In your Media Library, select multiple files using checkboxes. Choose a MediaSpark action from the "Bulk Actions" dropdown:

Two ways:

1. **Single file**: Edit the media file and select a folder from the "Media Folders" box
2. **Multiple files**: Select files in Media Library → Bulk Actions → "MediaSpark: Assign to Folder"

= Can I create new folders during bulk assign? =

Yes! When you use "MediaSpark: Assign to Folder", you can either:
* Select an existing folder from the dropdown
* Enter a new folder name in the "Or Create New Folder" field

= How do bulk tags work? =

Same as folders! Select files → Bulk Actions → "MediaSpark: Assign Tags" → Select existing or create new tags.
