This article explains the purpose of sequential file numbering in the Media Hub.
Each file uploaded to the Media Hub is automatically assigned a sequential file number (initially with four leading zeros). It is used as unique file ID and remains independent of the file name, folder, or other data. If available, the organization abbreviation* is added as prefix. So, the result may look like this: tn_00007.
As a general rule: the higher the file number, the later the file was uploaded to the system.
Search by file number
The search field allows searching for a complete file number. Important: The prefix must be omitted here. A truncated (incomplete) entry is useful for finding multiple files with matching number segments.
Hide file IDs
To do so, activate the Hide internal file IDs checkbox in the Organization settings under Theme.
* The abbreviation can be defined in the Organization settings under General settings.
