We’re excited to introduce Content Workflows, a new feature designed to help content teams ensure tighter governance, transparency, and efficiency to their content creation and approval processes.
Content Finder (Beta) helps you find any content in seconds across models and locales so you can stop digging and save time. Just hit CMD+K and jump straight to what you need.
Scattered tags and inconsistent categories make content hard to manage. With Taxonomies, you can classify content using shared, hierarchical tags that bring order, consistency, and speed as projects grow.
