Adding a release via ingestion

New releases(albums) can be added via a csv ingestion, but a release can also be made manually.

Creating a release manually

• Log into the admin

• Navigate to Catalog > Releases

• Click on the plus (+) icon on the right hand side of the page to create a new release

• Fill in the required fields for the album

  

• If you would like to not have the release shown on the front end yet, leave the ‘published’ checkbox unchecked and it will remain hidden from users (to work on in the admin)

• The group ‘main catalogue’ is required for all users to see the release (a default group setting), but can be amended if you want to have custom user access to certain releases

• Save the release

Add track to release

Once the release is saved and available to view in the ‘releases’ section of the admin, you can add tracks to a release via the track itself

• Log into the admin

• Navigate to Catalog > Tracks

• Search for the track name in question

• Click on the pencil edit icon

• Under ‘parent release’ add/edit the name of the album you would like to add the track to

  

  Typing ‘radio’ has given the autocomplete results of these two releases which can be selected to have this track attached to

• Click save

The track will now appear on the requested album/release.
