Optimizely CMS offers out the box integration with Optimizely DAM allowing users to easily select images from the DAM for use in Content Areas and Image properties.

Installation

Installation is via a Nuget package: https://nuget.optimizely.com/package/?id=TinymceDamPicker with instructions on the source code here: https://github.com/davidknipe/TinymceDamPicker

Outcome

After installing a new button will appear that allows editors to pick images from the Optimizely DAM from TinyMCE in Optimizely 12.
