API-triggered campaigns: In addition to existing scheduled campaigns, you can now create API-triggered campaigns in Journey Optimizer and invoke them from an external system using APIs. Data Access Control: Through attribute-based access control, administrators can control access to specific objects based on certain attributes.

Starting this release, administrators can also define user roles that have access to only specific fields and/or objects, and data that correspond to those fields and/or objects. Data Governance and Privacy: With its Data Usage Labelling and Enforcement (DULE) governance framework, Journey Optimizer can now leverage Adobe Experience Platform governance policies to prevent sensitive fields from being exported to third-party systems through custom actions.  Automated Consent Enforcement (Consent Policies): Adobe Experience Platform allows you to easily adopt and enforce marketing policies to respect the consent preferences of your customers. Consent policies are defined in Adobe Experience Platform. In Journey Optimizer, you can apply these consent policies to your custom actions.  Permission Management: Journey Optimizer supports defining user roles and access policies to manage permissions for features and objects. Alerting and Monitoring: As a Journey Optimizer user, you can now access system alerts through the user interface to get notified when journeys don't work as expected.   Find the detailed release information here: Latest Release   Feel free to reach out in case you have any questions and/or feedback through the below comment section.

The System Admin Maintenance Dashboard is the new release of the Workfront Cleanup Dashboard and it’s now available in Blueprints. It is purpose-built to optimize one of the Adobe Workfront System Administrators’ necessary but tedious jobs: cleaning up.     A few things to note:   The reports on the dashboard have been built to support the needs of a wide audience and it’s likely that you will need to change report settings and configuration to better meet your organization’s specific needs. This is especially the case when it comes to filtering on status or date/time. In some cases, where you’d expect to see a status-based filter, we may have omitted them entirely.   You may not need all the reports in your environment, so feel free to remove them.  Finally, we recommend making copies of these reports before editing in case you want to go back to the original report.    Learn how to install this dashboard from Blueprints    Reports Included in the System Admin Maintenance Dashboard:    Projects in Portfolios by Status   Summary: Display the projects within each portfolio and their statuses, grouped by portfolio and those statuses. We suggest deactivating portfolios that have no projects in statuses equating with planning or current.  Projects in Programs by Status   Summary: Display the projects within each program and their statuses, grouped by program and those statuses. We suggest deactivating programs that have no projects in statuses equating with planning or current.  Project Audit   Summary: This report should highlight missing attributes on templates that enable a PM to create projects faster. Attributes such as - Custom Form(s), Resource Pool, Resource Manager(s), Milestone Path, etc.  Projects 100% Complete but NOT in Complete Status   Summary: Identify projects that should potentially be marked complete and are not. To help ensure users are not distracted by excess work data on their dashboards, old projects should be completed or deleted.  Number of Projects by Template   Summary: This can be useful to determine projects with no template or templates with low usage that could potentially be deleted or archived.  Projects in the “No Value” column were created without using a template which may present a governance problem.  Note that this report only captures the first template applied.  Projects 0% Complete - Not Updated in 3 Months   Summary: Identify projects that should potentially be completed or canceled and are not. To help ensure users are not distracted by excess work data on their dashboards, old projects should be completed, deleted, or canceled.  Projects in Planning Status - Not Updated in One Year   Summary: Identify projects in a planning status that may be abandoned. To help ensure users are not distracted by excess work data on their dashboards, old projects should be completed, deleted, or canceled.  Any Active Project Custom Forms No Longer In Use   Summary: The action needed for this report is to review the list and determine if each project custom form should be deactivated.   Search Projects Associated with Custom Forms   Summary: Display how many projects have been created, grouped by their Custom Form. This can be useful to determine projects with no custom forms or forms with low usage that could potentially be deleted or archived.  Note:  Projects can have multiple custom forms attached.  Groupings will be based on the first custom form attached to the project.  Template Audit   Summary: This report should highlight missing attributes on templates that enable a PM to create templates faster. Attributes such as - Custom Form(s), Schedule, Resource Pool, Resource Manager(s), Document Folder Structure, Milestone Path, Project Approvals, etc.  Request Queue Issues by Queue Topic   Summary: Displays how many issues / requests have been created in the system to date, grouped by their Queue Topic. This can be useful to determine old / unused queue topics that may need to be cleaned up / removed.  Abandoned Request Queues  Summary: This report shows requests queues that have not received requests in the last 6 months.   Overdue Tasks not Updated in 1+ Weeks   Summary: Identify tasks that should be marked complete and are not. To help ensure users are not distracted by excess work data on their dashboards, old tasks should be completed or deleted.  Feel free to add a filter for Portfolio, Group, or Company to narrow results.  Usage of Task Constraints   Summary: This will give a sense of how schedulers are using Task Constraints.  Unregistered Users (Have Not Logged In)   Summary: This report can be used to identify users that can potentially be deactivated in the system.  Active User Audit   Summary: This report should highlight missing attributes on User Profiles.  Users & Associated Layout Templates   Summary: This report highlights users that do not have a Layout Template, as well as Layout Templates that may be incorrectly assigned based on the user's license type, role, home group, or home team.  Note: Some Layout Templates may be applied using Roles, Groups, Teams, or Companies rather than assigned directly to users.  Pending Document Approvals by Request Date   Summary: This report will find all Document Approvals that are pending an approval. This report can be used to delete approvals no longer needed. Additionally it may reveal an overall problem with the approval process.   Outstanding Proof Approvals Older Than Three Months   Summary: A list report of pending task approvals.   Unused Custom Fields Report – For System Admin Use Only  Summary: This report shows which custom fields are not being used in any Custom Forms and could potentially be deleted. 

Thank you all who allocated time to take the survey posted below. Since we didn't have a clear winner as a result of the first survey, we would like to do a second round of with only 2 versions. We have also considered the feedback you have provided about the survey itself. We would really appreciate if you pass this survey as well.    ***Earlier post*** We are currently making some changes on how we display system updates in Workfront update stream and we would really like to get your feedback on some of the UI changes we consider doing. In this 3 minute survey you will see slightly differing versions of UI for the system updates (activity) and will need to choose the one you think is the best.   Thank you in advance for your time!   Anna Asatryan, Product Manager, Adobe Workfront.

Hi all, We're working on the new Workfront Home and would like to get your feedback through an unmoderated usability test. The session should take about 15 minutes and must be completed on your desktop. Additionally, the experience has no data so you will see blanks where there would be data. This is to test the general flow rather than place any emphasis on any single feature. The link below will show you how to record your screen and voice so we can see and hear your experience. It's important to think aloud. Tell us why you're doing what you're doing, what you're expecting, and what you think about it. Don't be shy—we want to hear your thoughts! Click the "Get started" link when you have the time and are in a quiet, distraction-free place. Once you've clicked the link, be sure to get started within 30 minutes or the session will expire. You can take as much time as you need to complete the recording. Follow this link to the session: Get started Or copy and paste the URL below into your internet browser:https://app.usertesting.com/pp/d9cb6236-7755-4fae-83bd-a74bc37988bb If you run into an issue email support@usertesting.com with Invite Network in the subject line.
