Creating Your First Asset

The next step is to create an asset and store that information on the Kitsu Server. If you are using the Asset Pipeline Add-On, see the Asset Pipeline Guide.

1. If you haven't already, ensure your project settings are set up: Blender Kitsu Add-On Preferences.
2. Follow the Kitsu New Asset Guide to create your asset on the Kitsu Server.
3. Navigate to Project > New Asset in the header or File > New > Asset File to create a new asset file.

4. Select an Asset Type and Asset in the Operator Pop-Up. Your asset file will open.

5. Under the Kitsu > Context > Set Asset sub-panel:
   • Collection is set to the asset's parent collection.
   • Run the Set Kitsu Asset operator to send the current filepath and selected collection to the Kitsu Server.

• You should now see the filepath and collection under the asset's metadata on Kitsu.

6. Your new Asset file will be saved to your_project_name/svn/pro/assets/{asset_type}/{asset_name}/{asset_name}.blend.
