Channels

Your API builder for pulling or pushing your content with structured data templates, creating one-to-many content channels.

Content anywhere

Channel outputs can generate fully functional static pages with lazy JavaScript hydration by placing content and media on a configured domain via FTP upload. Or a pre-installed progressive web application with server-side rendering on a domain can pull content and media through channel-provided API endpoints, in either case resulting in an ultra-fast webpage, frontend or landing page. Whatever you choose.

But channels can do so much more. Content can be transformed, fields can be mapped and formatted by defined rules and can thus ensure all professional format and classification output needed to share information from business to business.

The Channel Template Engine in combination with preflight tools can transform page-separated output into PDF-X-compliant printable PDFs, or web PDFs with internal links. Ideal for catalogues, manuals, price lists or product data sheets.

Predefined formats for raw output such as JSON and XML, or fully functional XML output such as NewsML, are included.

Channel content and format customisation is driven by the content element tools themselves, such as rich media relationships, multilingual content, text aggregation and prioritisation.

You can even prepare personalised channel output on the fly to generate personalised print documents tailored to the interests of each individual customer.
