<h2>{% trans %}Goal{% endtrans %}</h2>
 | 
			
		||||
<p>{% trans %}Add a new media type that can be referenced in Media reference fields; media types are a content entity type. See {{ media_topic }} for an overview of media items and media types, and {{ content_structure_topic }} for more information on content entities and fields.{% endtrans %}</p>

<h2>{% trans %}Steps{% endtrans %}</h2>

		||||

		||||
  <li>{% trans %}In the <em>Manage</em> administrative menu, navigate to <em>Structure</em> > {{ media_link }}.{% endtrans %}</li>

		||||
  <li>{% trans %}Enter a <em>Name</em> and <em>Description</em> for your media type, and select the <em>Media source</em>.{% endtrans %}</li>
 | 
			
		||||
  <li>{% trans %}For most media sources, there is additional information that will need to be stored with your media item, in a field on your media type. Under <em>Media source configuration</em>, select an existing field to re-use to store this information, or select <em> - Create -</em> to create a new field.{% endtrans %}</li>
 | 
			
		||||
  <li>{% trans %}Note the types of metadata in the <em>Field mapping</em> section that can be mapped to fields on your media type.{% endtrans %}</li>

 | 
			
		||||
  <li>{% trans %}If you have added metadata fields, click <em>Edit</em>. Under <em>Field mapping</em>, select the fields you added for each piece of metadata information.{% endtrans %}</li>
 | 
			
		||||
