Taopix 2016r2 includes two powerful new additions to the Taopix API library, giving licensees the ability to introduce single sign-on authentication and create a seamless integration with an external image library. The software was announced at drupa 2016 (31 May – 10 June, Messe Dusseldorf).
Â
The addition of single sign-on functionality into the Taopix External Customer Account API, opens the door for licensees to create a seamless user experience that only requires users to sign into their website (or other online application), automatically authenticating against the Taopix system. This is a very exciting enhancement for businesses who have an existing user database in an e-commerce platform or asset management system.
Â
Taopix is also announcing an important enhancement to its Library Link API. Licensees who have an external image library can now give their end-users the ability to select pictures in an external library before transferring them, with one click, into a new photobook or photo gift project in the Taopix Online Designer.
Â
Taopix CEO, James Gray commented, ‘These additions create some really exciting opportunities for our licensees, in particular those businesses who already have user-authentication built into another website or online application. Creating a frictionless user experience is hugely important to conversion, and we’re putting great effort into ensuring our licensees can maintain that, regardless of their existing technology.’
