OpenText Information Archive - Frame.io Integration and Automation

Common Integration Use Cases Between OpenText Information Archive and Frame.io

1. Archive approved video masters and final deliverables from Frame.io into OpenText Information Archive

Direction: Frame.io to OpenText Information Archive

When a video project reaches final approval in Frame.io, the approved master file, final cut, captions, and associated approval history can be automatically transferred to OpenText Information Archive for long-term retention. This supports compliance, auditability, and secure preservation of final assets after production teams have moved on to the next project.

Business value: Reduces storage costs in active collaboration environments, preserves final assets for legal or regulatory needs, and creates a reliable record of approved content versions.

2. Preserve review comments, approval records, and version history for audit and governance

Direction: Frame.io to OpenText Information Archive

Frame.io collaboration data such as reviewer comments, approval timestamps, version lineage, and sign-off records can be archived alongside the final media asset in OpenText Information Archive. This is useful for regulated industries or enterprise content governance where proof of review and approval must be retained for years.

Business value: Strengthens compliance, supports dispute resolution, and provides a defensible audit trail for content decisions.

3. Decommission legacy video storage or production repositories while retaining access to archived assets

Direction: Legacy video repository or storage source to OpenText Information Archive, with Frame.io as the active collaboration layer

Organizations modernizing their media workflow can migrate older approved video assets from legacy file shares, DAMs, or production repositories into OpenText Information Archive, then use Frame.io for current collaboration on active projects. Archived assets remain searchable and retrievable without keeping legacy systems online.

Business value: Lowers infrastructure and maintenance costs, reduces risk from obsolete systems, and simplifies access to historical media content.

4. Retrieve archived reference footage or prior campaign assets into Frame.io for reuse and review

Direction: OpenText Information Archive to Frame.io

Creative teams often need to reuse prior campaign footage, approved edits, or brand assets. An integration can allow users in Frame.io to request archived content from OpenText Information Archive and bring it into an active review workspace for adaptation, localization, or repurposing.

Business value: Speeds up content reuse, avoids duplicate production effort, and helps teams work from approved source material instead of recreating assets.

5. Automatically archive expired or superseded versions after a new Frame.io approval

Direction: Frame.io to OpenText Information Archive

When a new version of a video is approved in Frame.io, older versions can be automatically moved to OpenText Information Archive with metadata linking them to the final approved asset. This ensures only current versions remain in the active collaboration workspace while historical versions are retained for traceability.

Business value: Keeps production workspaces clean, reduces confusion over version control, and maintains a complete historical record.

6. Support legal hold and content retention for regulated or sensitive media projects

Direction: Bi-directional

If a project involves legal review, product claims, financial disclosures, or sensitive brand content, Frame.io can be used for active collaboration while OpenText Information Archive enforces retention policies and legal holds on final assets and related records. If a hold is placed, archived content remains protected from deletion even after the project is closed.

Business value: Reduces legal and compliance risk, ensures retention obligations are met, and protects critical media records from premature disposal.

7. Centralize enterprise content governance across creative and records management teams

Direction: Bi-directional

Creative teams work in Frame.io, while records, compliance, and IT teams manage retention and disposition in OpenText Information Archive. Integration can synchronize metadata such as project name, campaign ID, business unit, retention class, and disposition status so both teams operate from a consistent content governance model.

Business value: Improves cross-team coordination, standardizes retention policies, and gives the enterprise better control over media assets from creation through disposition.
