See how to talk to your AI agent using Canto.

Search my Canto library for all 'Q3 Marketing Pipeline' assets and list their metadata.

I searched the term 'Q3 Marketing Pipeline' and found 5 matching assets. The primary image (ID: M9X...) is tagged as 'Promo Banner' with a file size of 2MB. I can assign these matched assets to a new album if you'd like to organize them.

Create a new folder named 'Creative Ops 2026' and an album named 'Campaign Drafts' inside it.

I've successfully created the folder 'Creative Ops 2026' (ID: F4L...). I then provisioned the album 'Campaign Drafts' nested directly inside your new folder. It is ready to accept newly assigned assets.

Get the metadata for asset ID 'J5R...' and update its custom tag field to 'Approved'.

I pulled the metadata for asset 'J5R...', which originally contained a tag called 'In Review'. I submitted a metadata update patching the customFields to 'Approved'. Your changes are now live and visible in your Canto workspace.

Yes. You can instruct your AI to search for assets matching specific parameters or lacking required EXIF data, and automatically apply bulk updates to those `customFields` using the update metadata tool. Marketing teams use this to standardize their entire unstructured media library inside Canto in seconds.
