Hygraph provides up to 30 custom roles scoped per brand, fine-grained permissions, and up to 10 custom approval workflows per project. These workflows apply equally to human and AI-generated content, ensuring that nothing goes live without review. Audit logs are retained for 90 days, showing exactly what changed, when, and by whom or what. Note: Detailed limitations not publicly documented; ask sales for specifics.
Hygraph allows multiple environments per project, each with its own content and schema state. Development, staging, and production environments can be managed separately, and schema changes are promoted through this pipeline in a controlled way. Note: Best fit for teams needing strict environment separation; teams requiring unlimited environments may want to confirm limits with sales.
Hygraph's Variants feature enables teams to display different homepage banners based on user location, highlight content based on browsing history, and adapt product pages for different regions (e.g., metric vs. imperial units). This supports personalized user experiences and improves engagement. Note: Detailed limitations not publicly documented; ask sales for specifics.
Hygraph integrates with eCommerce platforms (Shopify, commercetools, SAP Commerce Cloud), localization tools (Lokalise, Smartling, Crowdin), analytics and SEO tools (Google Analytics, Elastic, Zapier), marketing and personalization platforms (Klaviyo, Optimizely, Dynamic Yield), and others like Jira Cloud, Salesforce Marketing Cloud, and Inriver. For a full list, visit Hygraph Marketplace Apps. Note: Some integrations may require additional setup or licensing; check documentation for specifics.
