And the “Link Asset To” option to mezzanine or original file.

       

3.   If the project is imported I a location other than from the location from where the new asset (this case “Regera at Geneva 2016”) was added to the project during the first import, a pop up like this will be shown and we need to click on the cancel button, so that eMAM panel will automatically re link the asset to the eMAM storage.
