Asset center

​

What is the asset center

The asset center centrally manages the images and videos that Model Studio models generate for you. In the asset center, you can:

• Quickly find assets by asset type, generation model, generation time, or prompt.
• Favorite frequently used assets and locate them quickly with the Favorites only view.
• Move assets that you no longer need to the recycle bin, where they are retained for 30 days by default.
• Configure OSS transfer rules to automatically transfer platform-stored assets to your own Alibaba Cloud OSS.

The asset center currently supports image and video assets. Audio assets are not supported. The asset center supports only certain models, and only assets generated by these models are collected in the asset center. The asset center currently supports the following models: qwen-image-2.0-pro-2026-06-22, qwen-image-2.0-pro-2026-04-22, z-image, wan2.7-image-pro, wan2.7-image, wan2.7-videoedit, wan2.7-r2v, wan2.7-i2v, and wan2.7-t2v. Before first use, log on to the Alibaba Cloud Model Studio console, choose Workbench > Asset Center in the left navigation pane, and click Activate Now. After activation, the system automatically collects the images and videos generated by Model Studio models.

​

Configure OSS transfer

To avoid exceeding the platform storage limit, you can automatically transfer assets to your own Alibaba Cloud OSS bucket. After the transfer, you can choose whether to release the copy in platform storage. In the upper-right corner of the asset center page, click Bind OSS and complete the configuration as follows:

1. Authorize the SLR: Authorize the service-linked role AliyunServiceRoleForBailianAssetForward with one click. No AccessKey is required. If the current account is already authorized, this step completes automatically.
2. Bucket and path: Select the target region, OSS bucket, and directory, and confirm the path template. If the target bucket appears unavailable in the drop-down list, click Add Tag next to the bucket to add a tag with the key bailian-connector-access and the value ReadAndWrite. The bucket becomes selectable after the tag is added. The default path template is {workspace}/{yyyy}/{mm}/{model}/{id}.{ext}, where {workspace} is the workspace identifier.
3. Transfer scope: Choose to transfer all assets or only assets generated more than N days ago, decide whether to release platform storage after the transfer completes, and then finish the binding.

After binding succeeds, the button in the upper-right corner of the page changes to OSS Transfer Configuration. Click it to view the current binding status, bucket information, transfer scope, and transfer logs, and to edit the configuration or unbind. The system automatically retries failed transfer tasks. You can also check the failure cause in the transfer logs.

View the asset list

After you enter the asset center, the top of the page shows asset statistics for the current workspace, including the total number of assets, the number of images, the number of videos, and the used platform storage capacity. You can click Go to Model Experience to generate images or videos in the model experience center, and the generated assets are automatically collected in the asset center. You can filter assets in the following ways:

• Type: All types, images, or videos.
• Model: The model used to generate the asset.
• Date range: Filter by generation time range.
• Search prompts: Search by prompt or file name keywords.

​

Manage assets

• Favorite assets: Hover over an asset card and click the star icon in the upper-right corner to favorite or unfavorite it. Select Favorites only in the upper-right area of the page to show only favorited assets.
• Delete assets: Hover over an asset card, select the checkbox, and click the delete button. After selecting multiple assets, you can click Delete in the batch operation bar to delete them in a batch. Deleted assets go to the recycle bin instead of being permanently deleted immediately. Click the Recycle Bin button in the upper-right area of the page to view deleted assets. Assets in the recycle bin are retained for 30 days by default. In the recycle bin, you can select one or more assets and perform Permanently Delete.
• View asset details: Click any asset card to open the asset details dialog, which shows complete information about the asset, including the prompt, generation parameters, model name, and generation time.

​

Use assets in API calls

Each asset has a unique asset ID (asset_id) that you can view in the asset details. Click any asset card and find the Asset ID field on the right side of the dialog. When you call image or video generation model APIs, you can reference an existing image or video in the asset center by asset_id, instead of passing a URL or Base64-encoded data:

• Image generation models: Image input parameters (such as reference images and control images) support the asset_id field. Use it as an alternative to image_url or image_base64.
• Video generation models: Video and image input parameters (such as the first frame image or reference video) support the asset_id field. Use it as an alternative to a URL or Base64-encoded data.

​

Platform storage and billing

The top of the asset center page shows the platform storage usage of the current workspace in the format used capacity / free quota, for example, 0.00 / 5 GB. Click the information icon next to Platform Storage to view capacity details. The asset center is currently in the invite-only beta phase. Platform storage is available for free. After commercial launch, usage will be billed on a pay-as-you-go basis.

​

FAQ

Do assets change after I switch workspaces? Yes. The asset center shows only the generated assets of the current workspace. However, the OSS transfer configuration is global and does not change when you switch workspaces. How long are assets kept in the recycle bin? Assets in the recycle bin are retained for 30 days by default and are automatically cleaned up when the period expires. You can also permanently delete them manually in the recycle bin. Why do some generated assets not appear in the asset center? The asset center collects only images and videos that are generated by Model Studio models and saved to platform storage. Assets generated through API calls may not appear in the asset center if they are not saved to platform storage.
