Workfront

Hello, I would like to download the binary of a document via the API to get a blob object. Is this somehow possible? I cannot find the corresponding information using the API-explorer.I know, that I can retrieve the field downloadURL, but using this requires to be logged in to Workfront. Thanks in advance. RegardsLars

Can a Planning record type be connected directly to specific tasks within a Project object?

Hi! What are the impacts of turning in the Workfront AI Assistant, and signing the AI agreement, on other Adobe tools? For example, if we sign the agreement and turn on Workfront AI, does the AI functionality in other tools also turn on? What other AI functionalities exist across Adobe products, and do they connect to Workfront's AI Assistant?

Has anyone created a Fusion scenario to use salesforce stage change to create workfront project that automatically enters in the start and stop dates based on the products added to the opportunity? 

Hosted in partnership with Ewan Hruska @ewanhof Field Engineering and Brian Haight of Professional Services, this session walked through 5 different tips you can leverage for automating naming conventions using Workfront Fusion: Tip 1: Establish consistent, long-term naming schemes avoiding frequent changes across related objects. Tip 2: Use unique identifiers (project reference numbers or custom incremental numbers) in naming conventions. Tip 3: Drive naming conventions through request form fields like business unit and region dropdowns. Tip 4: Limit total project name length using Workfront validation rules to prevent character overflow. Tip 5: Balance human readability with AI discoverability by starting names with most useful identifiers. Watch the on-demand recording HERE, download a copy of the slide deck HERE, and check out the .zip file with the Fusion JSON files HERE.  Fusion takes time and practice to learn, so if you're just getting started,

I have a Proof Approval report set up, and it has columns that show key information like Approver Decision, and the Decision Date, but I'm wondering if there's a way to pull in something like proof has notes/comments, comments exist = true/false, etc. Reason being is that we often have reviewer/approvers who will leave comments but forget to make a decision, thus the proof will sit there until the project owner manually reviews.  Is such a column possible? I've played around with several text mode options and for the life of me cannot figure out to achieve this. Any input is greatly appreciated!

We have a Kanban Board, which is configured to automatically intake items to the board.Intake sources is a custom filter, which includesProject: Status > Is None of > Complete Dead Queue The board populated correctly, with a card in New for project PN1762400.Since then, the project status for PN1762400 has been changed to Dead.The connected card is still showing in the New column. Can/should cards be automatically removed in this situation?

Does anyone know whatever happened to the Campaign Object beta from 2022? https://solutionpartners.adobe.com/solution-partners/news/2022/08/the-adobe-workfront-campaigns-beta---get-involved-.html Was that ever pushed live or was it put on hold? Any update is helpful.

Dear All, I’m working on digitizing our product specifications (currently managed offline) and I’m testing custom forms to see what can replace our existing workflow. One key part is that I’m trying to centralize raw material characteristics and similar data within specific project/s, then have the custom forms elsewhere to pull in that data dynamically when required.  I’ve built the following TEST setup, and it’s very close to what I need but it still has a few issues. Project 1 contains a form consisting of a Single line text field “Product Code”.  Users enter “Product Code” value manually, for example 12345ABCDE Project 2 contains a form consisting of:Typeahead field “Project Name v1” returning Project 1 among other projects within the same portfolio/programExternal lookup field “Project Name v2” returning Project 1 among other projects within the same portfolio/programExternal lookup fields returning “Product Code” value based on project selected

Hi All, I seem to recall that typeahead fields used to display as Clickable link / Hyperlink to the referenced object on the custom form, similar to how they appear in reports. It looks like this behaviour has been removed or changed. I was trying to find some information about this in the documentation and release notes, but couldn’t locate anything. Could someone refresh my memory on this? Kind regards,Lukasz

 Created a task report, filtering and grouping by Home Team ID. However, the groupings are showing as a random string of numbers and letters. Any way to pull in the actual Home Team ID so we know which drop down is which?

For email intake to a request queue:If there is formatting in the body of the email it's being lost when it loads to Workfront. I tested bold, italic and underline and the text all loaded as regular text. Is this the expected behaviour as the body of the email becomes the description which doesn't allow formatted text?  Is there any way around this?

I have a task report that I'm pulling in hours of a specific hour type.  I can get them as a list and it works correctly - but I would also like this same information to be shown as a total rather than in a list.  Can someone assist with the text mode for this calculation?displayname=Template Count listdelimiter=<br/> listmethod=nested(hours).lists type=iterate valueexpression=if({hourType}.{name}="Template Count",{hours}) valueformat=HTML  

Has anyone noticed that Workfront no longer saves a comment you've started? For example, if you're typing a comment and navigate to another link within the project, the text doesn't remain in the commend field like it used to.

