How to Manage and Search Files in Shopify Studio Theme

Studio's photography-first layout suits stores selling limited editions or artist-made pieces, where a bio or certificate of authenticity often needs to travel with the product.

Steps

In your Shopify admin, go to Settings > Files (some admin versions show this as Content > Files).
Click Upload files and add your documents — Shopify accepts any file type except HTML, up to 20 MB each. Video files can go up to 1 GB, capped at 10 minutes, in MOV, MP4, or WEBM.
Once uploaded, click a file to copy its public URL.
Paste that URL into a product description, a page, or a navigation menu link — this is the only way customers reach it.
Repeat per file. There's no bulk-link tool, so each one gets placed manually.

Letting shoppers browse the archive

Shopify's Files section is admin-only — there's no customer-facing search or browse view. If every edition or artist has their own document, that adds up fast, and a single linked-file-per-page approach stops working. An app like Download Page & File Search MP adds a searchable widget so shoppers can find the right document on their own.
