WordPress Library Sync Integration

WordPress is an open-source content management system for creating blogs, websites, and other content.

With the WordPress integration, you can synchronize the assets in your Bynder DAM to the WordPress Media Library and publish your photos, images, and any other brand asset from your Bynder DAM account directly to your WordPress websites.

This feature/solution requires your Customer Success Contact to enable, but then individual permissions can be done by the Bynder Admin.

Who can set up and manage integrations?

• Portal Settings

Important Information

Before setting up the integration, please ensure the following is set up:
