Sitecore Media Import from file system/Export to file system

We can do the bulk import and export using Serialization.But when you are serializing the tree output would be filename.item.We can’t see the actual media (image,doc or zip.)

If you want to resize or compress the image after uploading the images, then this post is for you.

How to do it ?

  1. Download and install the Sitecore Media Export Import from Sitecore Media Import-Export-V1.0.zip
  2. Select the media folder and click export

Export Media

 

3.  After exporting the media , then check the export folder path

export folder path