Hello, In the screen shot below I am parsing json to separate values from a typehead field. When trying to put the @ symbol in front of the username it does not tag the user in Workfront updates section but simply an @ symbol which does not tag the user in the regular highlighted blue format. Is there a way to @ the user correctly in the updates section because the result is not rendering and tagging the person in my update. Please refer to second screen shot of how it is appearing. I appreciate all the help in advance

We have in-project requests for extra resource to be added to the project. Once approved, the new task template is added. The task template has a folder structure attached to it which matched all the other tasks in the workflow. However, when adding the new template task, it seems to duplicate the folder structure at project level aswell.Is there a way to not have the folders duplicated at project level and why does it so this?

Hey there, Part of the proofing process is our team verifying that the bookmark/layer names on the PDF are correct. However, you cannot see the bookmark names unless you download the file which unfortunately defeats the purpose of us using the viewer and also comparing files side-by-side. Could this be something that get added in the future? 

Has anyone successfully created a scenario that attaches multiple docs to one email?  I have been working on a scenario to be able to attach multiple files from one folder to an email but am running into a roadblock. I have been experimenting with the iterator, aggregator and variable modules. When I test, the email will only attach one document but I can see in the aggregator that it did create 1 bundle with all files found in the folder. I am not sure if I am missing something in my setup with the email attachment setup. Also, I am new to using the iterator, aggregator and variables so maybe I am not setting up something correctly. For context, I need to be able to attach docs to the email as we have users on our email distro that are not in Workfront and we do not need them to be. Thank you for any help in advance.  Current scenario set up:  Aggregator result: Email Result: only will bring in 1 file as an input instead of multiple fi

Hello, I have calculated fields in my request form to capture the name of the person who put in the request and their home team. When this form was setup in implementation, we put a "Requestor Team Override" field that is visible to admins only, in the event we need to update the requestor team. I would like to also add a "Requestor Override" be able to also override the Original Requestor name, but I'm not quite sure what the code would look like to do that. Here is the calculation for the Requestor Team field:IF(ISBLANK({DE:Requestor Team Override:name}),IF(ISBLANK({convertedOpTaskOriginator}),{owner}.{homeTeam}.{name},{convertedOpTaskOriginator}.{homeTeam}.{name}),{DE:Requestor Team Override:name}) Calculation for the Requestor Team Override is a Typeahead field, with reference object type set to "Team" The calculation for the "Original Requestor" field is:{convertedOpTaskOriginator}.{name} Any ideas on how to create an admin only field that overrides this "

Hi,  We are nearing our storage limit in Workfront and I've been spending time clearing out documents and various other bits to reduce the risk of actually hitting the limit and then being unable to upload new docs. Ideally we don't want to get to the point of needing to pay for additional storage. We use AEM Assets linked to Workfront so this should be used for storing nearly everything (except for Proofs which we do through Workfront), but users haven't been great at this in the past so we are working through moving files saved in Workfront to AEM to help free up some space. I wondered if anyone with experience in this area might have any tips that could help? Below are some questions I've had, if anyone can help clarify these?When I delete documents, I'm always 30 days behind as files are stored here for 30 days until permanently deleted. I've seen a couple of 'ideas' posted on Experience League which I have 'liked', asking for an option to permanently delete things m

I am trying to map an array variable to the Planning Module but no matter what I do, I get an error "Array of objects expected in parameter 'F6914a6c02f21335b7b794d35'." I have tried to just have the ID numbers, the "id: xxxxxxx" and plenty of other things to get this to work but I don't know what it wants and I can not find any documentation on Planning Module specifics.  When I put the variables in one at a time in the without mapping, it works (but I will never know the set amount of objects so I need the array). If anyone has any ideas, I would appreciate it. My Variable Expression:The Variable Output:Planning Module Input: Error:     

Hi all, I tried searching for an answer and have done extensive testing, but have not yet arrived at a solution. Is there a way in the Microsoft 365 calendar module to set the parameter so when an event is created, it creates an all day event in your home calendar? I have been exploring the configuration/parameters in the module but have not seen a way to do this. Thank you for your help, Nick

  Hi folks,   While updating them mechanics of our Executive Status Report solution, I hit the age-old question of whether the computer (i.e. Workfront) or the human (i.e. the PM) should decide what to report as the official project condition, with -- for context -- condition in this case referring generically to "How is it going?" (e.g. Green / Yellow / Red). Thinking that the situation could vary across organizations (or even between departments, or even among department projects, or even over time), I decided to allow for both, but am also interested to hear whether there's a clear majority these days.   In your organization, who sets the official project condition: Workfront (automatically), or the PM (manually)?   Regards, Doug   cc: note to self @doug_den_hoed__atappstore    [edited to simplify]
