Bynder Meeting update: next thursday's meeting
by Bryan Teague 31 Oct '25

31 Oct '25

Hi all, You have probably already seen the update to the Bynder meeting next week. I have requested that we push the meeting back due to issues on Bynder’s side with the asset migration. I will continue to check in with the Bynder team on our migration. But we will not resume the Bynder meetings until we have had at least 1 fully successful asset migration. Unless folks request it, I will not be doing the meeting juggle and shifting the Bynder migration internal meeting (normally held on Friday) to Thursday. Please let me know if you have any questions. Thanks, Bryan Bryan Teague Senior Web Administrator, Library and Web Services Information Technology Services Maher Hall 196 5998 Alcalá Park San Diego, CA 92110-2492 Work: 619.260.7842 Cell: 619.321.7288 bryant(a)sandiego.edu <mailto:bryant@sandiego.edu>

Bynder migrate: Update and question about meeting today
by Bryan Teague 30 Oct '25

30 Oct '25

Morning all, I checked with Christina at Bynder about our migration to find out what was taking so long. This is what she said: > We attempted to complete the migration on Friday, but we're encountering some unexpected behavior with the tool that is preventing it from kicking off or completing. Our developers are investigating this issue. Additionally, there are several migrations happening concurrently, which is also contributing to the delay. > > We expect to hear back from the development team with an update by the end of this week. It's not my favorite answer, but we cannot guarantee a specific resolution timeline at this moment. > Unless anyone wants / needs to touch base about the migration, etc, do we need to hold the meeting this week? If you have topics for discussion, please send them to me. Otherwise I will send a message later to cancel today’s meeting.

Hi all, Now that we are getting closer to restarting the Bynder meetings with Bynder (don’t worry, meetings don’t restart with them till Nov 6), I wanted to let everyone know that we have assembled an Admin team. This team will consist of: Marina Woods Anna Garretson Rachel Chu Bryan Teague Marina and I will be serving as the primary admins for the Bynder system. Anna and Rachel will be “light admins” (contributor level 5). Marina and I will be the primary admins. I will be primarily focused on user accounts and technology (the who and the what) disk space user account provisioning / department assignment ensuring we have growth capability for ‘contributor’ accounts I usually try to keep a few reserved contributor accounts (2-3) to allow for future requests Maintain / update the DAM governance document Marina will be primarily responsible for Taxonomy and tagging (the how and the where) Taxonomy review addition deletion tagging What needs to move to taxonomy What needs to be consolidated Ensuring governance documentation is being followed. Maintain / update the DAM governance document Rachel Chu and Anna Garretson join the admin team as “light admins” (contributor level 5). Their responsibilities include: To help build consensus on Admin issues that arise Please note that for school related issues, we will ask for input / advice from the marketing manager / director for that school Act in a backup capacity (if capable, depending on the ACLs for "light admins”) enacting changes to the taxonomy / tagging as identified by Marina helping with user account provisioning / department assignment Maintain / update the DAM governance document A huge thank you goes to Marina, Anna and Rachel for stepping up! As always, while this is an important project, you are our most important assets. Don’t let yourself be overworked or overwhelmed by this migration. But please let me know if you need help with your migration. We can review options to ensure that your assets still get migrated. Thank you all!

Bynder Update: discussion mailing list for us to use
by Bryan Teague 23 Oct '25

23 Oct '25

Hi all, After way to many weeks of digging through my email to build the to list for emails on Bynder, it finally dawned on me that we have a tool for this. I have created the bynder-migrate(a)lists.sandiego.edu <mailto:bynder-migrate@lists.sandiego.edu> mailing list for us to more easily communicate. Anyone can send a message to this list and be confident it will reach everyone that is part of the Bynder migration project. Thanks!
