DeSL - FileSpin Integration and Automation

Common Integration Use Cases Between DeSL and FileSpin

• Product asset synchronization for style development
  Direction: DeSL - FileSpin
  DeSL product records can automatically push approved images, sketches, tech packs, and reference files into FileSpin for centralized asset storage and controlled access. This helps design, merchandising, and sourcing teams work from the same approved visual content without manually uploading files across systems.
• Link digital assets to PLM style and SKU records
  Direction: FileSpin - DeSL
  FileSpin can send asset URLs, metadata, and version references back to DeSL so each style, colorway, or SKU record is connected to the correct image or document. This improves traceability during product reviews, sample approvals, and line planning.
• Automated version control for design and sample files
  Direction: Bi-directional
  When a new file version is uploaded in FileSpin, the updated asset can be reflected in DeSL with the latest version status and approval state. This reduces the risk of teams using outdated artwork, packaging, or sample images during development and sign-off.
• Workflow-driven approval of product imagery
  Direction: DeSL - FileSpin
  DeSL approval workflows can trigger the publication of final approved product visuals to FileSpin for downstream use by eCommerce, marketing, and retail teams. This ensures only validated assets are distributed outside the product development process.
• Supplier collaboration on visual and technical files
  Direction: Bi-directional
  DeSL can share supplier-facing documents such as tech packs, measurement sheets, and artwork references to FileSpin for secure external access. Suppliers can then upload revised files, comments, or supporting documents back into FileSpin, which sync back to DeSL for review and approval.
• Centralized asset access for cross-functional teams
  Direction: DeSL - FileSpin
  As product milestones are reached in DeSL, related assets can be published to FileSpin for use by merchandising, sales, and marketing teams. This creates a single source of truth for approved content while keeping PLM data and creative assets aligned.
• Audit-ready product documentation package creation
  Direction: Bi-directional
  DeSL can assemble product development records, while FileSpin stores the associated visual and document files needed for audits, compliance reviews, or internal governance. Together, they provide a complete package of product data and supporting evidence for faster issue resolution and better traceability.
