Syncing missing assets with library automatically?

Hi

I've got a AE project with missing assets. Same assets are available in adobe library that I'm sharing with my colleagues so I need to sync those missing assets not with files physically on HDD but with library.

So far, I'm able to search for each asset in library and drag it to the project. It works, but must be done for every single asset.\

Is there any way to do that for all missing assets in one step? Just to tell AE that it should search for missing assets in library by default or something like that?

thanks

Correct answer Mylenium

The library is tied to the context of the user account. Even if an asset is globally available, it will not link to any of its usages when it's not on the same user account. So no, can't do. Simply download the assets locally and bundle them up.

Mylenium​ I still don't get it.

1/ How should I save my AE compositions locally when in team project? "Save/Save as" is grayed out.

2/ How's possible that it works in the video presentation on youtube for the guys from Adobe?
