Problem Alignment

The Problem/Opportunity

Describe the problem (or opportunity) you’re trying to solve. Why is it important to our users and our business? What insights are you operating on? And if relevant, what problems are you not intending to solve?

We’re going to solve for two, maybe three use cases here:

Ability to upload videos and images to a Media Library.

Ability to use the media with validations in the compose page from the media library

One of the largest challenges our customers on the Publishing platform face today is the ability to upload content with video to share across their social channels which are connected to the platform.

Background

Supply any background information necessary for the problem/opportunity

Users have requested the need to upload videos to their social networks.

Currently as a quick fix we have allowed users to upload Videos in compose which takes time to process.

Opportunity

Describe the opportunity that lies ahead of us should we decide to build this product. What do we gain? What’s your first guess as to how we can achieve it?

A designated place to upload images and videos

Admins should be able to view all media in their Institution

In the next version adding the ability to edit an image

High-level Approach

Describe briefly the approach you’re taking to solve this problem. This should be enough for the reader to imagine possible solution directions and get a very rough sense of the scope of this project. (e.g., if “The Problem” was engagement in the design process from non-designers, “The Approach” might be a feed which surfaces work that's relevant to them.)

Under Publishing-> Content Library →Media Library Tab: The user should have the ability to upload media (images and videos). They should have the ability to name and sort the media. Similar to content library posts, users should be able to click submit on media post which would navigate to compose page with media attached.

In Compose: The user should be able to select the image or video from the media manager to post to the social network with validations for the particular network supports.

Affected?

How?

Admin Alice

⁠

⁠

Admin Alice is responsible for sourcing content,

Compliance Charlie

⁠

Link

⁠

Compliance Charlie is likely to have to review more Media posts since his marketing team will likely be using these more often now.

Producer Pat

Not yet created. This is the role of the loan officer or insurance agent. They have the ability to log in to the Social platform to build and publish posts on their own behalf, and optionally automatically route them through an approval group. Alternatively they have the ability to use content from within a content library without routing through an approval group.

Producer Pat has more options for Media to pick from since it was so much easier for Admin Alice to supply Producer Pat with the Media.
