Additional files are supplementary files that can be included with assets. Examples include a release form or a price list. These files provide more detail or supporting information about an existing asset.
By default, all users can view Additional Files; however, you can adjust permissions for certain users to download additional files.

If you would like to update an asset's original file without having to tag it from scratch, you might want to upload your updated file as a new version instead.
If you want to add a new download option for users with specific customizations, such as crop or format, you might want to upload your modified file as a manual derivative instead.
You may want to use the related assets functionality to identify assets that have been uploaded to the Asset Bank that have something in common.
Manual derivatives cannot be exposed via API and will not be available in any integration.
