A review link is a web page your client opens without an account. It shows the scenes you published, with the finished animation, in every format you shipped. The client approves each ad or sends it back with a note, and the note shows up on that scene in Wildfield. There is no PDF to export and no file to attach to an email.
This page covers publishing to the link, what the client sees, how feedback comes back, and how linked scenes appear. It is for designers and account managers who send work out for sign-off.
#Feedback and approval
What the client sees
The review page opens with the client's logo (or the design system's name) and a switch for each published aspect ratio, such as 9:16 or 1:1. Each ad is a card with its status badge (Pending, Approved or Denied). Animations play muted and loop, with Play and Sound on buttons.
Clicking a preview opens it at 100%, with zoom, Fit, and drag to pan, so the client can check small print at real size. The Copy switch in the header adds each ad's details under it: size, duration, the date it was submitted, who submitted it, and the post copy for the ad platforms.
Approve or refine
A pending card has two buttons:
- Approve signs it off in one click.
- Refine opens a comment box: "What needs refining?". A comment is required, then Confirm refine sends it.
Each card takes one decision. Once it is approved or sent back, the buttons go and the card shows its badge, with the comment under a refined card. To ask again, make the change and Sync a new round.
Where the notes arrive
In Wildfield, select the scene and open its Notes fold. The Inbound feedback list shows each decision for that scene: Approved, Needs changes or Pending, with the date and the client's comment. Review links are anonymous, so a note carries no name. A dot on the Notes header marks feedback you have not dealt with, and the fold opens by itself. There are no email alerts, so check the Notes fold after you send a round.
When you have dealt with a note, press the tick beside it. It moves under Resolved, where it stays as history; press the tick again to reopen it. Once every note is ticked, the dot goes away.
To see every note at once, press the Feedback button (the speech bubble) in the share controls of the Canvas overview toolbar, between the share-by-email button and Sync. A number on it counts the client's decisions you have not ticked yet: Approved and Needs changes. Pending cards, which every Sync creates, are listed but not counted.
The panel groups the notes by scene, in the order of your project, newest first, with the open notes on top and Resolved (n) below. The tick here is the same as in the Notes fold: tick a note in either place and both update. Press a scene's name or Go to scene to open that scene in the editor. Notes for scenes you have since deleted, and notes on the whole timeline, are listed under Other. The project must be saved first, since the link belongs to a saved project. Press Escape or click outside the panel to close it.
Worked example
- The client opens the link, switches to 9:16, and approves two of the three scenes.
- On the third they press Refine and type "Make the price bigger and move it above the product."
- You select that scene, see Needs changes with the comment in Notes, enlarge the price and press Sync.
Ideas
- Ask the client to use one Refine note per scene with a single clear change, so each round closes fast.
- Open a card at 100% before you send the link to check the legal line is readable at real size.
- Turn on Copy on the review page so the client signs off the post text and the creative together.
#Linked scenes
Scenes linked into one family (States of one ad, or scenes joined with the keyframe link) are one ad to the client, so the review page treats them as one.
- The family's first scene is the card the client sees. Its video is one render of the whole family, start to finish, as the ad will play.
- The other scenes in the family are stills, hidden until the client turns on Show linked scenes. Each card has its own switch, and the one in the header opens every family at once.
- When nothing on the page is linked, the switch is greyed out.
Use a family for variations of one ad, or for the beats of a single reel told from the same angle. The client approves the ad as a whole from the first card, and can open the family to see each beat as a still.
If a card says to "Sync this project again", it was published before families were grouped; one Sync fixes it.
Ideas
- Link three product States into one ad so the client watches the full sequence as one video, not three fragments.
- Leave Show linked scenes off when you send a round, so the client judges the motion before the individual frames.
#Metrics
The Metrics switch in the review page header (and the same switch on the Canvas toolbar) shows a Performance block under each piece: budget, spend, impressions, clicks, click-through rate and cost per click, with the day of the run.
These numbers are demo data. The block is labelled "Demo data, not connected", and it shows the same example figures on every ad. It is not connected to an ad account, and the review page does not record who opened the link or which scenes they viewed. Use it to show a client where live results will sit next to the creative, not as a report.
A linked family gets one block on its first card, since the whole family is one ad with one budget.
Ideas
- Use the demo block in a pitch to show how creative and results will sit side by side once a campaign runs.
