Adobe Creative Cloud + Asana

What is Adobe Creative Cloud?

Adobe Creative Cloud is a collection of creative apps, like Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign, and more, that gives beginners and pros alike the design tools to bring their ideas to life.

Ways to use Asana for Adobe Creative Cloud

Creative teams do their best work when they can focus on designing. With the Asana for Adobe Creative Cloud integration, creative and design teams can easily access the information they need to kick off work, get feedback from reviewers and approvers, and deliver final assets—all without leaving Photoshop, Illustrator, or InDesign.

From Creative Cloud apps, you can:

• See all the tasks assigned to you in Asana so you know what design work to prioritize.
• Access task information like the description, due date, and custom field settings.
• Attach files to Asana tasks without leaving Photoshop, Illustrator, or InDesign.
• View and incorporate feedback delivered in Asana without switching tools.
• Use Rules to automatically trigger actions on Asana tasks created from Adobe based on custom fields and projects. Learn more about Rules.
