Have your customers selected their favorites from their private gallery? You can export their favorite file names as a .CSV list and send them directly to Adobe Lightroom.
This will help speed up your editing process. With the batch list process, you can organize the file name immediately with the files you have imported in Lightroom, versus searching for each file.
This guide will walk you through the steps to find your customer favorites and export a .CSV file.
How To Export Client Galleries Favorites to Adobe Lightroom
Important Note: PhotoBiz is not affiliated with Lightroom or Adobe. Our Web Consultants can help with your Proofing activity and advising where to find your CSV and file names. Specific questions about Lightroom and other functions of Adobe will need to be answered by Adobe. Here's a link to their help section.
STEP ONE
Log into your PhotoBiz account and access the Client Galleries section.
STEP TWO
Access Client Galleries ACTIVITY
Go to the Client Galleries tool, then select “activity” in the top menu and select the customer profile you would like to interact with. You will see all the files they have favorited.
STEP THREE
Export Your Client Activity
Click the Export tab. You can choose to export the .CSV file with or without the file extension (ie. JPG, or PNG), or copy the file name directly from the list section.
STEP FOUR
Open Lightroom and Import Your Client Favorites
With Lightroom, you can copy the content of the .CSV file or copy the file names directly from PhotoBiz’s file list section, then paste in the Lightroom search bar. This will give you all the images in a search result with commas and allow you see all the files favorited in that client’s gallery.
STEP FIVE
How to find your files in Lightroom
- Select where files are stored
- In the first drop down menu select filename
- In the second drop down menu select contains
