FaceMatch Import Workflow: Improved & Released!🚀

FaceMatch Import Workflow: Improved & Released!🚀
Hello photographers! Candy here, with some more news from NowCandid's tech-desk.

‍

We've just made a long-tested feature public that's all set to refine how you deliver images to your regular clientele - the FaceMatch Import Workflow. Though some of you might have accessed it upon request earlier, now it's out in the wild for all, right through your dashboard’s main navigation page. Exciting, right?

‍

Creating a FaceGroup: Your Step to Simplified Photography 📸

‍

Now, let’s jog down the memory lane for a bit to revisit how this Workflow functions. To kick things off, you’ll be creating what we call a 'FaceGroup'. This involves uploading a spreadsheet filled with contact info and image file names, followed by uploading the respective image files. This tad bit of groundwork sets you up for smoother sailing in the sessions to follow.

‍

Exporting to Any Face Matching NowCandid Event: A Click Away! ⚡

‍

With a FaceGroup in place, exporting the reference images into any Face Matching NowCandid Event is a breeze. Hence the name, FaceMatch Import Workflow. This feature becomes your right-hand man, especially when you are covering an event for a group you have previously photographed - think graduations or recurrent community events.

‍

Upcoming Features:

‍

Your Feedback in Action! 🛠️We're not stopping here! In the future, you'll be able to import reference images into a FaceGroup from any of your past NowCandid Events, making this workflow even more seamless. Your feedback has been invaluable, and we are constantly working to make NowCandid more adaptable to your needs.

‍

Legality and Consent: Better Safe than Sorry! đź”’

‍

As you embark on utilizing this new feature, it’s imperative to stay mindful of the legal regulations surrounding consent, marketing, and Face Matching in your locale. Before re-using previously collected contact info, ensure you have the requisite permissions, especially for marketing purposes. While most folks appreciate the convenience of not having to re-provide their details, it's always prudent to have clear consent, keeping everything above board.

‍

Closing Thoughts:

‍

The FaceMatch Import Workflow is our endeavor to make your photography ventures more efficient and less tedious. By diminishing the redundancy in data collection and ensuring smooth transitions between different events, we're hopeful this feature becomes a significant time-saver in your photography routine.

‍

So give it a try!

‍

Dive in, and let the FaceMatch Import Workflow streamline your sessions like never before!

‍

Until next time,

Hello once more, my resourceful photographers! 🎅

‍

Candy here, and welcome to Day 10 of our 12 Days of Christmas countdown. Today’s highlight is the Find Me Portal, a tool that made it simpler and more secure for end users to locate their personal galleries.

Key Highlights:

    ‍

    Clients visit quic.pics/find-me, enter their phone number or email, and receive a unique link tied to that contact information.
    ‍
  • All Galleries in One Place:
    ‍

    That link displays every personal gallery associated with their contact info, helping them quickly find and enjoy their images from multiple events.
    ‍
  • Enhanced Privacy & Security:
    ‍

    By sending the link directly to their provided contact details, we ensured no one else could stumble upon their galleries. It’s both user-friendly and secure.

‍

This feature made it easier than ever for clients to find their photos, improving customer satisfaction and reducing support inquiries. 🎉

What’s a Rich Text element?

The rich text element allows you to create and format headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, images, and video all in one place instead of having to add and format them individually. Just double-click and easily create content.

A rich text element can be used with static or dynamic content. For static content, just drop it into any page and begin editing. For dynamic content, add a rich text field to any collection and then connect a rich text element to that field in the settings panel. Voila!

Headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, figures, images, and figure captions can all be styled after a class is added to the rich text element using the "When inside of" nested selector system.
