The Salesforce CMS Extension (QuickConnect) by Aprimo brings Digital Asset Management capabilities into Salesforce CMS. It enables users to browse, search, and insert brand-approved media alongside working in Salesforce. This connection helps teams use compliant, performance-ready assets across digital experiences.

What it Does

The Salesforce CMS Extension (QuickConnect) links Aprimo DAM with the Salesforce CMS environment.  Creative and marketing teams can browse, search, and select approved assets in parallel to working in Salesforce CMS, reducing the need to download and re-upload files between systems and helping ensure that digital experiences use current approved media. It also supports Aprimo search and metadata capabilities within the workflow.

How It Works

The extension functions through a QuickConnect browser window that acts as a portal to Aprimo DAM. A designer launches the extension, authenticates with Aprimo, and browses or searches for approved assets. Once an asset is selected, options for copying the public CDN URL or HTML code are available, along with options for modifying the format and adding campaign parameters. The selected link can then be pasted into the Salesforce CMS content record, maintaining a direct connection to the source asset for delivery and governance. 

Key Capabilities

  • Approved Asset Library: Search and navigate the Aprimo DAM repository for approved assets.
  • Metadata-Driven Discovery: Locate specific media using Aprimo taxonomy, tags, and search filters.
  • Automated Version Integrity: Help ensure digital experiences feature the current approved asset version.
  • Performance-Ready Delivery: Work with assets optimized for web and mobile channels.
  • Compliance Safeguards: Limit asset selection to approved Aprimo content.

Common Use Cases

  • Populating Salesforce CMS-driven sites with approved imagery from the central DAM.
  • Updating promotional banners by swapping assets through the extension selector.
  • Supporting collaboration between creative teams in Aprimo and digital producers in Salesforce.
  • Maintaining brand consistency across regional Salesforce CMS instances.
