Brandfolder - Preservica Integration and Automation

Common Integration Use Cases Between Brandfolder and Preservica

1. Publish approved brand assets from Brandfolder into Preservica for long-term retention

Direction: Brandfolder to Preservica

Marketing teams can push finalized logos, campaign visuals, product photography, and brand guidelines from Brandfolder into Preservica once assets are approved and no longer actively changing. Preservica then preserves the official record version with retention controls, metadata, and auditability.

• Ensures a defensible archive of brand-approved content
• Reduces risk of losing final versions after campaigns end
• Supports legal, compliance, and records management requirements

2. Sync preservation metadata from Preservica back to Brandfolder for asset governance

Direction: Preservica to Brandfolder

When Preservica applies retention class, archive date, legal hold status, or record identifiers, that metadata can be written back to Brandfolder so marketing and product teams can see which assets are governed by formal retention policies.

• Improves visibility into asset lifecycle status
• Helps teams avoid editing or deleting controlled records
• Supports governance without forcing users to work in the archive system

3. Automatically archive retired campaign assets after expiration

Direction: Brandfolder to Preservica

At the end of a campaign, assets in Brandfolder can be automatically transferred to Preservica based on rules such as campaign end date, last modified date, or approval status. This creates a clean handoff from active brand use to compliant long-term storage.

• Reduces manual cleanup in Brandfolder
• Prevents outdated assets from remaining in active circulation
• Creates a repeatable offboarding process for campaigns and product launches

4. Preserve source files and derivatives together for audit and reuse

Direction: Bi-directional

Brandfolder can send both original source files and derivative renditions to Preservica, while Preservica can return archive references or preservation copies to Brandfolder. This helps organizations maintain a complete chain of custody for creative assets, including master files, approved outputs, and supporting documentation.

• Improves traceability across the asset lifecycle
• Supports future reuse of approved content
• Provides a stronger audit trail for regulated industries

5. Route final brand guidelines and identity standards into the corporate archive

Direction: Brandfolder to Preservica

Brand guidelines, typography standards, logo usage rules, and approved templates stored in Brandfolder can be archived in Preservica as official corporate records. This is especially useful when brand standards change and older versions must remain accessible for historical reference or legal review.

• Keeps authoritative brand standards preserved over time
• Supports legal discovery and historical reference needs
• Helps global teams access the correct version history

6. Expose archived assets from Preservica back into Brandfolder for controlled access

Direction: Preservica to Brandfolder

When teams need to reuse older approved assets, Preservica can provide access links or selected archive copies back into Brandfolder. This allows marketing, communications, and product teams to find legacy content without searching the archive directly.

• Improves discoverability of historical assets
• Reduces duplicate storage and re-creation of content
• Maintains controlled access to preserved materials

7. Preserve compliance evidence for regulated brand content

Direction: Brandfolder to Preservica

For regulated industries, Brandfolder can send approved advertisements, packaging artwork, disclaimers, and release documentation to Preservica as compliance evidence. Preservica then stores these records with retention and audit controls to support internal reviews and external audits.

• Strengthens compliance documentation
• Speeds up audit response and legal review
• Creates a reliable record of what was published and when
