Blog content example

Dynamic Content integrates with Content Studio and Image Studio to help you create and refine content quickly.

This example demonstrates creating blog content, using Amplience Studios integrations to:

• Generate content with Content Studio, directly from Dynamic Content
• Edit images with Image Studio, including background replacement, blur effects, and subject repositioning, directly from Dynamic Content

Creating content with Dynamic Content

To create blogs and other types of content, ask your developers to set up the necessary content types.

Watch how it's done

This quick video demonstrates how to create blog content with Dynamic Content integrated with Amplience Studios.

Start the blog post

To start creating our blog content, we click "Create" in the content library.

For this example, we already have content types set up, and we'll choose the "Blog" content type.

To quickly find the content type you need...

Enter a search term to filter the list of content types.

The content authoring experience opens for us to add blog content.

Visualize how content will look

Notice, this blog content type has a real time visualization (the "eye" icon). Clicking this icon shows content as it is entered. Speak to your developers about setting up visualizations.

Below, we've added an image, title, snippet description and author. The visualization shows how the content will look when it's live:

Next we'll add more content to the blog post.

Adding the blog body text

The blog content type in this example has a rich text field and a content chooser for adding new and existing content:

The rich text field is configured for us to manually write content, use the AI Assistant for guided content creation, and generate complete, on-brand copy with Content Studio.

Generate with Content Studio

We can generate the blog post in just a few steps using Content Studio:

1. Launch Content Studio directly from the editor:

   

2. Within Content Studio, choose to generate a blog post:

   

3. Generate the blog post:

   

4. Saving the generated content in Content Studio, navigates back to Dynamic Content where the generated content is automatically included:

   

The generated content can be edited in Dynamic Content, for example, by adding images, links and formatting.

Expand the blog post

The content type in this example lets us other types of content to the blog post.

We can choose from a number of different types of existing content, or create completely new content. Here, we're going to reuse some existing content by adding it to the blog.

Our chosen content is added to the blog post.

The image in one of the cards isn't quite what we want, so next we'll edit it.

Edit images with Image Studio

If Image Studio is enabled on your account, you can use its AI capabilities to quickly edit images within your Dynamic Content authoring workflow.

How to know if Image Studio is enabled on your account

When Image Studio is enabled on your account, you’ll see an “Edit in Image Studio” icon for images that don't have any additional customization (as shown below). See How to get Image Studio.

For our blog post example, we’ll edit an image in linked content by opening the content, hovering over its image, and clicking “Edit in Image Studio”.

Image Studio opens in a new tab, ready to quickly adjust the existing image so it fits our vision - without the need for graphic designers.

First we'll replace the background. Image Studio also provides other ways to change image backgrounds.

the save button

Notice the "Save Image" button in the example above. This is shown because Image Studio was launched directly from Dynamic Content, allowing edits to be saved straight back to the content.

The new image background aligns better with what we want, and we've applied a light blur effect to blend the foreground and background for a more natural look.

Now our banner has a light blur, we'll resize the foreground slightly and move it to the right by clicking and dragging. See Resizing and repositioning images.

With just a few clicks and no special graphics skills, we now have an image that's more suitable.

Edits made in Image Studio are saved to a new file.

Does Image Studio overwrite images?

Image Studio always creates a new image (appending a number to its name for uniqueness) and gives you the option to enter a different image name.

When you navigate back to Dynamic Content, the new image is automatically loaded into your content.
