News & Announcements

We're happy to announce a new update in Drupal 👇What's new?The latest update allows the user to select their derivative in the UI dropdown. Since implementing the DAT-UI within UCV, this means a user can transform assets within the UCV itself. In this case, an option within the configuration allows the user to select the mode of the UCV they want to use.Want to learn more about the Drupal integration? Check out the knowledge base article here.A quick look at some of the benefits ✨Access based on DAM permissions to search for approved assets when creating or editing within CMS Use Bynder references URLs for public derivatives or original previews Assets can be copied to the CMS to leverage the native features and functionality of Drupal Compatible with Asset TrackerHave questions about Drupal and the integration?

Are you looking for more ways to enhance your autonomous use of Bynder? Switch from the Bynder managed SSO configuration to our latest self-service SSO 👩‍💻Firstly, it empowers administrators to make changes themselves, rather than reaching out to Bynder Support (who will be available for assistance nonetheless). This not only reduces the implementation time, but also enhances the customisability afterwards.Furthermore, this gives you a lot of advantages, such as (but not limited to):Faster implementation time: access the settings yourself (or give your internal IT permissions to directly make changes) Multiple SSO clients aside of each other: configure SAML SSO, configure Google SSO, configure OpenID SSO Managing the Look & Feel of the login page Extra insights about successful and failed log in attempts with Troubleshooting Logs Setting up and testing, at the same time of keeping your current configuration in place, to prevent any downtime for your usersAs soon as you are happy

“Has this ever happened to you?” You want to view and use the metadata in your assets in outside of Bynder but when you go to download a CSV of your metadata it downloads the physical assets along with the metadata?  If the answer is yes, we understand how frustrating this can be. As an onboarding manager, I have heard from many customers asking about this and I’m sure many of you have as well. We are proud to say those days are over. That’s why we recently introduced the ability to download just the metadata information to a CSV without downloading the physical assets. Now, you can view the metadata of your assets via the comfort of the CSV you always wanted without having to constantly download the assets along with it. Downloading metadata of your assets can be useful in a number of ways. Some reasons I have seen customers download metadata of their assets are:For audit purposes. This can allow you to view the metadata of your assets in a clear, concise way via CSV to ensure data qu

Portal User Management UIThank you Bynder, for reworking the User Management interface. This is now far easier to work with.Interface remembers your fields Interface remembers your filtering optionsBefore these changes it was incredible difficult to use this and manage DAM users, if you wanted to edit a user and after you did so, returning back to the main page would reset the page to default removing all of your filters, you would have to reset them. eg. Status -Active/Inactive, Groups and Profile level.Another great improvement, keep it coming.

Exciting news! We want to introduce you to a new feature: Predictable URLs 🚀With Predictable URLs, delivering personalized content to your target audience has never been easier. This feature allows you to retrieve and deliver content outside of the DAM using automated DAT links. 🎯Imagine serving the right content to your customers at the perfect time. Using the metadata assigned to your assets, you can quickly retrieve the exact content you need, enhancing your content delivery and creating exceptional experiences for your audience. What are some of the key benefits?Efficiency in content selection/asset retrieval: enables quick and automated retrieval of assets through publicly accessible links based on metadata properties Targeted content delivery: allows for assets to be selected based on specific metadata properties, enabling content to be tailored to the specific needs of customers. Improved SEO: optional name parameters in the URL help with search engine optimization efforts by

Rather than AI for AI’s sake, we’re committed to strategies that accelerate time to market, automate tedious tasks, scale content creation and delivery, and increase ROI - all on your terms. We hope you’ll join us for an interactive webinar where we’ll explore our approach to AI and automation, what’s on our roadmap, and how it all keeps you in control of your content while improving day-to-day operations. If you haven’t registered already, you can find the links by time zone below:Using AI and Automation in your DAM, Wednesday, June 28, 16:00 CET/15:00 GMT register here Using AI and Automation in your DAM, Thursday, June 29th, 2 pm EST/11am PST register here In order to make this session as valuable as possible, we want to hear from you.

Hi there - I’m Catherine and I lead our US Bynder Success Squad. We get a lot of questions about how DAM compares to file-sharing solutions like Dropbox, Google Drive, and Box. This post covered some of the key differences. And here are a few other differences that are particularly relevant to customers with smaller teams:DAM is designed to minimize support requests: When you’re on a small marketing or brand team, or managing the DAM is only one of the many (many) hats you wear, minimizing the number of requests you get for assets is the dream! Through the use of structured data, DAMs are designed to help your users find what they need when they need it. Those users can use their own search terms and filtering to reach the right assets, and not have to rely on a rigid, predefined folder path. Groups & Restrictions: Permissioning and visibility restrictions are core to DAM, so you can have confidence that your teams have the right access to the right content. Via groups and restric
