Flexitive can help ensure the consistency of exported file names using Flexitive's Custom Naming Conventions feature. This feature is available under our Enterprise subscriptions.
Setting a Custom Naming Convention will change the naming convention of all Flexitive export formats to match the custom naming convention.
Choosing Your Naming Convention
Naming conventions are set using the design labels of each design.
When setting the naming convention for your files, you may use any of the following Design Label Fields from your Flexitive Design:
- Title
- Description
- Custom ID
- Custom Field 1
- Custom Field 2
- Country (e.g Germany/DE/DEU)
- Language (e.g English/EN/ENG)
- Channel (e.g. Display/DIS)
- File Format (e.g. HTML5/JPEG/GIF/MP4)
In addition to these design labels, you may use the following labels that are included in a Flexitive design:
- Ad Server
- CMS
- Design Size (required label)
Required Fields
When setting a Custom Naming Convention, certain fields are required to ensure that files are uniquely named:
- Master .Zip File: Timestamp
- Child .Zip File: Design Size
Naming Conventions with Multiple Libraries
Custom Naming Conventions are applied to a library in a Flexitive instance, which means that if you have multiple libraries you can have different naming conventions for those different libraries. For example, if you have different libraries to serve different purposes, such as a variety of teams for a global brand, or different clients for an agency, you'll be able to set up different naming conventions for those different teams or clients.
For a shared library, any naming convention applied to that library will be applied to any designs exported from that shared library, regardless of which instance it was viewed from. For more information on shared libraries, check out our article on Shared Libraries.
