What's Changed
[Approvals] Export Approval Data to CSV
Approval data can now be exported directly from the Approvals table tabs as a CSV file.
Previously, users could only review this information within HIVO. With the new Export CSV option, approval data can be easily downloaded and worked with outside the platform.
This makes it easier to review, filter, organise, and share approval information, or keep a copy of the Approval table data for further reference.
🔹 How to export:
Go to Approvals → select the relevant tab → click the Export CSV icon.
👉 Note: Your ability to view and export data from each Approval tab depends on your permissions for the corresponding Approval type. You can only export data from Approval tabs that you have permission to access. For more information about Approval permissions, see the Approvals guide.
[New Feature] Uploader - Clickable Links in Metadata Field Descriptions
Metadata field descriptions in the Uploader can now include clickable links, making it easier to provide users with additional instructions, reference materials, or supporting resources while they are completing metadata.
🔹 For example:
If a Metadata field requires users to follow a specific naming convention, select information based on an external reference, or read additional guidance, a URL can be added directly to the field description.
Users can simply click the link to open the relevant resource in a new tab without interrupting their upload.
🔹 Configure a link:
Client Admins can add or update the URL in the Metadata field description from Metadata Settings.
Once configured, the URL will automatically appear as a clickable link in the corresponding Metadata description when users complete metadata in the Uploader.
[New Feature] Create Products with Metadata from Product Selectors
We’ve enhanced Product creation from Product selectors, allowing users to create more complete Product records directly within their current workflow.
🔹 What’s new?
This is an Additional Feature and must be enabled option "Include creation form for Add Product" in Client Features Settings by a Super Admin or HIVO Admin.
Once enabled:
When users type a new ID in a Product selector, HIVO opens the full Product creation form, including configured metadata, instead of adding the ID directly.
The two existing Metadata sections are now combined into a single one, providing a simpler and more consistent experience when entering Product information.
🔹 Why is this useful?
Users can capture Product metadata at the time of creation, helping reduce additional steps, improve data consistency, and simplify the Product creation experience.
Available from Product selectors in Asset Uploader, Asset Detail, Library Actions, Asset Approvals, and Collections – Related Products.
Track Asset History from HIVO Connectors
We’ve enhanced Asset History to capture asset usage from integrated software connected through HIVO Connectors.
🔹 What’s new?
When an asset is downloaded or embedded into supported third-party applications via a HIVO Connector, the activity is now automatically recorded in the asset’s History.
This includes integrations such as Adobe tools, Figma, Canva, Microsoft Word, and PowerPoint.
This provides a more complete view of where and how assets are being used, including activity that happens outside HIVO. It helps teams improve asset usage tracking, reporting, and auditing across connected applications.
👉 Note: To view the Asset History report:
Go to Report -> select view History
Only users with a “Can View Reports Page" permission to access Reporting page.
