What is Shaman Hub for Visual Components?

Shaman Hub is available for each of our content builders, allowing the sharing of content from a global to local level, or a local to local level in a matter of clicks!

In this article we will take a closer look at how you can search for visual content in Shaman Hub, how you can save it to your local list of visual content to personalize and very importantly - how you can share your best visual content to Shaman Hub to inspire your colleagues and contribute to the overall success of your organization!


Where can I find Shaman Hub for Visual components?

After logging into Shaman, click “Visuals” in your builder dashboard.

From the Visual builder overview, click the “Shaman Hub” tab.

Good to know!

Your hub name is unique to your organization, so in your account you will see “your organization name - Hub”.

When you arrive at your hub page, you will see some search filters on the left hand side, a list of content that has already been shared on your hub, as well as a search bar at the top of your screen to type keywords to help you find the right content for you. Let's take a closer look.

You can find the following search filters on the left:

  • Source: Global and local - You can choose to search for content that has been created at a global, or local level by clicking to select the corresponding filter.

  • Brand: Perhaps you are working on a specific brand team, and would like to find content relating to this specific brand. If so, this is the search filter for you.

  • Original language: you can search for content which has been created in your local language or in other languages.

  • Country: you can search for content created by a specific country using this filter.

  • Type: You can use the filters “Email visual”, “Banner”, etc to find a specific type of visual content

Good to know!

If you do not see a value in the list of filters, eg. a brand or a country, it is most likely that content for this brand or country has not yet been shared on the hub, but don´t hesitate to contact your Shaman Customer Success Manager or the Shaman Support Team (support@getshaman.com) for more information.

  • Search bar at the top: Simply start typing any keywords to find relevant visual content.

  • List of content shared on the hub: Here you can see all content currently available on your hub, sorted based on relevancy. Let’s take a look at the information you can see in this email overview.

  1. Title: The title of the visual component

  2. Local or Global: Whether it has been created at a global or local level.

  3. Summary: An AI generated summary of the contents of the visual content (in English)

  4. Created by: The name and franchise of the colleague who created this content

  5. Likes: How many people have “liked” the visual content

  6. Duplicates: How many people have duplicated the content to their local work area

  7. Date added: The date the content was added

  8. Expiry date: The date this content will expire (in Shaman Hub)


How does it work?

To take a closer look at a visual component presented in the Hub for visual builder overview, simply click anywhere within the visual component details shown.

You will be redirected to a page where you can preview the visual content and review the details before duplicating it.

On the right hand side you will see a “Duplicate visual component” section. If you like what you see in the preview, you can complete the details in the “Update details and duplicate to your account” section.

  • Account: Select the account where you wish to copy this visual content to.

  • Name: Add a new name or title to your visual content

  • Brand: You can choose to keep the inherited brand assigned to your visual content, or you can click “Update” to change it to a different brand.

  • Language: Select the language you wish to use in your visual content. If it´s different from the language in the original content, don´t worry we´ve got you! Shaman will automatically translate this to the language you have selected.

Once you have set these details, click “Duplicate”.

You will be redirected to the visual component overview page which you are likely to be very familiar with by now. Click “Design” to start personalizing the visual content you have copied.

Once in the Design section, you can start adding new elements to the visual component or update the existing content as you wish.

Good to know!

As part of the Brand design system implemented by Shaman, any new content elements added by you will inherit your brand identity colours, fonts and padding requirements.

If you select another language in the duplication step, Shaman will automatically translate the Visual component to the selected language, using AI translation. Make sure that the translation result is reviewed carefully.

If you have any doubts and want to check the original text, simply click “Show original visual component”.

How can I contribute to Shaman Hub?

Sharing your visual content on Shaman Hub could not be easier.

Once you are ready to export your content to the Shaman visual library, you just need to select the "Export" tab of the Visual component.

At the top of your export options, you will see the following criteria that you can select to share with your colleagues, based on:

  • Brand: You can choose to only share with colleagues working with the same brand as you

  • Countries: You can choose to only share content with specific countries

  • Therapeutic Area: You can choose to only share content with users working in similar therapeutic area to you, for example: Neurology, Cardiology, etc.

  • And importantly: “Share with other users” toggle. This needs to be enabled to share content with your colleagues.

If you do not want to share your visual content to Shaman Hub, be sure to deactivate this toggle to prevent your visual component from being shared.

On clicking export, your content will also be shared to your Shaman Hub.
