This feature allows users to quickly find Content Automation templates within Brandfolder, seamlessly edit Content Automation templates, then export finalized assets for use. To utilize this feature you must have access to Brandfolder and the Content Automation (formerly known as Outfit) platform. Specific access requirements are denoted throughout the article.
