To download files from the Assets panel in Webflow, you’ll need to follow a few specific steps, since Webflow doesn’t provide a direct download option inside its Designer.
1. Open the Webflow Designer
- Go to your project in Webflow.
- Click Designer to open the workspace.
- On the left panel, click the Assets icon (looks like a photo).
2. Locate the File You Want to Download
- Scroll or search for the specific asset using the search bar at the top of the Assets panel.
- This can be an image, video, PDF, or any non-image file you previously uploaded.
3. Get the File’s Direct URL
- Right-click on the thumbnail of the asset.
- Select Copy URL. This copies the hosted Webflow file URL (e.g.,
https://assets.website-files.com/...
).
4. Download the File
- Open a new browser tab and paste the URL.
- Once the file loads (or triggers a download), you can either:
- Right-click and choose "Save as…", or
- It will automatically download, depending on file type and browser settings.
Summary
To download asset files from Webflow, copy the file’s URL from the Assets panel, open it in a browser, and download it from there. Webflow does not currently allow asset downloads directly within the Designer interface.
