Managing assets
Clicking the three dots at the top of an asset opens the asset management tab.
There are five options inside:

-
Move to: Moves the selected asset to the desired folder inside the asset manager.

Asset usage information
At the bottom of the Assets panel, there is a collapsible "Asset usage" section that displays resource utilization:
- Size max: "Number" MB: The maximum total file size allowed for all assets
- The progress bar and percentage show how much of this allowance you're currently using
- Count max: "Number": The maximum number of individual assets allowed
- The percentage indicates how many of your available asset slots are being used
