Important: To select a different upload destination after you've switched to an external account, click on the provider dropdown, then click Manage Accounts.
Multi-asset Uploads
With multi-asset uploading, you can queue multiple assets to be uploaded from your device or any of the cloud-based services listed above. To upload multiple assets:
