🤖 AI Agent is now in closed beta!

The Mudstack AI Agent is a new in-app creative assistant, now available in beta on request, designed to help artists work faster by reducing manual asset management and context switching.

Using natural language, artists can search, organize, rename, tag, and comment on assets, ask questions about Mudstack features and workflows, and get guidance on related tools like Unreal, Maya, Unity, and Photoshop all within Mudstack.

The Agent focuses on assistive, reviewable actions. The majority of actions the Agent can take happen locally so changes can be verified before pushing to your team.

Since this is in beta, some tools may not be immediately available, and behavior will evolve as we improve accuracy, coverage, and performance based on feedback from you and your teams.

🔗 External Link Sharing

Sharing with teams that don't have direct access to your Mudstack account has never been easier! This flow gives workspace admins the ability to send specific files or folders to designated emails for a limited time.

🧑‍🤝‍🧑 What are Teams?

Teams are a new and better way to manage large amounts of users as groups. These groups can have configurable access to workspaces, so you can fine tune a set of users access to multiple workspaces, or quickly give or remove access from large sets of content in a few clicks.

How do I migrate my account to teams?

In your Account Settings -> Members page, you'll see a new button, Enable Team Based Permissions.

Mudstack will migrate your current account and workspace roles to the new teams system. We'll automatically create teams based on workspaces & workspace access.

Once migrated, you'll see a new page in account settings called Teams where you can edit the newly created teams.

🕸️ Webhooks is now available!

You can now create and manage your own workspaces within the application. You manage your webhooks in the Workspace Settings -> Webhooks page.

To get started with Webhooks...

• Create your webhook in the app and provide us a destination URL & headers of where you would like the events to go.
• Filter specific events sent through the webhook.
• Configure your destination to accept the payloads and transform the data. You can use intermediary apps like Zapier, or internal automation tools, like Jira’s automation tool.
• You can combine a webhook with API calls in the automation tools to enrich the webhook payloads with more relevant data.
• Test and go live!

For more info on best practices and some examples for webhook uses, check out our documentation on how to get webhooks set up in your workspaces.

Send us a message if you want us to track any other events from Mudstack!

💽 Our MCP Server is live!

You can now use LLMs to talk with Mudstack's cloud API. The access is based on your user permissions. Our documentation has instructions on how to set this up with different LLMs.
