Enable support for modern package managers (Yarn or PNPM) in the Frontend Deployment Pipeline of Cloud ManagerInvestigating

Request for Feature Enhancement (RFE) Summary: lease enable support for modern package managers in the Frontend Deployment Pipeline. Currently the pipeline only supports NPM, which although widely adopted is also generally known as the slowest solution for package management within the nodejs ecosystem. Consider support for yarn or pnpm, both of which outperform NPM from a CI/CD perspective. Use-case: We currently use Yarn on Managed Services to deploy full stack code. However, when migrating to Cloud Services and wanting to take advantage of the Front End (FED) pipeline, NPM is assumed and only the version can be altered via pipeline variables. We use Yarn as it has additional features and builds/deploys faster than NPM. Similarly, pnmp and Yarn PnP deploy about twice as fast as npm in our benchmark tests. Current/Experienced Behavior: Customers must use NPM and package-lock.json as the deployment package manager Improved/Expected Behavior: Customers can customize the FED deployment pipline to usee the package manager of their choice. This could be either an explicit selection, a pipeline variable, or the pipeline could lockfile detection (npm uses package-lock.json, yarn uses yarn.lock, pnpm uses pnpm-lock.yaml) Environment Details (AEM version/service pack, any other specifics if applicable): This request is for AEM Cloud Service, current version. Customer-name/Organization name: Toyota Motors North America (TMNA) Screenshot (if applicable)     Code package (if applicable):

Better planned hours management in new Priorities viewNew

The new Priorities view has really caught on with our team. The GUI is attractive and the recent release brings a lot of functionality that helps the team have a singular place to go in order to manage work assigned to them. But it could be perfect! Please add the same "edit allocations" functionality as is available in the Workload Balancer (within the Resource Management section) that allows a user to specify planned hours for a task on a day-to-day, week-to-week, or month-to-month basis. Currently, the Priorities view only allows a user to change the total planned hours of a task over the entire duration of the task.The ability for a working team member to specify the exact amount of hours they will spend on the remainder of a task gives managers a more specific view from week to week. We do not have access restrictions of the Workload Balancer on our team and have found it very useful to use during our meetings when discussing what will be worked on during a given week and each member has the autonomy to update the planned hours for all tasks that are either in progress or about to start. This granularity that the Workload Balancer provides would make the Priorities view the ONLY view that a team would need in order to make quick, simple changes without having to jump to a different part of Workfront. Perhaps the Log Time pop-up (image attached) could be used to enter in allocations? Thanks!

Proofing Tool - PDF OutputNew

Description - The Print Summary PDF download within Workfront’s Proofing tool creates a flat image of the proof with any comments and markups, and is used if the marked up proof needs to be circulated outside of the proofing tool itself. The reason the originally uploaded pdf with any markups made in the proofing tool needs to be extracted from Workfront, rather than viewed in the tool itself by the agencies making amends as a result of these mark ups, is the agencies often use other Adobe products and comparison tools which contain scripted (coded) elements to compare the original pdf to the marked up pdf, and amend original files where possible in a more automated way. Given Workfront is an Adobe product, it would be preferable to have a high quality Adobe PDF output which is compatible with other Adobe products to ensure consistency and ease of use. The rasterising of the marked up proof and addition of wide margins / summary page changes the structure of the file so much from the original that it makes it impossible to be run through scripting tools when comparing to the original document / pdf. Why is this feature important to you - Having integrated Workfront into the organisation, we now have major issues in our in-house agency being able to use the system fully in the way we intended them to, i.e. collaborating with comms teams via the system, being able to download a marked up PDF once this has gone through the system, and then re-upload the amended document. We’d also like the agency to be able to use their comparison tools and quality check tools in order to negate risk in sending customer communications out incorrectly, and keep their working processes as automated as possible. How would you like the feature to work - If a pdf is uploaded as a document to Workfront, then made into a proof, then circulated to reviewers & approvers for comment, we would like these comments to be applied to the original pdf as if they had been made by the reviewer in Adobe Acrobat or Reader, and make these comments available on the (original) downloaded pdf, without changing the way the original file looks or inflating the filesize (the print summary PDF screenshot / rasterization process can inflate the filesize by upwards of 20x). Ultimately we need multiple reviewers to be able to comment / collaborate / review one file in a similar way to how several users can on a shared PDF in document cloud, but from within the WF application and also allowing them the ability to record an approval decision. Current Behaviour - As it stands, the proofing tool produces a flat image file containing mark ups. Our agencies cannot work with this in terms of using it in their comparison tool and quality checking tools. The PDF print summary therefore cannot be used due to it not being the original Adobe PDF. As such, users now have to use a workaround process in which they go offline and mark up the original PDF to send to the agency, even though they use the proofing tool for reviewer comment and approval.

When the Project Owner sets a task status from Complete Pending Approval to New or In Progress, clear assigned user(s) complete checkmarkNew

Description - When a project owner is reviewing a project and find a task marked as Complete Pending Approval and review to find the task needs to have more work done on it, but they are not one of the approvers, when they change the status of the task to either In Progress or New, the user assigned to the task gets no notification and the task does not show on their My Work.  This is because the assigned user still has the checkmark of complete on the task.  This makes the project owner take additional steps of having to tag the assigned person to let them know they have to click the "not done yet" or unassign the person and reassign them to the task.  Why is this feature important to you - This causes confusion for the project owner and if they forget to tag the assigned user or do the unassign reassign steps the task will be delayed.  How would you like the feature to work - When the status of a task is changed from Complete or Complete Pending Approval to either New or In Progress the "done" indication for the assigned user should be removed and the task should appear on their My Work.  Current Behavior - When a user marks a task as "work on it" then completes the task, it marks them as "done" and adds a Checkmark next to their icon that shows they are assigned to the task. If the task is then moved back to in progress by someone else, the checkmark remains and since the user completed what they needed to do.

