How to create an album and configure it

Create an album inside a MyRun event and understand its settings - published, private, timeline, monetized and the recognition toggles.

Photos live in albums inside an event: one per location ("Start", "Km 21", "Finish line") or one per photographer, whatever fits your workflow.

Steps

  1. Open your event and click New Album.
  2. Enter the Album Title and save. The album card appears on the event page.
  3. Open the album and review its Settings switches: Published makes the album visible in your public gallery; Private restricts it to authenticated participants; Timeline lets participants browse its photos by time taken; Monetized puts its photos on sale (needs a price configuration); Bib / Face / Sponsor Recognition enable AI tagging for this album (all off by default).
  4. Upload photos and click any photo's Cover action to make it the album thumbnail.

Good to know

  • Recognition is opt-in per album: only albums with a recognition switch turned on consume recognition capacity and get tagged.
  • Photo Quality (next to the settings) controls the quality levels used for the album's generated image sizes.
  • When you make the whole event private, albums are set to private automatically.
