DAM United
DAMupload
Digital asset management systems are functionally extremely powerful. In practice, however, they lead to difficulties in some cases, especially when it comes to uploading images:
- Users such as photographers, sales representatives, or even influencers who want to upload images externally must first be registered in the DAM for a license. Individual upload options, e.g. for events, product presentations, press conferences, etc., are difficult.
- “Power users” who regularly upload many images and maintain metadata have to complete regular click and copy-paste marathons, i.e. waste a lot of valuable time on repetitive work in order to get the many images properly into the DAM. This can be marketing staff, agencies, photographers or business partners.
DAMupload puts an end to these restrictions, offers you full flexibility and solves both challenges under a modern, responsive and CI-adaptable interface:
Provide external users with an easy way to upload images including valid metadata to DAM (e.g. CELUM) with DAMupload:
With DAMupload it is possible to upload assets such as images, documents, videos etc. web-based via API to another system. For the upload, the user does not have to be created and logged in to the (DAM) system itself. This brings a lot of freedom. Verification – if verification is desired – is simply done via e-mail or via a stored whitelist. DAMupload itself can be completely customized and configured: e.g. via free text fields, mandatory/voluntary fields, metadata, IDs, deposit of terms of use, logos, images, colors, languages etc. The upload itself can be restricted by type, size, number etc. of assets.
The advantages at a glance:
- Importing assets into DAM, PIM, CMS, etc. easily and safely
- Set any number of upload beneficiaries without additional license costs
- Define input fields, image properties, etc. individually
- Cleanly maintained asset portfolio guarantee
- Upload images with any mobile device in a fully responsive web interface
- Simplified workflow: Images can easily be assigned to products, events etc.
DAMupload as DAM upload hub for power users
DAMupload is the optimal upload portal for content managers with various upload options: Videos, images, sound files, etc. can be easily uploaded to DAM with their respective file-typical metadata fields. This makes it perfect for all internal and external users who regularly want to upload many assets in a simple and metadata-compliant way.
The essential power features at a glance:
- Easy upload of new asset versions: Assets such as images and graphic files that already exist in the DAM and are updated are recognized as a new version. Existing metadata is transferred and does not need to be entered manually again. Version detection uses unique file names at folder/node level and is configurable per upload target
- Saving and loading of form/metadata templates
- Editing metadata is possible for all assets, or limited to individual assets; e.g. all assets are assigned the same photographer, but all have different descriptions
- Vertical editing, one form field can be edited for all image files in one go
- Configurable filename extraction, e.g.: company_video_DE.mov, company_video_EN.mov -> can extract DE and EN and assign them to a form field (metadata field)
- Batch Input Editor for simultaneous input of multiple values (e.g. from a list), thereby a comparison for validity with the DAM system takes place
- Preliminary Upload Portal for the selection of different upload targets
