# How do I set up an Upload campaign?

## The following guide will walk you through how to set up your Upload Campaign.

Upload campaigns are an excellent way to boost brand engagement and awareness through user-generated content (UGC) contests. Encourage fans to submit authentic photos and videos that reflect your brand, and incentivize their participation. Upload campaigns are great for collecting first-party content you can leverage for your own marketing.

### When to use an Upload campaign

You might want to consider using an Upload campaign to:

- Collect user-generated content (UGC), such as photos, videos, and comments from your audience
- Leverage first-party content for your marketing initiatives, similar to our partners at [ScoreMore and Dreamville](https://www.linkedin.com/posts/grantdwaring_i-would-like-to-share-a-festival-project-activity-7004534838716227585-_ruT/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=member_desktop&rcm=ACoAAALupXMBpyEwL-GQx0CUX6IfMPc8o9-IEQY) who used fan-submitted content for their marketing [video](https://www.linkedin.com/posts/grantdwaring_i-would-like-to-share-a-festival-project-ugcPost-7004534252704849920-MbsZ/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=member_desktop&rcm=ACoAAALupXMBpyEwL-GQx0CUX6IfMPc8o9-IEQY)

### Configuration

Under the Configuration tab, you will be able to manage your **Content Options,** including:

#### Display Posts

- You can choose to "Show post media only" - toggling this will hide text-only posts.
- You can set how many posts you wish to display per page

#### Content Upload/Download

- You can toggle "Allow fans to upload entries" to let fans submit photos and videos up to 300MB per video
- The allowed upload types let you choose whether to accept text-only entries, photo uploads, video uploads, or all of the above
- You can require fans to add a title to their submission
- By enabling "Uploads require approval" you can review and approve entries before they are displayed
- You can allow fans to submit multiple uploads per entry
- With the "Show uploader's name" setting you can choose whether to display the fan's name
- You can manage file downloads using "Allow fans to download entries"

#### Fan Voting

In this section, you can enable voting on fan uploads. You also have the option to set daily vote limits, define the maximum number of times a fan can vote per day and establish a total vote limit. Additionally, you can choose whether to hide vote counts from users.

### Entries

The Entries tab, found in the left-hand menu, allows you to approve or reject fan-uploaded content. You can also manually upload entries by clicking "New Entry," then providing an image, title, and optionally a description and automatic tag.

You can also search by fan name, title, or description using the "Search" function, and filter by type of posts.

![Upload Campaign &gt; Entries Tab](https://resources.tradablebits.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Upload%20Campaign%20%3E%20Entries%20Tab.png?width=670&height=448&name=Upload%20Campaign%20%3E%20Entries%20Tab.png)

Additionally, you have the option to export all images, or only the approved images as a .tar file.

### How to Connect your Upload Campaign to a UGC Stream

For details on the differences between an Upload Campaign, UGC Contest, and UGC Stream, see**[this guide](https://resources.tradablebits.com/support/difference-between-an-upload-ugc-contest-and-stream?hsLang=en)**.

You can also easily add the submissions from your Upload campaign to a UGC stream of your choosing. To connect your Upload campaign to a UGC stream, navigate to the **Tradable Bits Homepage,** hover over **UGC** in the **Top Navigation Bar,** and select your desired UGC stream. 

![ugc stream-1](https://resources.tradablebits.com/hs-fs/hubfs/ugc%20stream-1.png?width=430&height=270&name=ugc%20stream-1.png)

To upload campaign content to a stream, from the **UGC Display** left menu, go to **Content \> Posts**, then click **Add Post** and select **Import From Campaign**.

![UGC &gt; Posts &gt; Add Content](https://resources.tradablebits.com/hs-fs/hubfs/UGC%20%3E%20Posts%20%3E%20Add%20Content.png?width=670&height=279&name=UGC%20%3E%20Posts%20%3E%20Add%20Content.png)

From the **Select Contest** dropdown menu, choose the campaign you want to import from.

Click **Select All Entries** to import everything at once, or choose specific posts to display. To view more images, scroll down and click **Load More** to load additional content. You can repeat this process as needed to bring in more entries from your campaign.
