The Digizuite DAM Platform provide the toolbox which will fit your custom integration needs. We can make sure all your digital assets and related metadata stored in Digizuite™ DAM are accessible in your other systems, such as your CMS, PIM, data warehouse, ecommerce or social media tool, giving you efficient and smooth digital workflows in your own environment. All from using pre-built connectors, to capabilities within the platform and then to APIs & SDKs when 100% control is needed.

Here we’ll go through the following

Sub-pages that is found in this domain:

  • Prebuilt Connectors: First introducing Pre-built connectors are that are all maintained by Digizuite. This list does not contain partner pre-built conenctors.

  • Integration Functionality: Integration Capabilities within the platform for certain integration patterns

  • API & SDK when 100% control is needed for your custom integration

Pre-built Connectors

Digizuite offers a wide range of connectors (read more on our website: https://www.digizuite.com/open-api-dam-system ). Many pre-built connectors are maintained by Digizuite and are constantly improved by each release cycle.
R&D focuses on an architecture which allows us to re-use components across many our our connectors. It creates not only efficiency and stability but also enables reusability of functionality across many connectors.

As an example, consider the following

  • Adobe Creative Cloud Connector
    We have support for Adobe InDesign, Photoshop, Illustrator, Premiere Pro and After Effects with our newest version of the Creative Cloud ConnectorDigizuite™ Adobe Creative Cloud Connector. It is fully maintained by Digizuite and has many separate release throughout the year.

  • Office Connector
    Support for Power Point, Word and other Office365 products. Fully developed and maintained by Digizuite using the same principles as for our Media Manager and Adobe Cloud Connector. Ready more here Digizuite™ Office Connector.

  • Digizuite Mobile
    Providing mobile-first experience of your Digital Asset Management platform. Explore and present all your Digital assets on the go even without an internet connection. Read more here: Digizuite™ Mobile

  • DAM for Sitecore
    Digizuite™ DAM for Sitecore is a must-have tool for managing marketing channels from one platform. We have a lot of experience and have created an professional and stable CMS integration layer that allows seamless integration of all high-quality content. Sitecore editors can integrate enterprise digital asset management software and customer experience management for high-quality brand experiences across multiple channels. See more hereDigizuite™ DAM for Sitecore

  • DAM for Optimizely
    As mentioned for DAM for Sitecore, then DAM for Optimizely (formerly Episerver) is again utilizing our CMS integration layer for data exchange. It enables marketers, sales teams and Optimizely editors to get immediate access to digital assets directly from within Optimizely (formerly Episerver), without having to leave the Episerver environment. See our documentation here: Digizuite™ DAM for Episerver

  • Digizuite Insights
    We have made it easy to make data-driven decisions by providing a powerful business reporting service that is built on top of Microsoft Power BI. All included out of the box. Digizuite™ Insights is fully customizable and you can combine data from Digizuite™ with additional business-critical metrics from other tools in your Power BI dashboard. Check out the documentation hereDigizuite™ Insights

Toolbox & Integration Patterns

The Digizuite DAM comes with a toolbox of functionality that allows you standardize the integration process following certain patterns. Do you need 100% control and access to all functionality then you can choose our great open API or our SDK that is documented further down. Before going down that route it might be well worth investigating the standard toolbox that Digizuite already provides

Patterns that are very common in the Enterprise Ecosystem would be

  1. Broadcast or one-way Data Exchange
    A form of integration where (based on some business logic within DAM), data is send to a receiving system. It be very specific business logic that triggers it such as certain metadata fields changing and has a certain value, or it can be all creates, modifications and deletes of assets that must flow to the receiving end.

  2. Bi-direction Data Exchange
    It is a combination of the above, but where either certain must be broadcasted but then based on the response something updated in the broadcasting end (Digizuite). Here it could more complicated where certain changes in the receiving system must trigger updates in the Digizuite platform.

  3. Correlation Data Exchange
    Data from the integrated systems must be correlated in certain ways. An example could be a PIM platform that must not only receive assets but those assets must automatically be linked to a product based on the Product ID on a metadata field on the asset in Digizuite.

  4. Enhanced UI with an Asset Picker
    An integration pattern that does not as such move data around is enhancing a 3rd party UI with more capability coming from another system. An asset picker from Digizuite which is being popped on a certain action. When an asset is selected or clicked in the asset picker then at that time it must be integrated into the 3rd party platform (could be adding the assets into a media library, or adding it to an email template for adding it for your product in a PIM as done with our InRiver connector)

  5. Combined Data Exchange and UI
    This one combines both data exchange (where assets are moved back and forth) with having UI capability in the 3d party platform as described above. Essentially, you have flow of data that is then further complimented with a UI that allows you handle assets in Digizuite right there when needed. An example is making a crop that is then automatically flowing from Digizuite to the receiving system. It could be updating metadata such as assigning a product ID without leaving your host platform which will then trigger the integration in real time.

API & SDK

Our API is central in everything we do and using our API gives you 100% control of all functionality. Find the documentation here: DC 5.6 API Documentation

The Digizuite™ API is not an afterthought - it is front and center for all our DAM functionalities. In fact, we have built our products (Digizuite™ Media Manager, DAM for Sitecore module and the DAM for Optimizely Add-on, and more more) on top of the API... and you can do the same.

Digizuite's experienced team is with you all the way to make the integration process as smooth and efficient as possible. And if you need more advice later on, we’re never further than a phone call away.

SDK is here: https://github.com/Digizuite/Digizuite.SDK
