Questions about this workflow
What kind of URL does this require?
It requires a publicly accessible URL for an asset such as an image or video.
Is the asset available immediately?
The import is asynchronous. The action starts a job; the asset is usable after the job completes successfully.
Can the imported asset be used in a design later?
