This article explains how Templified delivers finished images: your design renders once, then Templified sends that render to one or more destinations. Understanding the pieces — destinations, presets, and the Send To panel — makes every other sending feature click into place.
Render once, deliver anywhere
When you send a design, Templified produces the finished image a single time and then delivers that same render to every place you've pointed it at. You never re-render per destination — one send can drop a JPEG into a Dropbox folder, notify your webhook, and queue a print all at once.
Destinations vs. presets
Two terms come up everywhere in sending, and they're worth keeping straight:
- Destination — a single delivery endpoint: a Dropbox folder, a webhook URL, or a connected partner service. A destination answers "where does the file go?"
- Preset — a named, reusable bundle of one or more destinations, like Print 8x10. Firing a preset renders the design once and fans it out to every destination attached to it.
You always send through a preset. Even a "just put it in Dropbox" workflow is a preset with a single Dropbox destination attached. Owners and admins create presets under Settings → Send-To Presets.
Where Send To lives
Sending is a Studio activity — it applies to designs (your working copies), not to templates:
- In the design editor, the right-hand panel has a Send To tab next to Properties. It lists your presets and the queue of staged sends.
- In Studio, the same panel appears as a collapsible Send To pane on the right edge, so you can stage and send designs without opening each one.
The template editor has no Send To tab. Templates are masters you design from — you send the designs made from them, not the template itself.
General-purpose vs. partner destinations
Two destination types are available to every organization:
- Dropbox — deliver renders into a Dropbox folder you choose, with file paths you can template per event and team.
- Webhook — push each finished render to a URL you control, so your own systems can pick it up.
Additional destinations — GFcrew and GFITpro Auto Print — are available to studios with a connected partner account. If your organization hasn't connected one, you won't see them as options, and everything in this section still works the same with Dropbox and Webhook.
Two ways to send
Day to day, sending happens in one of two rhythms:
- One at a time — open a design, pick a preset in the Send To tab, send.
- Staged in a queue — work through a shoot, stage each design to a preset as you go, then hit Send all once at the end. The queue persists until you fire it.
The queue workflow is the fastest way to handle event volume — see the queue article below for the full walkthrough.
