UGC Request Template

Updated 

Request Template helps you to customize your Request Approval page that is sent to the Asset account owner. The Request Approval page is sent as a link, which has the permission request for you to share the user content based on the user's approval. Once approved, you can use the asset for all your future publishing needs. For the social media channels that do not support the hyperlink, such as Instagram, the approval can be received by requesting the user to use a unique hashtag.

The link is sent as a shortened URL to the Approver. Currently, this feature is available with Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram. 

Note:

When you click Request Approval, the request template with the highest match score is selected. For example, if you are requesting approval for a Twitter asset from a BumbleBee account then the request template with the Channel field Twitter and Account field BumbleBee gets selected.
