Creative Force Academy Upgrade
We couldn’t be more excited to share with you that Creative Force Academy has received a huge makeover for 2022!
We know you and your teams are creative people, so we’ve done a ton of work to transition to a completely new learning platform that caters to visually-oriented users. From the styling to the navigation around the site, we’ve improved every aspect of the learning experience to make getting started in Creative Force as enjoyable as possible.
We’ve also launched our new Editorial courses with the new platform!
We’ve given Academy a facelift!
Just as before, you'll find Creative Force Academy at academy.creativeforce.io
If you have any feedback, please don’t hesitate to contact Aaron Horwath, our Head of Learning, at aaron@creativeforce.io with any suggestions you have.
Copy outfit to another production type
We have added support for copying an outfit from one production type to another.
Pro Tip: This is especially useful if you produce style outs as a separate production type. It’s now much easier to copy over the outfit, with all product information, with just a few clicks!
Easily copy your outfit from production type to another with the “Duplicate Outfit” action.
Outfit APIs
Three new methods have been made available. These will allow you to pull outfit information via the public API.
GET /outfits?productid={productId}
GET /outfits/{outfitId}/products
GET /outfits/{outfitId}

Update Alts Button
Update Alts Panel
