Manage an asset bundle cover image

Cover images provide visual representations of asset bundles. Upload a custom cover image, or select one of the assets in the bundle as the cover image. An asset must display an asset preview to be used as a cover image for a bundle. To learn more about asset previews, see Manage asset previews.

If a cover image is not set, P4 DAM shows a default icon for the asset bundle.

Project members can change the cover image for the asset bundle.
