Someone still has to upload a gif. It does not have to be you
Hand a companion the outcome. It reads the Giphy gifs, does the 3-operation version of the job, and stops for your click on anything that changes a record.
Open the gif. Check it against something else. Write the change. Move to the next one. That is the Giphy afternoon nobody can hand off, and a companion does the whole pass and gives you back the batch, with nothing landing on a gif until you approve it.
What it can do is exactly what Giphy exposes to an account you authorise and nothing beyond it: 3 operations, 2 reads and 1 write. In practice that means it can upload an a gif, and work across the gifs, gifs/stickers and words.
The Giphy API stops at Giphy. A companion does not. The same run opens the customer's website, the supplier portal, the internal tool somebody built in 2019, because it is working the browser you are already signed into rather than calling in from outside it.
Does it read the gifs or ask you for them?
2 of the 3 operations are reads.
Your account, not a guess at it: a companion can translate a word to a gif/sticker and search gifs/stickers, and the full list below is the whole list, with nothing inferred from Giphy's documentation.
The gifs are what most of this inventory is about, alongside the gifs/stickers. A companion can hold all 3 of these operations and forty open tabs in the same pass, which is how an afternoon of Giphy admin becomes a queue you review.
- Translate a Word to a Gif/Sticker
- Search Gifs/Stickers
Can it change a gif without asking?
The one write operation there is waits for you.
A companion can upload an a gif, and each one is staged on an approval card first: you see the gif, the field and the new value before it lands in Giphy.
Nothing in Giphy is sent, changed or deleted on your behalf without that click, and a rejected card leaves the gif exactly as it was. The gate is the same one on every surface, described at security.
- Upload a Gif
Does the gif sweep have to be asked for every time?
Yes.
Saved as a routine, the Giphy gifs pass runs at the hour you pick: the Monday sweep, the overnight refresh, the Friday check. Keep Awake holds the machine awake for the length of a run, so a scheduled pass finishes with the lid closed.
The operations playbook catalogues the other recurring shapes of the documents, the Giphy gifs sweep among them, and finished runs are published at real runs.
