DAM setup guides

Brandfolder

Connect Brandfolder with an API key and your Brandfolder ID.

What you'll need

  • An API key with permission to read assets and add new ones
  • Your Brandfolder ID — which Brandfolder in your organization to connect

Create the API key

Generate an API key from your Brandfolder account settings. Copy it when it's shown.

Connect

  1. In the Inverity dashboard, open Connectors and choose Brandfolder.
  2. Enter the API key and the Brandfolder ID.
  3. Select the collections you want watched.

How write-back works

Inverity adds the optimized file as a new version of the asset rather than overwriting your master. See How write-back works.

Good to know

  • Confirm the Brandfolder ID. Organizations often have several Brandfolders; connecting the wrong one is the most common setup mistake here.
  • Existing assets need a run. Watching a collection covers new uploads.
  • Approval workflows. If your Brandfolder sits inside an approval process, adding versions may interact with it. Test on a small collection first — see DAM connectors.
  • Consider a conservative profile for master libraries.

Disconnecting

Remove the connector in Inverity, then revoke the API key in Brandfolder.

Troubleshooting

  • "Token is invalid" — the key may lack write permission.
  • Nothing is being optimized — confirm the Brandfolder ID is the one holding the collections you selected.
