.heycreo Format

The .heycreo format is a proprietary file format of the heycreo platform. It is an encrypted archive that contains templates with all their associated assets, providing a portable, self-contained package for template distribution and backup.

Purpose

The .heycreo format enables template portability by bundling templates with all their assets (images, fonts, configurations) in a single encrypted file. This allows templates to be backed up, shared between organizations, or migrated between environments while maintaining security through encryption.

Contents

  • Template structure: The complete template definition following the Template Format specification
  • Images: All image assets referenced in the template
  • Fonts: Custom font files and Google Fonts configurations used in the template
