If your organization works in a LucidLink filespace, ZeroGen can connect to it. Everyone in the organization can then browse the filespace from ZeroGen, bring files into the Library, and send generated work back. LucidLink is available to organizations that set it up with ZeroGen. An Owner or Admin creates a key in LucidLink and gives it to ZeroGen, and there’s no setup inside the app. Deleting that key in LucidLink cuts ZeroGen off.

​
Browse the filespace

In the Library sidebar, under External sources, choose LucidLink. The same source appears in Generate’s reference picker.
  • Switch between column view and list view, and sort by name, kind, size or date created.
  • Select a file to see its size, dates and location.
  • Choose refresh to see the folder’s latest contents.

​
Import files

  1. Open the Library folder you want the files in, then open LucidLink.
  2. Select files and choose Import. The destination folder shows beside the button. Select it to choose another folder, or Unfiled.
To import a whole folder with its subfolders, select the folder. If the Library already has a folder with that name, choose Merge or Keep both. One import can hold up to 1,000 files in 100 folders.
  • Each file can be up to 200 MB.
  • Images, video and audio in common formats can be imported. Other files show as Preview only, and a folder import lists what it skipped.
  • A file your project already has isn’t copied again. It’s added to the destination folder instead.
  • If you reload or close the tab during an import, ZeroGen asks first, and Resume import carries on.
To use a LucidLink file as a reference in Generate, choose it in the reference picker. ZeroGen imports it into the Library first.

​
Export generated work

You can send generated assets to LucidLink. Uploads and imported files can’t be exported.
  1. Select generated assets in the Library.
  2. Choose Actions, then Export N items, and pick a folder in the filespace.
Exported files keep their Library names, and ZeroGen never overwrites a file that’s already there. Each file can be up to 200 MB. If the project’s Metadata files setting is on, a JSON file with each asset’s details goes beside it. See Projects.

​
Linked folders

Owners and Admins can link a Library folder to a folder in the filespace:
  1. Open the Library folder.
  2. Choose Actions › Set up linked folder, and pick a folder in the filespace.
Linking doesn’t export anything by itself. Inside a linked folder, a LucidLink button shows the destination’s name. Choose it, then Export to linked folder to send the folder’s generated assets there. With assets selected, the export starts in the linked folder instead. From the same button, Owners and Admins can choose Change linked folder… or Unlink folder. Unlinking leaves files already in LucidLink as they are. Project settings lists every linked folder in the project. Only Owners and Admins can delete a Library folder that’s linked to LucidLink.

​
Pin folders

Pin a filespace folder you use often. Pin for me adds it to your own sidebar. Owners and Admins can choose Pin for everyone to add it for the whole project. Pins appear under External sources in the Library and in the reference picker.
