Version 52.20-26

DF Studio is proud to offer its users precise control over access to their content, both within and outside of the application. Customizable permissions and Visual Screen Protection (VSP) keep asset libraries protected, whenever and wherever; features like link tracking, watermarking, and expiration date controls help accounts maintain control over their assets even after they’ve been sent outside the system. In the latest DF Studio update, we’ve added the Messenger PIN—yet another feature that keeps Messengers protected and in the right hands. This newest update also contains important enhancements and bug fixes.

Messenger PIN

DF Studio accounts are now configured to use the Messenger PIN feature, which generates a unique PIN for each recipient that is required to access the contents of a Messenger. The Messenger PIN functions similarly to DF Studio’s Browser Verification feature: each time a Messenger recipient accesses a protected Messenger link from a new web browser, his or her identity must be verified by inputting a six-digit PIN which is distributed by email. Anyone who was not a specified recipient of the Messenger will not receive this email and will therefore be denied access.

While every Messenger link is secure and unique, this feature provides an extra layer of protection in case a Messenger link falls into the wrong hands.

Enhancements

  • When using the “Find Assets in Project” feature to perform a search, users may now filter results by Setup, Select Level, Edit, or feature.
  • Setup name, Project name, and folder name have been added to the Enterprise API.
  • Enterprise and Team level accounts may now specify default watermark settings for Messengers. Please contact DF Studio support to configure these account-wide settings.
  • Approval state is now available in the “Export as Text” feature.
