Questions about Photoshop API integration with AEM Assets and advanced PSD manipulation

[Wilnaweb1]

Hello community,

I am currently exploring the use of the Photoshop API and I have a few questions regarding its capabilities and possible integrations:

1. Integration with AEM Assets

   • Can the Photoshop API directly access a file stored in AEM Assets for processing, or is it required to make the file available through a public URL or store it in a storage service such as S3, Azure, or Dropbox before processing?

2. Editing PSD files

   • Is it possible to perform multiple edits on the same PSD file (for example: text replacement, updating Smart Object images, applying adjustments) and only save/export the final result at the end?

   • Or does each change require a full cycle: download PSD → modification → upload again → new request for the next change?

3. Exporting with multiple artboards

   • Does the API allow exporting multiple images (e.g., JPGs) in a single request, based on the different artboards within the same PSD file?

I’d like to clarify these points to better evaluate the architecture for integrating AEM with the Photoshop API in an automation workflow.

Thanks in advance for any guidance or references!
