Perplexity

Team-wide video asset management in the editor

Commit your configuration to Git to let your whole team query Cincopa assets directly inside VS Code Copilot. Developers use the Cincopa MCP Server inside VS Code Copilot to run `list_cincopa_assets` and verify which media files are available for production. When debugging broken media links, VS Code Copilot calls `get_asset_metadata` to check if a specific Cincopa video is still active. This saves your engineering team hours of manual verification.

Deploy Cincopa galleries from VS Code Copilot

Stop wasting time switching to a browser to build layout structures. Your team uses this VS Code Copilot MCP Server to execute `create_new_gallery` using pre-approved Cincopa templates. VS Code Copilot calls `list_cincopa_galleries` to confirm the new Cincopa gallery is active and ready. This keeps your deployment steps completely inside your existing VS Code Copilot developer environment.

Securely handle asset uploads during development

When your local build process requires a new mock asset, VS Code Copilot calls `get_media_upload_url` to fetch a signed Cincopa upload link. Your asset goes straight to the Cincopa cloud without manual dragging. If you need to clean up temporary assets, VS Code Copilot runs `delete_media_asset` to remove them from your Cincopa hosting account. Your team maintains a clean Cincopa cloud environment automatically.
