System, method and computer program product for templated export of content
View Patent ↗Embodiments disclosed herein provide systems and methods for a templated export. In one embodiment, a method may include determining an export template responsive to a first user action, the first user action indicating a delivery endpoint. The method may further include preparing an asset for delivery to the delivery endpoint utilizing the export template. The asset may include zero or more files. The export template may include predetermined configuration and delivery parameters particular to the delivery endpoint. The prepared asset may be communicated to the delivery endpoint without any further user action.
1. A templated export method, comprising:
performing, by an export system operating on at least one server machine having at least one processor and non-transitory computer memory:
receiving from a user device an asset type associated with a file, the file stored in a repository accessible by the export system;
determining a delivery template for a delivery endpoint configured to receive files having the asset type;
based on the delivery template, determining delivery options for the file;
communicating the delivery options for the file to the user device;
receiving from the user device an indication of a user selecting a delivery option of the delivery options for the file;
based on the delivery option selected by the user, determining or obtaining file handling parameters for the delivery endpoint;
retrieving the file from the repository;
preparing the file for export to the delivery endpoint using the file handling parameters for the delivery endpoint; and
communicating the file prepared for export to the delivery endpoint without any further user input.
2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the file handling parameters for the delivery endpoint are determined from a file handling template associated with the delivery option selected by the user.
3. The method according to claim 2 , wherein the export system utilizes the file handing template for processing metadata and content associated with the file and wherein the export system separately delivers the metadata and content to the delivery endpoint.
4. The method according to claim 1 , wherein at least one of the file handling parameters is configurable by the user via a user interface running on the user device.
5. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the file handling parameters are fixed, non-editable, or non-viewable by the user.
6. The method according to claim 1 , further comprising:
maintaining delivery parameters used in exporting the file to the delivery endpoint as a preference associated with the user.
7. The method according to claim 6 , further comprising:
responsive to the user entering a new export process, setting new delivery parameters to same values of the delivery parameters based on the preference associated with the user.
8. A computer program product comprising at least one non-transitory computer-readable medium storing instructions translatable by an export system operating on at least one server machine having at least one processor to perform:
receiving from a user device an asset type associated with a file, the file stored in a repository accessible by the export system;
determining a delivery template for a delivery endpoint configured to receive files having the asset type;
based on the delivery template, determining delivery options for the file;
communicating the delivery options for the file to the user device;
receiving from the user device an indication of a user selecting a delivery option of the delivery options for the file;
based on the delivery option selected by the user, determining or obtaining file handling parameters for the delivery endpoint;
retrieving the file from the repository;
preparing the file for export to the delivery endpoint using the file handling parameters for the delivery endpoint; and
communicating the file prepared for export to the delivery endpoint without any further user input.
9. The computer program product of claim 8 , wherein the file handling parameters for the delivery endpoint are determined from a file handling template associated with the delivery option selected by the user.
10. The computer program product of claim 9 , wherein the instructions are translatable by the at least one processor for processing metadata and content associated with the file utilizing the file handing template and for separately delivering the metadata and content to the delivery endpoint.
11. The computer program product of claim 8 , wherein at least one of the file handling parameters is configurable by the user via a user interface running on the user device.
12. The computer program product of claim 8 , wherein the file handling parameters are fixed, non-editable, or non-viewable by the user.
13. The computer program product of claim 8 , wherein the instructions are translatable by the at least one processor for maintaining delivery parameters used in exporting the file to the delivery endpoint as a preference associated with the user.
14. The computer program product of claim 13 , wherein the instructions are translatable by the at least one processor for, responsive to the user entering a new export process, setting new delivery parameters to same values of the delivery parameters based on the preference associated with the user.
15. An export system, comprising:
at least one server machine having at least one processor and non-transitory computer memory;
stored instructions translatable by the at least one processor to perform:
receiving from a user device an asset type associated with a file, the file stored in a repository accessible by the export system;
determining a delivery template for a delivery endpoint configured to receive files having the asset type;
based on the delivery template, determining delivery options for the file;
communicating the delivery options for the file to the user device;
receiving from the user device an indication of a user selecting a delivery option of the delivery options for the file;
based on the delivery option selected by the user, determining or obtaining file handling parameters for the delivery endpoint;
retrieving the file from the repository;
preparing the file for export to the delivery endpoint using the file handling parameters for the delivery endpoint; and
communicating the file prepared for export to the delivery endpoint without any further user input.
16. The export system of claim 15 , wherein the file handling parameters for the delivery endpoint are determined from a file handling template associated with the delivery option selected by the user.
17. The export system of claim 16 , wherein the instructions are translatable by the at least one processor for processing metadata and content associated with the file utilizing the file handing template and for separately delivering the metadata and content to the delivery endpoint.
18. The export system of claim 15 , wherein at least one of the file handling parameters is configurable by the user via a user interface running on the user device.
19. The export system of claim 15 , wherein the file handling parameters are fixed, non-editable, or non-viewable by the user.
20. The export system of claim 15 , wherein the instructions are translatable by the at least one processor for maintaining delivery parameters used in exporting the file to the delivery endpoint as a preference associated with the user.
21. The export system of claim 20 , wherein the instructions are translatable by the at least one processor for, responsive to the user entering a new export process, setting new delivery parameters to same values of the delivery parameters based on the preference associated with the user.
