Article 3: Importing External Media Assets

We’re excited to introduce a new enhancement to the Storyline Media Library that allows producers to import media assets directly from Mimir, bringing a more seamless and efficient media workflow into Storyline.

With this update, producers can browse available Mimir assets, select the content they need, and import it directly into their story packages without leaving Storyline. This reduces the need for redundant uploads and minimizes workflow interruptions, helping accelerate story production.

This release also lays the foundation for future media and AI-driven capabilities, while maintaining flexibility so Storyline workflows are not dependent on Mimir.

What’s New

A new integration enables browsing of Mimir media assets directly within Storyline.
Producers can select and import assets using both single select and multi select actions.
Imported assets are added directly into the Storyline Media Library within a story package.
Reduces the need to switch between systems and re upload media files.

Caveats

Importing Mimir assets is currently limited to files up to 2GB in size.
