Combine asset upload and metadata import in AEM Assets

Request for Feature Enhancement (RFE) Summary: Combined asset upload and meta data import with spreadsheet (e.g. csv) in one step. Use-case: Mass uploading assets will be faster and easier when meta data can be added in one step. Current/Experienced Behavior: To mass upload assets and apply meta data, you need to upload the assets first, then click "Create" again to add meta data with the help of a spradsheet. Improved/Expected Behavior: Combined mass upload dialog where you can upload the meta data spreadsheet AND the files in one step, e.g. drag/drop the meta data spreadsheet, then the files. When the assets are in the asset bank, all meta data is already there, no additional steps needed. Environment Details (AEM version/service pack, any other specifics if applicable): AEM Assets Customer-name/Organization name: HBK Screenshot (if applicable): Code package (if applicable):

@manvisharma Hi Manvi, thank you, but the link just leads back to the ideas page, I don't see any feature request button.
