Include component name in validation error message
Currently, when we try to publish and some required properties are missing from an experience or a component from the experience outline, we only see a simple validation message that the property is missing. The problem is that we might have that property on many components and we can't tell from the validation message alone which is the component that causes the problem, so we have to manually find it.
It would be great to also include the component name in the validation message.

Shareable external preview links for unpublished (draft) content
Problem
In Optimizely CMS (SaaS) there is currently no way for content editors to generate a long-lived, shareable preview link for unpublished/draft content that external stakeholders can open without a CMS / Opti ID account.
Current limitations:The official preview token expires in only 5–10 minutes.
The only official recommendation is to give stakeholders limited CMS access so they can open the page in Visual Builder themselves.
This creates friction for external reviews (clients, legal, marketing stakeholders, executives, agencies, etc.) and forces customers to either:
Maintain a separate staging environment, or
Build custom workarounds.This was a solved problem on…

Need the ability to set the TinyMCE Toolbar height
CMS (SaaS) does not currently expose an explicit height/width setting for the rich-text editor. Unlike CMS PaaS (where the editor size can be set in code via the TinyMCE Configuration API), SaaS is configured entirely through the content-type contract, and the only editor setting available for a rich-text property is the toolbar preset.
As a developer worried with the user experience, I would like to have the ability to set the text area's height, at least.

Saas CMS LongString TextArea
Adding an optional toggle to allow Longstring properties to display as Text areas for CMS editors would be useful.
22 votesThank you for your suggestion! We have this on the roadmap, however not limited to LongString properties. As the regular string supports up to 255 chars it applies to this type as well.

editing our website is not intuitive and the button symbols are so rarely intuitive with their functions
I manage our website and we just switched over to Optimizely. It is FAR better than our old system! However, editing our website is not intuitive and the button symbols are so rarely intuitive with their functions. Minimally when you hover over a button it should tell you what it's function is, please!

SaaS CMS -- undo/redo feature within versions
On PaaS CMS, there's an ability to roll back/undo changes made within a content version during the current session (see screenshot).
For ex: if I make multiple changes to this page, then clicking that "Undo" link will revert the last change (and clicking it again will revert the prior change, etc) all within the current content version.
In PaaS, if you leave the CMS, or just change pages within the CMS, that link goes away, but it can be helpful at times -- would be great to have this available in SaaS CMS.

Automated "Set-and-Forget" Multi-Language Translation and Publishing via Opal AI
We currently manage our website in English plus 13 additional languages. Currently, the workflow to translate content requires editors to manually open each target language version in the Languages gadget, initiate auto-translate via Opal, and then manually publish each version. This requires a minimum of 13 separate clicks/actions for every single content change.
We would like a "set-and-forget" automation rule or workflow capability. When a page or block is published in the master language (English):
1. An automated workflow triggers immediately.
2. It sends the updated English content to Opal AI's Content Translation engine.
3. It automatically updates, localizes, and…1 vote -
Is DNS SEC on Optimizely's roadmap and when will it be targeted?

Ring Deployments - release tiers should apply to the embedded DAM as well as CMS
When we have a CMS instance on the Conservative ring, it does not prevent updates to the associated DAM instance (and Graph schema for that DAM instance), which can cause issues when the CMS graph doesn't get updated at the same time. See support ticket #1910807 for an example.

CMS 13 - DAM Asset Picker Showing Multiple CMP instances
In CMS 13 with CMP DAM integration, the DAM Library Picker currently prompts users to manually select a CMP instance when they have access to multiple instances. For users such as partners who frequently work across multiple instances, this creates unnecessary friction and interrupts the workflow.
The expected behavior is that CMS should automatically open or restrict the picker to a specific CMP instance based on its configuration, eliminating the need for manual selection. The DAM Library Picker already supports targeting specific instances (e.g., via instanceIds), but this capability is not currently utilized or exposed in the CMS integration.https://docs.developers.optimizely.com/content-marketing-platform/docs/library-picker#pass-options-in-url

Retain outline structure on all translations when making changes in Experience
When I have multiple languages of my site and I want to retain the outline of my Experience of all languages this is currently not synced. When I move sections around I have to manually do this for every language.
We would like an option to keep the outline in sync for all languages, and only adjust the translations
Currently Experiences are not an option for sites that use multiple languages but are managed by a single team that wants the same structure. They are better off using Pages

Localised Alt Text Support with CMS/DAM Integration
There is no option to add Alt Text in multiple languages to assets when using the DAM Asset Picker within the CMS.
With the European Accessibility Act (EAA) taking effect in June it is imperative that we are able to maintain the level of accessibility (via localised alt text) that we had prior to using the DAM integration.
15 votesGood news - this idea is now being explored by our product and design teams. We’re researching potential solutions and scoping out what an implementation might look like.

Ability to Pick Nested Property for Header in Block List Properties
When enabling the "List" option for a "block" property type, adding blocks to an actual instance of my item only shows the name of the block type in the list and it is impossible to differentiate each item without opening them all (see attached screenshot). In the non-SaaS version of the CMS I see there is a way in code to set a nested property as the item header using

Restrict Content and Content types via API keys to a group or site
As a CMS admin, I want to provide access to my development team/delivery apis to a site or sites and content types with the right level of access. (Read, Edit, delete, Create)
This would enable teams to work in an isolated manner that.
One thought is to be able to assign a Content type to a Site or Sites.
2 votesThis effort will be taken up as part of an API framework that will be added to our REST API's. We are expected to pick up the development later in 2026.

Desktop/Tablet/mobile feature for preview is not available for standard page in visual builder
For content managers and editors, it is essential to have the ability to preview pages across multiple device types. Currently, this functionality is limited to Experience Types only.
This is a significant gap, as standard pages are also being created and previewed within the Visual Builder. Enabling multi-device preview for these pages would greatly enhance the content editing and validation experience for editors and managers.

Add Export Button to CMS Built-in Reports
CMS has several built-in reports under the Reports tab (Simple Addresses, Expired Pages, Link Status, etc.) that display useful content data, but none of them offer an export option. Users can view the data on screen, but have no way to download it, only copy paste it.
Adding a CSV export button to these reports would be helpful. The data is already being generated and rendered. The Simple Addresses report is a common pain point, as customers regularly need to audit simple addresses across their site and currently have to resort to Graph queries or custom API calls to extract…
