Welcome to Akeneo PIM 1.7! We’ve boosted team collaboration and PIM connectivity…

Akeneo Teamwork Assistant

We have always viewed PIM as a productivity tool. Its purpose is to centralize the product information and provide users with an easy platform for enriching, editing, and updating product information. By allowing employees throughout an organization to contribute and enrich product information based on their expertise, teams can significantly improve the quality of product information.
The Akeneo Teamwork Assistant is a collaboration tool that will improve how you work as a team. Users no longer have to waste their time guessing what products need to be enriched, the Teamwork Assistant handles it all.

This new feature allows you to create enrichment projects for your team and easily follow its progress. For example, let’s say you have a Summer collection that needs to be prepared for an upcoming web launch. You’re going to need to assign a variety of tasks to your team (marketing descriptions, pictures, translations, etc.) and make sure that the project gets completed on time. Simply select the products that need to be enriched or edited and Akeneo Teamwork Assistant will automatically assign the required tasks. No need to manually define who needs to do what or to build complex Gantt charts. The Akeneo Teamwork Assistant is here to streamline and simplify your collaboration!

Akeneo Web API

We know this has been a highly anticipated feature, and it is finally here! The new Akeneo web API is available for Enterprise and Community Editions of Akeneo PIM.

This comprehensive REST API enables interactions with your product catalog in both read and write mode. Building a connector on the top of the Akeneo platform is now easier than ever! No need to learn the Symfony framework or worry about performance: you can build your connector in any language and continue to benefit from the unparalleled scalability of the Akeneo platform.

Want to learn more about this brand new API: we built a new website just for Akeneo developers to document these new capabilities.
