Get Started with Veeva Vault PromoMats and Adobe Experience Manager integration
This integration will manage your content, enforcing rights and compliance while also leveraging first in class experience delivery.
This integration requires the following minimum software versions:
- Adobe Experience Manager, 6.5.5+
- Veeva Vault PromoMats, 20R3.2+
Principles and Features
This integration is designed to support two main use cases:
- Content Approval - When new content has been created or existing content has been edited in AEM, the content must be approved for use in VVPM supporting the Medical, Legal, Regulatory (MLR) Approval process for Life Sciences.
- Content Management - Provide visibility of asset utilization by establishing relationships in PromoMats between digital tactics (e.g. email, presentations, websites) and their elements (e.g. logos, photography, graphics) created in AEM for documents originating in AEM.
The benefits include:
- Maintaining a single source of truth for assets and content without duplication across digital repositories.
- Leveraging both Veeva Vault for rights and compliance management and AEM for best in class and asset and content creation/delivery.
- Helps automate moving content and metadata between AEM and Veeva Vault.
- Reduces manual effort in sending content to Veeva for Approval workflows.
- Each system is used for its strengths and the connector assists in moving content automatically between the systems to help speed up time to market.
What does the integration do?

- Supports manual and automated syncing of select metadata elements that are configurable from AEM to VVPM.

What does the connector NOT do?
