Adobe I/O Events

Adobe I/O Events provides an event-driven webhook infrastructure for subscribing to changes across Adobe services. Developers register webhook endpoints to receive real-time HTTP POST notifications when events occur, such as Creative Cloud Libraries asset updates, Photoshop API job completions, or Experience Cloud data changes. Webhook payloads include an x-adobe-signature header for authenticity verification.

Adobe I/O Events is one of 24 APIs that Adobe Creative Cloud publishes on the APIs.io network, described by an AsyncAPI event-driven specification.

Tagged areas include Event-Driven, Events, Notifications, Real-Time, and Webhooks. The published artifact set on APIs.io includes API documentation, a GitHub repository, and an AsyncAPI specification.

This event API exposes 4 operations across 4 channels, and defines 6 schemas. It is described by AsyncAPI 2.6.0, at version 1.0.

The API connects through 2 servers: {webhookUrl} (https), https://events-va6.adobe.io (https).
