# Use
4 years ago
The installation script automatically adds the attribution paragraphs field
to the Image media type if it exists. Otherwise adding attribution
can be done at Admin -> Structure -> Media Types.
When you click the Embed Media button, the attribution links
fields will show up in the Media along with Title, Alt text, etc.
Alternatively you can edit the media content entity directly.
The attribution paragraph field has the following components
* Source Work link, including a title and URL. This title is
usually the title of the original work.
* Original Author link, including name and URL of the author's home page.
* License type - optional, the license under which the linked work is released.
