This content editor tool comes out-of-the-box for all Hygraph projects, and provides great flexibility when it comes to creating, editing, and manipulating content entries showcasing text and images.

button opens the Select Asset screen:
RTE - Select assets
Select an asset by clicking on the purple reference icon located at the beginning of each asset entry. This will automatically add the asset to your content.
If the asset you need has not yet been uploaded to your project, you can do so from here by click on the Upload
button. This process follows the standard asset upload flow.
Use this option to create inline and/or block embeds.
Inline embeds give Content Creators maximum flexibility to add references or relations directly within the text so they can move faster. This also clears up clutter around content creation, so they are able to add things like authors, citations, product attributes and more without having to add extra fields within the content entry.
Block embeds give Content Creators more flexibility with less clutter. Use block embeds to insert assets and other models inside the text as a block. This can be useful when adding images like logos, or referencing audiences to previous created material that support the new content item like blog posts, documents, announcements, etc.
RTE - Embeds - Block embed screen example
Only the content from the selected models in the Rich Text field configuration is available to be embedded. To be able to embed content from more models, enable them from the Rich Text field settings in the schema builder.
Whether you add an inline or a block embed, both screens show the same options: Use the dropdown to select the model you wish to embed content from, then click on Select model
.
The system will display the selection screen for the chosen model. To select an entry and add it to your content, simply click on the purple reference icon located at the beginning of each content entry.
