Contents Management, Beta
2017 • Adobe • Experience Designer
Project Scope
As a part of building a new core contents management system, we planned to include an approval flow management feature
My Role
My UX design contribution to this project was to provide experience and interfaces for Approval flow management, tag management, sharing architecture and importing workflows. I have closely collaborated with the lead designer who created the Content Library framework.
Throughout the project, I was working with 2 product managers on 2 features. I teamed up with 2 engineers to the experience built properly.
Targeted User
As a team that should create marketing content to promote products and services, the users could manage content, and create workflows within the team. This product is for this type of collaboration which requires a large scale of team and marketing strategy.
Collaborate in Team
As a content management team, we could collaboratively work with content on our shared content library.

Import Contents
Users could source files from multiple 3rd party apps. Some files require logins, others require achieving rights to use.
1.Start the import from the import button.
4. Select files in-product dialog from the sourcing app.
2. Select an app to source files.
5. Select where to import selected files.
3. Log into the sourcing app.
6. Check the importing status in the library.
Import Flows
I provided a map to see comprehensive workflows for various sourcing apps.
Content Right Request
Contents managers should get rights for campaigns and marketing to use social/public content by public users.
The users request rights with templates and a few adjustments or start from scratch.

Next steps
The team has many priority items for the content management frameworks. Once the content library framework is ready, the related features like approval flow management and right request management will get implemented as a beta.
Retrospective
If I’m coming back to the project, I would focus more on user testing as much as I can by actively recruiting internal users or running on testing tools in order to validate our questions.
