Accounts, Projects, and Workspaces

All Account Access

All Frame V4 accounts—not just those managed via the Adobe Admin Console—can create tokens and access the V4 API. Customers and partners can test, build, and refine their workflows using our newest API features.

1

Create User Authentication Token

Visit Adobe developer console to create a user authentication token. The user must use the same Adobe ID as their Frame login to validate API token access.

2

Create API Credentials

Once you have access to the APIs, the next step is to create API credentials, or an API token, to communicate with Frame. Create your API credentials at developer.adobe.com.

Account Access

All V4 accounts, whether Frame-managed (V4F) or Adobe-managed (V4A) have access to create a Project in the Adobe Developer Console, and then create credentials. Once you have a set of credentials (OAuth Client ID/Client Secret), you can integrate with the Adobe Developer Platform’s three-legged OAuth flow. Sign in to your Adobe Identity to receive a valid auth and refresh token to make requests to the Frame.io V4 Developer API!

Projects and Workspaces

Workspace Updates

The Frame.io landing page is new and named the Workspace page. Users can browse Workspaces and Projects they have access to in an account. Thanks to this new design, it’s easier to see who belongs to a given Workspace and quickly invite new people.

In Frame V3 Workspaces were known as Teams.

Workspaces are set to Invite Only in V4, so users will only see Workspaces they have been explicitly invited to. Furthermore, there is no Team Directory page in account settings.

To manage permissions and related operations, use the Create, List, Delete, and Update Workspace endpoints.

Workspace Management Operations
  • List user roles for a given Workspace.
  • Remove a user from a given Workspace.
  • Update user roles for the given workspace if the user is already added to the workspace. If the user is not added to the workspace, the user will be added with the given role.

Project Updates

The Project creation flow has changed in V4. Now, when you start a new Project, you choose between a blank Project or a Project Template. There are twelve templates to choose from, designed for common creative workflows. You can also choose to include the template’s demo assets, or start with just the template structure. Choosing a Project Template immediately creates a new Project in your Workspace.

To manage permissions and related operations, use the Create, List, Delete, and Update Project endpoints.

Project Management Operations
  • List user roles for a given project.
  • Remove a user from a given project.
  • Update User Roles for the given project if the user is already added to the project. If the user is not added to the project, the user will be added with the given role.
