Saving files to CC Libraries created in AI

Question

I have created several graphics that I created in AI and now would like to save them as png files to the CC Libraries for others to access. How do I get those file formats to the Libraries. You can not drag and drop files into the Libraries. I have saved them to my Creative Cloud Files on my desktop but when it syncs that goes to Files and not Libraries. Can that be redirected or is there an easy way to move assets from CC Files to CC Libraries? Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Using a MacPro running OS Sierra and using Adobe Illustrator CC 2017.

Although the Adobe CC Library page says you can save directly to your libraries, it wasn't as intuitive as "Save As".

My example is Adobe Illustrator because that's what I just figured out. (Win 10 PC - I wanted to put a graphic in Library that I will use across different programs (InDesign, Photoshop, etc. but I want to keep the flexibility of being able to edit in AI)

1. Select the graphic that you want to save in the CC Library (I have an open AI file; I selected the graphic that I have grouped)

2. Open the CC Library that you want to save your asset to.

3. At the bottom of the CC Library window there is a " + " sign, click on it. (I had the choice of adding the graphic or adding the color, I chose the graphic).

4. The graphic should now be in your library. (I right-clicked the graphic and renamed it to match the original file name.)

I hope this helps.

You cannot move files from CC folders to CC libraries unfortunately.But if the purpose is to share the files with others, you can do that also with files and folders using the Collaborate option.
