Beta status

Canvas Dashboards is currently in a closed beta testing phase, and is therefore subject to frequent changes. See below for instructions on how to enroll in the beta.

Participate in the beta

IMPORTANT
Canvas Dashboards is currently in closed beta, and is therefore only available to specific organizations. We continue to directly invite organizations to the beta from a waitlist of those that have expressed interest. You can add your organization to the waitlist by submitting this Adobe feedback program form. Additionally, organizations that have purchased Workfront Planning as part of their package have been given beta access in order to test cross-product reporting capabilities.
Eventually we will transition to an open beta, at which point the enrollment process will become available to all organizations.
