# Using the Curator for DaVinci Resolve panel

#### Overview

The Curator for DaVinci Resolve panel allows you to browse and use media stored in Curator directly within DaVinci Resolve, just as you would navigate locally stored media.

From the panel, you can:

- Search for assets and collections
- Browse folder structures
- Preview assets
- Import assets directly into DaVinci Resolve

This article explains how to launch the Curator for DaVinci Resolve panel in DaVinci Resolve. To install the panel, see [How to install Curator for DaVinci Resolve](/docs/how-to-install-curator-for-davinci-resolve).

#### Launching the panel

After installation:

1. Open DaVinci Resolve.
2. Navigate to the panel via the following menu: *Workspace > Workflow Integrations > Curator for DaVinci Resolve*
3. Select **Curator for DaVinci Resolve** to open the panel.

From here, you can use the filters, folders, and search options to navigate and manage your assets, as well as the import options to import new content.

#### What you can do with the panel (Curator 4.4)

- The panel has metadata, sub-clips, explore and transcription panels, and full Curator search.
- Imports bring in the hi-res of the selected assets.
- You can import media, audio and images (not .mogrt files). Importing a sub-clip imports its parent asset. Importing a collection or folder imports its contents.
- Only file formats that DaVinci Resolve supports can be imported.
- Edits are not sent back to Curator automatically. To add your finished media to Curator, export it from DaVinci Resolve into a Curator watch folder, or upload it with Curator Connect.
