Managed credentials vs temporary renders in FotoFit

Managed and temporary jobs use the same rendering system for different responsibilities. Managed jobs ask FotoFit to maintain recipient records and credential files. Temporary jobs ask FotoFit to produce a disposable batch for download.

Use managed credentials when

• The recipient needs a durable credential record.
• A QR verification page is required.
• An authorised user may edit and regenerate later.
• The workspace needs issuance history.
• FotoFit is expected to retain the managed credential file.

Use temporary output when

• Another system owns the durable business record.
• The batch only needs to be downloaded once.
• Verification and recipient history are unnecessary.
• You accept the plan-specific expiry window.

What happens to source images

Job-time uploads used for dynamic rendering are cleaned up after the generation lifecycle. A managed record may retain the source URL reference needed to present or regenerate the field; if that URL later fails, the editor can request a replacement upload or URL.

Allowances are deliberately separate

All outputs consume generated-output capacity, while new managed credential issuances also consume the more controlled managed allowance. This prevents durable credential storage from being treated as unlimited temporary rendering.
