How long does it take to build?
Minutes to a first working version, not weeks — you test it against real data before it goes anywhere near production.
Why should we sync Flickr with our storage in Shade?
Automated syncing keeps your design files securely archived and accessible to non-design team members who rely on Shade to access shared media.
Can asset reviews in Flickr update permissions in Shade?
Yes, when a design in Flickr reaches a specific review stage, you can automatically share the corresponding storage folder in Shade with client stakeholders.
