sorting option you select applies to both folders and videos.

In grid view, select a sorting option from the drop-down list located just above the Folders section. You can also use the arrow next to the selected option to switch between ascending and descending order.

In list view, click the column header you want to sort by — Name, Last Approved, Last Edited, or Creation Date. Each click toggles the sorting between ascending and descending order. In this view, folders are listed first, followed by videos.

Video Indicators

Beneath each video thumbnail, several indicators help you quickly understand the current state of the video.

These indicators can include:

• Re-approval indicator — a sync icon that appears when the video has been edited and needs to be re-approved.
   
• Video status — indicates the current status of the video. For an explanation of the various video statuses, see Understanding Video Statuses.
   
• Personalization indicator — appears if the video includes personalized content. If the required data source is missing, a warning symbol will appear.

In list view, these indicators are displayed in a slightly different location, but the information shown remains the same.

These indicators provide at-a-glance information so you can easily identify which videos may need attention.

Actions on the Thumbnail

Several quick actions are available directly on the video thumbnail, providing easy access to common video tasks.

These actions include:

• Preview — view the video without opening it in the Studio. 
• Edit — open the video in the Studio to make changes. 
• Duplicate — create a copy of the video.

In list view, Preview and Edit appear in slightly different locations, while duplicating a video is accessed through the Options menu.

Options Menu

Additional actions for each video are available from the three-dot Options menu.

• In grid view, the Options menu is located directly below the video thumbnail. 
• In list view, the Options menu is accessed at the end of the row.

The menu includes several actions such as renaming, sharing, duplicating, moving to a folder, archiving, and deleting. For instructions on how to perform these actions, see the corresponding Help Center articles:

• Renaming a Video
• Approving and Sharing a Video
• Duplicating a Video
• Moving a Video to a Folder
• Archiving a Video
• Deleting a Video

The only option explained in this article is Details, which opens a panel showing information about the video, including its metadata and key attributes.

Viewing Video Details

The Video details panel shows summary information about each video in the Video Library, including its metadata and key attributes. To open the panel, click Details from the video's Options menu.
