About the Frontify Content Connector

The Frontify Content Connector allows certain assets from Frontify to be accessible by users in the Templafy library pane. 

What is supported with the Frontify Content Connector?

  • Library Types: Media, Logo, and Icon.
  • General Global keyword search for assets.
  • Ability to pull custom and AI tags from Frontify.
  • Asset metadata pulled from Frontify: Name, Tags, and Type.
  • Collections. (preview only)
  • Ability to connect to specified Library.
  • Authentication:
    • OAuth 2 Authorization Code Flow - Allows for user specific content.
    • Service App authentication - Allows for global access to organization's content without user login (Client Credentials flow).

  Note

Collection Names with slashes ( / ) are not supported.

What is not supported with the Frontify Content Connector?

  • Folders - organization of assets is based on Collections rather than Folders.
  • Multiple Libraries per connector - one connector per library and asset type is needed.
  • Asset Libraries other than Media, Logo, and Icon.
  • Search by specific metadata or property.
  • Search within only a specific collection.

  Important

  • Frontify currently does not provide an API to search within a specific collection. This means that searches will always return all matching assets, no matter which collection they are a part of.
  • Even if users navigate to a collection and perform a search and then see breadcrumbs saying "Results for <search term> in <Current Collection>", the search results will still include all results available from the Frontify Connector.
