The Templafy Integration for Frontify (available on Enterprise plans only) allows you to use digital assets – living in Frontify – within your MS Office applications such as Word, PowerPoint, Excel, or Outlook.

Additionally, you can benefit from additional features, like adjusting/cropping to a certain placeholder to insert images in documents.

The Templafy Integration for Frontify lets you connect to Media, Icon, and Logo Libraries from Frontify (see illustration below).

Here are the prerequisites for using the Integration:

Add specific assets to your dedicated assets libraries: the Logo, Icon, or Media Library.

Note! The Integration can connect to one Library of each type: it is possible to link to one Media Library and one Icon library, but it is impossible to connect to two Media Libraries.

There are two authentication methods to connect the accounts:

This method will display the same content to all users without logging in (the organization's content). In this scenario, users who do not have access to Frontify can still see all of the images in the Frontify library that you decide to connect to Templafy. So if you are in PowerPoint Point (or other Microsoft Office tools), for example, all users can retrieve all of the Frontify on-brand images in that specific library and use them in their presentations.

This method is useful if you have many users in Templafy, and not all of those users have access to Frontify. To do this, contact your dedicated Frontify Customer Success Manager and fill out this request form: Templafy API Token Request form.

With this method, you can seamlessly connect Frontify to Templafy. However, only the users who are authorized to the specific Frontify library you link to Templafy can access the assets on those libraries from the Microsoft Office tools you are using. That means only backend library users can access the integrations.

This method is useful when you have sensitive or restricted content, and only a few employees can use that content in the Microsoft Office tools.

To do this, the customer needs to turn on the Templafy integration by toggling it from the integration list.

Note! You need to set up a link to each Library you would like to connect to Templafy. To do that, please consult the Templafy help article.

Depending on the connecting method you choose above, there are two ways to connect the Templafy account with Frontify.

Once you get the token from us, follow the step-by-step instructions in your Templafy account.

Within the Frontify content connector setup dialogue that you find in the Templafy admin console under the integrations section, choose the following (example below):

Only Media, Logo, and Icon Library, and only one of each

Yes, but only if you use the number 2 (OAuth 2 Authorization) as your authentication method. If you use the number 1 (Service Account Authorization method), the targets are not applied.
