Bulk relinking of images to CC library

Community Beginner ,

We have 5 product catalogs with images that we want to centralize to one location so that the wrong versions are never grabbed when the catalogs are updated. To accomplish this, we are uploading all the images (about 5,000 of them) to CC libraries. 

However, now I need to relink all the images in my InDesign files to the CC library instead of to the local drive where the images used to be stored. 

Is there a way to do this in bulk instead of relinking every image one by one?

Hi @wcalc , currently there is no object in the scripting API for the CC Libraries, so I doubt there is a way to script the relinking.

 

A better option might be to use the User>Creative Cloud Files folder for the central image folder. In that case the images will automatically sync to your cloud account, and other users can be invited to share (sync) to the folder and everyone will have local access to the same image files.
