WoodWing - FTP Integration and Automation

Common Integration Use Cases Between WoodWing and FTP

• Automated delivery of approved product images to downstream partners
  WoodWing can export finalized product photography, packshots, and supporting media to an FTP or SFTP location for retailers, distributors, and marketplace partners that require file-based ingestion. This reduces manual file handling, ensures consistent asset delivery, and supports scheduled batch transfers for large product catalogs.
• Bulk transfer of high-resolution marketing assets to print and production vendors
  Marketing teams can use WoodWing as the source of approved campaign images, event photos, and layout files, then push large files to FTP for print houses, agencies, and production vendors. This is especially useful for time-sensitive campaigns where vendors need reliable access to large asset packages without direct system access.
• Publishing asset exchange for editorial and production workflows
  WoodWing-managed book content, InDesign layouts, photography, and ePub-related files can be exported via FTP to editorial service providers, prepress teams, or external publishers. This supports structured handoff of production-ready content and helps maintain version control across distributed publishing workflows.
• Distribution of museum and heritage collection media to archival storage or partner institutions
  Museums and heritage organizations can transfer digitized photographs, video documentation, and collection media from WoodWing to FTP-based archival repositories or partner institutions. This enables secure batch sharing of large media files for preservation, research, or collaborative curation programs.
• Inbound ingestion of externally produced media into WoodWing
  External photographers, videographers, agencies, and content studios can deposit raw or edited files into an FTP drop zone, where they are then imported into WoodWing for review, tagging, approval, and publishing. This creates a controlled intake process for large media volumes and simplifies collaboration with third parties that do not use modern APIs.
• Scheduled export of campaign asset packages for regional teams
  Central marketing teams can package approved creative assets in WoodWing and distribute them through FTP to regional offices, franchisees, or local agencies. This supports consistent brand execution while allowing local teams to retrieve the correct files from a standard folder structure on a recurring schedule.
• Backup and disaster recovery of critical digital assets
  WoodWing can periodically export selected high-value assets, such as master images, campaign files, and publishing content, to an FTP or SFTP backup location. This provides an additional recovery copy for business continuity, especially for organizations that need offline or remote file-based backup processes.
• Exchange of large video files for events and broadcast production
  Event footage, promotional videos, and broadcast-ready media stored in WoodWing can be transferred to FTP for production houses, broadcasters, or post-production teams that require large file delivery. This is useful for organizations managing high-volume video workflows where FTP remains the preferred transfer method.
