If you enable proof subscription at the proof level, reviewers can add themselves to the proof. Depending on the options selected during proof creation, those reviewers can comment and make decisions.

Available on: Business Legacy, Standard Pro Enterprise

Proof subscriptions let reviewers add themselves using a public URL link. Based on the settings you configure, subscribed reviewers can:

• Comment on a proof
• Submit a decision
• Be automatically assigned to a specific review stage 

Administrator settings

Administrators must configure the following settings to allow proof subscriptions across your account:

 

Enable proof subscriptions

1. Start creating a proof.
2. In the Security section, Access setting, choose who can subscribe to the proof. If you select the Users Only option, then guest reviewers cannot subscribe to proofs. See Proof Security settings.
3. Enable Proof subscriptions.
4. Choose what subscribers can do (comment, comment & make decisions).
   
5. Choose to which stage subscribers should be added:
   
   
   
   Reviewers can be added to the first stage, last stage, or a new subscriber's stage (Enterprise edition).

Share the public URL

If you create a proof with subscription permissions, proof owners and managers can share the public URL to let people subscribe.

1. Open the Proof Details page of the proof.
2. Select Copy link at the top of the page to copy the public URL.
3. Share the link.

When reviewers use the link, they’ll be able to open and interact with the proof, based on the permissions you configured.

Ziflow adds them to the appropriate stage, sends a subscription confirmation email, and adds their name to the Proof Details page.

Reviewers who open a proof with a public URL don't need to subscribe if they want to export comments to PDF or download the original proof files.

Ziflow users:

• Must sign in to add comments or decisions. They can sign in:

  • Before interacting with the proof

  • After leaving a comment or decision (Ziflow will prompt for sign-in).

Guest reviewers (no Ziflow account):

• After adding a comment or decision, guest reviewers will be asked to confirm their name and email address.
