This chapter covers the basics of working with Cumulus URL AssetStore Module. It describes how to catalog assets from FTP or HTTP servers and how to work with them in Cumulus. Although the records of URL-cataloged assets behave just like any record which has been cataloged through the supported file systems – working with the assets themselves from within Cumulus is slightly different.

This chapter also describes how to copy or move cataloged assets to FTP servers and how to set up the Central Asset Location for a catalog on an FTP server.
