Cant understand relationship between Files, Library and Lightroom?

[masplin]

Hi I'm new to CC and really confused about how to use these different aspects of CC.

I've worked out if I click the squiggly arrow in lightroom next to a collection they appear in the "Lightroom" section of CC.   However from here i don't seem to be able to do much with them them. I can sent it as a tiny thumbnail by email, but that seems about all. to send a full size image seems to involve saving to device. Is that really what you have to do?

On other other hand I have a D500 connected to my device by snapbridge. i uploaded from my camera to snapbridge then from snapbridge to CC, but it appears in "Files".  i can see anyway to get it into lightroom?  Can you add files taken on the device uploaded back to a collection in lightroom?

Under "Library" I managed to upload my snapbridge image, but no idea what I do now to get it into lightroom???

so far i cant see this is a useful tool to connect camera, device and desktop Lightroom, but assume that was one of purposes. Is there an idiot guide?

Thanks for any advice

Mike

Hi Mike,

The online features for Lightroom are somewhat similar to Snapbridge. Basically it allows you to upload your images online (via a collection) to where they can be shared between devices or with others. Please check out these articles.
