what file types are allowed to be uploaded into the Design Studio.

Hi,

 

what file types are allowed to be uploaded into the Design Studio? just wanted to make sure we are uploading correct file type and what file type need not to be uploaded? And what needs to be the file limitation and max and min size do we need to follow?

Thanks for clearing this, also wanted to know do we have specific list of file types that are allowed in Marketo to upload? or it will work like any normal database to create CDN of any file type whatever file type we upload? 


You're welcome, @akshat_goyal! Yes, Marketo accepts all file types for upload, but as the documentation says, only the major image types (JPG, PNG, GIF, etc.) will work in our email editor. Other than that, you can consider it file storage and function like a Content Delivery Network (CDN). I'd only upload files pertaining to the use cases and requirements in Marketo rather than using it as a general-purpose CDN for your files (even those that aren't required to support the Markto use cases).

Check out this Adobe Experience League documentation: Add Images and Files to Marketo 

 

Marketo Design Studio can take any file type, but note that you can only use JPG, PNG, GIF, and other image types in your e-mail editing. This thread reports that image max files can be 50MB.

But according to this documentation https://experienceleague.adobe.com/docs/marketo/using/product-docs/demand-generation/images-and-file...

 

It says maximum file size will be 100 MB? so just to confirm it needs to be 100 MB or 50 MB?

Re: what file types are allowed to be uploaded into the Design Studio.

@akshat_goyal, It was 50 MB a few years ago, but Marketo now supports uploading files of sizes up to 100 MB in size. Also, you can upload your CSS, JS, txt, etc. files (used for storing iterators or counting for certain advanced use cases). In general, it is recommended to house your global CSS and/or JS files for LPs and emails in Design Studio and then reference them in your templates. Make sure you follow a proper and consistent naming convention and folder structure for your files (images and files) in the Design Studio, as it can get messy and time-consuming to search for things without a proper folder structure or naming convention (just like it is the case with your programs and assets in Marketing Activities).

Marketo usually complains when you try to upload *.svg