Allow views to be targeted in form based activitiesNew

Description -Currently to target a triggerView() call, widely used in SPAs you have to use the VEC. This can be very cumbersome and the VEC is not always supported by user's website setups, making it difficult or impossible to build activities with triggerView. Ideally we would be able to select view names in the Location dropdown of a form based activity so that we can target views without having to manually reach them in the VEC. This would also be useful for tests which span multiple locations and cover both mboxes and views. Why is this feature important to you - A large part of my website is a React SPA, in order to build tests for some components I have to go through my entire SPA which can take upwards of ten minutes to trigger the view I want to target. I only use target as a code delivery tool rather than using the VEC, so form based activities are much more suitable, but can't be used at the moment with views. Also, the VEC is fairly unreliable and often breaks my site so that I can't progress to the view in the first place, making it impossible to test certain components which massively increases frustration and decreases usability.How would you like the feature to work - In form based activities when you add a location, simply add user's view names to the Location dropdown as well as mboxes. Then a user can target both or either of mboxes and views in a single form based activity while avoiding the VEC.Current Behaviour - Users have to use the visual editor to target views, which is clunky, unreliable, and adds frustration as the user is required to manually trigger the view through the VEC window even if they are not making an edit in the visual editor. Form based activities can only target mboxes.

Allow Machine to Machine OAuth App credentials to establish Fusion Workfront Module ConnectionsNew

Description - Currently, you need a username and password with System Administration access to Workfront in order to create a connection to Workfront. Would like to use an OAuth machine to machine app credentials. Why is this feature important to you - Most IT security offices we work with are reluctant or refuse to create a service account with username and password that isn't tied to an individual person as it's a security risk.  How would you like the feature to work - Able to use either the Workfront OAuth Application (Workfront -> Setup) client ID/secret to create a connection, or create a Project (in developer.adobe.com) using Workfront API to generate client ID/secret, and use that in Workfront Modules to create a connection as outlined in this article https://experienceleague.adobe.com/en/docs/workfront-fusion/using/references/apps-and-their-modules/adobe-connectors/workfront-modules. Current Behaviour - When trying to do the following steps to use the advanced settings in the Fusion Workfront Module , we get an error and were told by Adobe Support that it's 'working as expected'1. Can create a OAuth App in Workfront (machine to machine - https://experienceleague.adobe.com/en/docs/workfront/using/administration-and-setup/configure-integrations/manage-custom-oauth2-apps)2. Can NOT use the Client ID and Secret to make a new Connection in a Fusion Workfront Module (https://experienceleague.adobe.com/en/docs/workfront-fusion/using/references/apps-and-their-modules/adobe-connectors/workfront-modules). ERROR after you enter the information into the connection details and click "Continue", after the Oauth window pops up, and after you enter the Workfront instance that reads "https://app.workfrontfusion.com/oauth/cb/workfront-workfront is not allowed"

Enable Custom Placement of Document-Level Approval Field in WorkfrontNew

Description:Our organization relies heavily on Workfront for document collaboration and approval workflows. One consistent limitation we've encountered is the inability to reposition the system-defined document-level approval field within the document panel. While custom forms can be layered above this field, the approval section itself remains fixed in place, which restricts layout flexibility and user experience optimization.Why is this feature important to you:I’ve observed that the fixed placement of the approval field often leads to confusion—especially when custom forms are used to capture additional metadata or context. This limitation impacts usability, and reduces the ability to tailor Workfront to our internal workflows. Allowing repositioning would improve clarity, streamline processes, and enhance alignment with team-specific needs.How would you like the feature to work:We propose that the document-level approval field be made configurable within layout templates—similar to how custom form fields can be arranged. Administrators should be able to drag and drop the approval field to a preferred location within the document view, allowing for better integration with custom forms and other workflow elements.Current Behavior:The document-level approval field is currently fixed in its placement and cannot be moved. It always appears in the same location within the document panel, regardless of layout template or custom form configuration. This limits flexibility and can lead to a disjointed user experience when additional fields are added above it.

Front or back loading planned hoursNew

Description - It would be ideal if you were to specify, at project template level, that planned hours can be front or rear loaded (in addition to being spread evenly across the task duration) when assigned to a user. Why is this feature important to you - This would help our project managers to schedule resource more accurately, it will allow them to schedule tasks on the same day, get get the most for the available resource on a granular level. The assignees would also benefit, they can concentrate on one task at a time, moving onto the next once the fist has finished. How would you like the feature to work - If a task has a two day duration and 8 planned hours and is assigned to a user who has a capacity of 7 hours per day, WF would allocate 7 hours in day 1 and 1 hour in day two. The task would be set to start at 9am and finish at 5pm which is inline with our default schedule. If the assignee has 2 hours available on day 1 and 7 available in day 2, the task would be spread accordingly, 2 and 6 hours. If an assignee has less than the required amount of capacity across the 2 day duration, an error message should be displayed when trying to assign the task or they are not available to assign when selecting. (similar to the plane icon when they are on leave during the task duration.  If the assignee has a different schedule, eg they start at 11am, the task will schedule to start at that time rather than 9am, the same would be done if the assignee has a task finishing at 3pm on day 1. Current Behaviour - Currently the above is a manually process and has to be adjusted on each task as WF distributes the planned hours evenly across the duration days.
