Adobe Cloud Drive overview

Adobe Cloud Drive is a desktop application that mounts your Adobe cloud storage projects as a drive on your Mac or Windows computer. Workfront projects appear as folders, and you can open, create, edit, and save files directly to Workfront projects on Adobe cloud storage, using any desktop application.

The files in Adobe Cloud Drive are the same files you see in Workfront and Frame.io, so changes you make on your desktop are available in connected Workfront projects in both products.

What you can do with Adobe Cloud Drive

  • Access projects from Adobe cloud storage as folders in Finder (Mac) or File Explorer (Windows).
  • Open, create, and edit files in Adobe Creative Cloud apps, Microsoft Office, or any application installed on your computer.
  • Save changes locally and let Adobe Cloud Drive sync them to projects on Adobe cloud storage.
  • Mark files for offline access when you’re traveling or working without a network connection. When your connection is restored, the updates sync to the file in the project, and you can then remove the files from your local cache to free up disk space.
  • Collaborate with team members on the same project files.

Who can use Adobe Cloud Drive

To use Adobe Cloud Drive, your organization must be on the Workflow Ultimate package, with Adobe cloud storage enabled.

Only projects using Adobe cloud storage appear in the drive. Legacy Workfront projects don’t appear. For more information about the difference, see Differences between Adobe cloud storage and legacy Workfront storage.

If you don’t see Adobe Cloud Drive available for download, or if your organization manages application installs for you, contact your Workfront administrator.
