Approval Sequence
Hello Team,
We are seeking to implement an approval sequence for assets within our Content Management Platform (CMP). Our objective is to ensure that once content is uploaded, it undergoes a structured approval process, preventing direct uploads without oversight.
To illustrate, similar to how content updates in the PaaS platform are subjected to a configured approval workflow, we aim to establish a comparable process for assets in CMP.
It has come to our attention that this functionality is currently unavailable. We believe that enabling such a workflow would significantly enhance our content management process by ensuring that any asset updates…

Remove or role restrict the “Request access” / “Request higher license” banner in CMP/DAM
Problem Statement:
Users in CMP/DAM are currently seeing a banner stating “You only have view rights” with a “Request” button. This banner appears even for users who:Already have higher access roles (e.g., CMP Creator)
Have not been restricted from assets
Should not be requesting higher access based on internal governanceWhen users click “Request”, no notification or approval flow appears anywhere in the admin console ( I am admin) but notifies one seemingly randomly selected admin.
Support confirmed:
- The banner cannot be disabled
- The button cannot be hidden
We find the process behind the request to be unclear.

Browser back in library
Navigating folders isn't as intuitive as you might expect. Specifically browser back doesn't take you back up a level of the structure and instead to the page viewed before the library.
This is a fundamental usability flaw of the system behaviour not aligning with the user's mental model. As I user if I have progressed one step deeper into folders then the back button should do the reverse.
We've had many internal users report frustration with this

License Overview Function
I’d like to propose a License Overview feature that would give customers better visibility and control over their licenses within DAM. Specifically, this functionality would include:
A clear overview of the types and quantities of licenses currently held
A list of users assigned to each license
A count of available (unassigned) licenses
Several of my customers have referred to this as “basic functionality” and were surprised that this level of insight isn't already available. They’ve emphasized how such a feature would significantly enhance their internal coordination and license management across teams.
Given how often this request comes up — and…

Add permission-based control for the “Enable search engine indexing” option when uploading or editing assets / Role-Based Control of “Enabl
- Problem Statement Currently, all users who can upload images to the DAM—regardless of their role—are able to toggle the checkbox “Enable search engine indexing” on an asset. This creates a governance and security risk because:
Some images are intended for public-facing websites and should be indexable.
Other images are intended strictly for intranet use and must never be indexed by search engines.Because all roles can toggle this setting, users who do not understand the implications may unintentionally expose internal assets to external search engines, or hide assets that should be indexable.
Today, even low permission users can make indexing…4 votes -
library standard fields
We currently are limited with setting "Library Standard Fields" within the Library (DAM). We have a taxonomy that is made of several field groups / labels but they are manual to add them. A much better experience would be to have the ability to set our own Standard Fields to include others within our taxonomy.

Expose FocalPoint per Rendition in Optimizely Graph
Optimizely CMP now supports setting a focal point on a per‑rendition basis, but this data is not currently available when querying assets via Optimizely Graph. As a result, consuming applications cannot apply the intended focal point for different rendition sizes.
Providing this data in the Graph schema and SDK models would ensure consistent rendering behavior between CMP and downstream experiences.3 votes -
Global Admin Visibility Across All Folders and Assets
Admins currently can’t view all folders and assets unless they’re explicitly shared or accessed via direct URL. This limits their ability to manage the platform effectively, ensure governance, and support users.
Request: Add a global permission or “Super Admin” role that grants read access to all content across the tenant, regardless of sharing settings. This would greatly improve governance, troubleshooting, and overall administrative efficiency.

DAM Forces Manual Folder-by-Folder Downloads
DAM Forces Manual Folder-by-Folder Downloads
Summary / Problem:
Users cannot download a parent folder and all of its subfolders in a single action. To download a full folder structure, users must manually open and download each subfolder one by one, making this a frequent, manual, and time-consuming task.
This limitation slows down workflows and increases the risk of incomplete downloads, especially when users need to preserve the original folder organization.
Proposed Solution:
Enable downloading at the parent folder level so that selecting "Download" on a parent folder includes all nested subfolders and assets in a single ZIP file, while preserving…

Set Focal Point by API
Allow focal point to be configured by API
Currently it can only be set from the CMP UI which makes an API call to
PUT https://cmp.optimizely.com/api/v3/library/image/<id> with the body:
{ "focal_point": { "x": <value>, "y": <value> } }
The DAM API endpoint https://docs.developers.optimizely.com/content-marketing-platform/reference/patch_images-id should allow us to send this as well.

