Connecter Suite API:
Little Code, Huge Workflow Improvements
Connect your asset library directly to your studio pipelines. The Connecter API allows you to write simple scripts that hook Connecter Suite into your everyday design applications and project trackers, turning manual steps into automatic background processes.
Infinite Ways to Expand Your Workspace
The API is not a rigid or locked system. While it requires some basic scripting to set up, any capable technical artist, pipeline developer, or visualization manager can quickly connect Connecter to external tools. Once you establish the initial bridge, the possibilities for customizing your studio workflow are endless. You gain total control over how your files, database, and project tools interact.
Automation Examples
See how production teams connect their creative pipelines directly to external tools and project management systems.
Automated Render Farm Pipelines
The Setup: A designer finishes a 3D scene and updates the native Workflow status to "Ready for Rendering".
The API Automation: Your custom script detects the status change and automatically dispatches the asset file to an external render farm. Once the rendering completes, the API attaches the final output image as a Custom Preview in the Connecter gallery and switches the Workflow status to "Complete".
The Benefit: Artists never have to manually track render progress, move heavy files across networks, or manually upload preview images.
Automated Project Management Updates
The Setup: In Connecter, a user updates a custom property named "Finalized" to "Yes" and enters a "Finish Date".
The API Automation: The API logs the change and triggers a script that instantly creates a brand new card on your studio Trello board (or any other project management system). The script automatically applies a "Finalized" label, writes a confirmation comment, and mentions every team member involved in the project card.
The Benefit: Eliminates double data entry completely. Your project management boards update themselves based on actual asset modifications inside the library.
Designed for Script Writers
The infrastructure is built to be clean and straightforward, giving your team full control over the asset database without complex network overhead.
Standard HTTP Communication
No proprietary network architecture is required. Scripts send structured JSON message blocks via POST requests to a single secure listener address configured on your machine or network.
Live Workspace Events
You can configure continuous listening channels over HTTP or TCP to trigger your scripts the exact second a folder is added, a tag is changed, or an asset is modified.
Native Undo Safety Log
Test scripts with confidence. Most operations executed through the API is safely recorded in Connecterβs local Undo History panel, letting your team manually step back through database updates sequentially if a script needs adjustment.
Official Python Library
Skip the boilerplate setup code. We provide a ready-to-use Python package to help your technical artists start building custom workflow tools immediately.
Proven in Active Studio Production
"The Connecter API helps us integrate Connecter more deeply into our custom pipeline, from automations, tagging and publishing workflows to vector search. Weβve managed to reduce time spent on manual tasks by 90%."
