Bulks export proofs with images, markups/comments

Hi Nick, 

i did some checking re this, please see/ try below. 

Fusion can automate this, but it is a per-proof PDF-summary request orchestrated in a loop—not a single native bulk-export endpoint.
 

Use the Workfront Proof connector in Fusion:

1. Search/List proofs

   • Retrieve the proofs to export.
   • Capture each proof’s unique Proof ID.
   • Paginate the search results rather than attempting to process thousands in a single operation.

2. Iterate through the proof IDs

   • Add an Iterator or process the returned proof bundles one at a time.

3. Add Workfront Proof > Request PDF Summary

   • Proof ID: Map the current proof ID.
   • Callback URL: Use a Fusion custom webhook URL.

   The Request PDF Summary action is designed for one proof at a time and accepts both a proof ID and a callback URL. Workfront Proof modules

4. Receive the callback

   • Configure the webhook to receive the completed PDF summary information.
   • Store the proof ID together with the callback response.
   • If the response contains a downloadable file URL, use HTTP > Get a file and then save it to SharePoint, OneDrive, S3, or another destination.

5. Add logging and error handling

   • Record Proof ID, proof name, request status, callback status, file location, and any error message.
   • Retry failed requests separately.
   • Use controlled concurrency or batching instead of submitting thousands of requests simultaneously.

6. Important limitations

7. Do not use Download Proof for this requirement. That module downloads the source file used to create the proof; it does not generate the comments-and-markups PDF.

8. Downloading a Proof in the proofing viewer

9. The PDF export is documented for static files only. Validate the proof types before starting the bulk job.
10. If a comment has multiple markups, it can appear multiple times in the exported comment list—once for each markup.
11. If you need only structured comment data rather than a rendered PDF, the Workfront Proof connector can also read proof comments. That will not, by itself, render the proof images with visible markups.
