That's a whole stream of addition that will help boost your daily branding operations: admins will dramatically streamline project management workflows, promote consistency, and provide contributors with comprehensive information for efficient project initiation. Thanks to project metadata, you can now set up and define the metadata fields required when starting new projects, organize and use project templates, and enjoy a brand new project brief to pass down all the information needed in advance and reduce time-consuming back-and-forth between the project creators and contributors.

New features 🆕


The following new features were released to enhance your experience:

  • Libraries: Backend Asset Sharing
    Easily share an asset internally or externally from the library backend. The external share links are now user-specific, meaning each backend user can create their own protection measures (password and /or validity date) to further control access to the shared assets.
  • Libraries: Metadata Dependencies
    Efficiently curate custom metadata properties and avoid contradictory values by implementing metadata dependencies. Easily configure visibility dependencies between custom metadata properties based on values that have been set. The library editor will only see the properties they need to see based on the filled values of the selected assets.
  • Projects: Project Governance
    Define required project metadata fields, set default project templates, and enjoy a brand new project brief. Thanks to Project Governance, admins will dramatically streamline project management workflows, promote consistency, and provide contributors with comprehensive information for efficient project initiation.

Improvements 🛠️

This week, we crushed these bugs to give you a better experience:

  • Digital & Print Templates: We have improved the accuracy of text alignment and, thus, the detection of text overset. Previously, the text was sometimes displayed as overset, although correct.
