Hi @hiteshra3 ,

There is not OOTB feature that enables to automate the asset upload from your local to AEM DAM. There are difference ways to do it manually, for automation you will have to come up with some scripts. WebDav is one of the best tool to upload assets to your dam. It is a software that creates a file system of your AEM instance on your local. Refer to this link for webdav - https://experienceleague.adobe.com/docs/experience-manager-64/administering/contentmanagement/webdav-access.html?lang=en

Moreover below table defines other ways to upload assets:

Upload method When to use? Primary Persona
Assets Console user interfaceOccasional upload, ease of press and drag, finder upload. Do not use to upload a large number of assets.All users
Upload APIFor dynamic decisions during upload.Developer
Experience Manager desktop appLow volume asset ingestion, but not for migration.Administrator, Marketer
Adobe Asset LinkUseful when creatives and marketers work on assets from within the supported Creative Cloud desktop apps.Creative, Marketer
Asset bulk ingestorRecommended for large-scale migrations and occasional bulk ingestions. Only for supported datastores.Administrator, Developer
