Adobe Stock provides access to royalty-free stock images, photos, graphics, vectors, video footage, illustrations, templates, and 3d assets. The Adobe Stock integration automatically uploads licensed assets from your Adobe Stock account (or multiple accounts) to your Bynder DAM for a centralized asset management experience.
Contact your Customer Success Manager to learn more about enabling the Adobe Stock integration.
Caution
Adobe Stock for enterprise is required for this integration. You cannot add Adobe Stock to a JWT service account unless you are a Stock for an Enterprise customer.
Before configuring the integration in Bynder, you will need to generate a Service Account key pair and download an Adobe User Account or Profile credentials as a JSON file attributed to your key. It will require an admin or a user with developer access to Adobe Stock.

-
Click Add API.
-
Select Adobe Stock and click Next.
-
Select Service Account JWT.
Important

Next, select Generate a key pair. This will create a signed private/public key in a format suitable for Adobe's authentication.
-
Click on the button to generate key in the lower right corner. This will download a zip file containing the private key to your local machine. Save this file and keep it secure. You will need the key to set up the connection in Bynder.
Note
This key will expire after one year, at which time you will need to create a new pair for synchronization.
-
Click Next. On the following screen, select the Adobe User Account or Profile to attribute the key with.

Note
If you have multiple Adobe Stock users and want to synchronize assets by those individual users (but not the entire organization), you will need to set up additional connections for each of them. This will also require each of those users to have their own key pair and credentials generated in the Adobe Developer Console.
After configuration, all licensed images (and videos and vectors, if enabled) for the connected Adobe Stock account(s) will be uploaded to your Bynder DAM or Waiting Room after about 2 hours. Moving forward, any licensed asset will automatically be uploaded to Bynder roughly 2 hours after you license it.
If you delete an Adobe Stock asset from the Bynder DAM, it will not automatically be reuploaded to your Bynder DAM or Waiting Room. If you delete a Adobe Stock asset from your Adobe Stock account or if your license expires, it will not automatically be deleted from Bynder.

Settings > Advanced settings > Portal settings. -
