Use a file resource element

We use a file resource element to store a file that can later be referenced on a web page. To create a file resource element, we can either add a file resource element to an authoring template, site area or content item, or create a file resource component.

• Create a file resource component
  We create a file resource component when to reuse a file resource in multiple places in the website.

• Add a file resource element to an item
  We add a file resource element to a site area or content item when we want the file resource to be used for a specific site area or content item.

• Add a file resource element to a template
  We add a file resource element to an authoring template when we want the file resource to be used by a set of items using the same authoring template.

• Referencing a file resource
  A file resource can be referenced within presentation templates and other element designs using either a component or element tag.