Enable thumbnail generation for large TIFF/high‑resolution images exceeding current processing limits
Problem Statement:
When uploading large TIF or high‑resolution print‑quality assets (typically >200 MB), the CMP/DAM fails to generate thumbnails. Instead, users see a broken image icon. Optimizely has confirmed that thumbnails cannot be generated due to internal processing limitations related to file size.
This causes significant usability issues, as CMP/DAM users rely heavily on thumbnails—not filenames—to identify and select assets.- Desired Outcome / Feature Description We request support for generating thumbnails for large TIFF and high‑resolution images, regardless of original file size, through one of the following approaches (implementation method left to Optimizely):
The core requirement: All uploaded assets must…

When I rotate an image, I need to tick a box and swap the height and width value to prevent letter box lines from appearing in the new image
I am trying to rotate and image within the image library but bars appear at the top and bottom of the image when I do, after the image has saved. When I contacted support, I was told that I need to follow these steps.
1. Rotate the image
2. Uncheck the Keep Resolution checkbox
3. Swap the width and height values in the Crop Size inputIn any other image editing software I have ever used, I just click a Rotate button, this seems like a big step backwards in usability.
The attached image shows an image which was rotated…

Enable Drag-and-Drop Folder Navigation and Asset Relocation After Bulk Upload
When users perform a bulk upload of assets into the DAM, they typically upload all files into a single, temporary folder (e.g., “Bulk Upload”). Afterward, users need to organize these assets into their proper folders within the DAM catalog structure.
Currently, the process requires opening multiple folders and manually moving each file, which is time-consuming and inefficient, especially when dealing with large batches of assets.
Users need an intuitive and efficient way to organize assets after bulk upload. This should include:
1)The ability to see the folder structure as a tree view in the DAM interface.
2)The ability to drag…

Face Recognition Capability for Asset Management and GDPR Compliance
We manage a large number of digital assets (images and videos) containing identifiable individuals. Under GDPR, these assets are considered personal data and require proper consent management, traceability, and the ability to identify and remove or restrict usage upon request.
Currently, there is no functionality in the DAM to automatically identify individuals within assets, which makes manual compliance checks time-consuming and prone to human error.
Functional Requirements
Automatic Detection:
The DAM should automatically identify human faces in uploaded assets (images/videos).
Detected faces should be visually highlighted and optionally labeled.
Consent Linking:
Each identified individual should be linkable to a stored…

Display Out of the Box Metadata in Column View in DAM For Auditing
Make OOB fields like "Enable Search Engine Indexing," "Description," and "Alt Text" available to add to the columns in the Library. I need to audit these fields and there are limitations on reporting. I would like to use the columns to visually audit assets as well as exporting a csv.

upload
Improve clarity and prevent user mistakes by redesigning how actions such as “Apply” and “Done” work and are presented in the Upload asset interface. Today, the interface gives mixed signals:
- Apply appears to save metadata but then clears the fields, causing confusion.
- "Done" actually performs the upload, but this is not communicated clearly.
As a result, users believe changes are saved, but the image can disappear without warning.
Our proposal is to:
- Clarify button labels and functions (e.g., replace “Done” with “Upload” or “Save & Close”).
- Ensure metadata fields do not reset unexpectedly.
- Provide clear confirmation messages and warnings before…

Searching within the DAM when adding an image in the CMS
Business analyst / Content integrator
We would like additional functionality to browse in the folders of the DAM to find an image. Currently we can only search images in the search bar on the name of the image.
For now this works fine, however when we have more then 4-9 websites about kitchens live. Then the word kitchen will show a lot of the other brands mixed in the results. This will make choosing an image more error prone.
So to make the DAM more future proof a folder selection of the brand would be great.
Kind regards,
Jeroen1 vote
