Cosmo Change Asset Action
The Cosmo Change Asset Action node updates the storage path of an existing asset in Cosmo.
It is typically used when media files are physically moved on storage (for example during archive or housekeeper workflows). The node informs Cosmo about the new file location and updates the asset reference across all projects that use this media.
If synchronization is enabled, the updated media location will automatically be reflected in Premiere Pro or After Effects after the project is opened.
Input Parameters
Old Path Previous file path of the asset, including filename and extension.
New Path New storage location of the asset, including filename and extension.
Synchronization Options
Auto Sync If enabled, the updated file location is synchronized automatically when the project is opened. If disabled, the project will show a pending synchronization state in the panel and must be synced manually.
Skip Metadata Sync If enabled, metadata synchronization in the panel is skipped.
Skip Markers Sync If enabled, marker synchronization in the panel is skipped.
When Auto Sync is disabled, the panel displays an orange counter indicating how many assets still require synchronization or updating.
Behavior
Updates the asset path globally in Cosmo
Affects all projects referencing the asset
Does not move the file on storage — it only updates the database reference
Can be used in archive, migration, or storage relocation workflows
Supports asynchronous execution
Typical Use Case
A housekeeper or archive workflow moves a media file to long-term storage.
The file path changes on disk.
This node updates the asset path inside Cosmo.
When editors open the project, the media relinks automatically after synchronization.
Use Cosmo Change Asset Action when all projects must see the new file location. Use Cosmo Change Project Asset Action when only one project should see the new location.
