Adobe Workfront

Adobe Workfront is Adobe's enterprise work-management platform for marketing and creative operations — project and portfolio planning, request intake, task and resource management, proofing and approvals, timesheets, financial tracking and reporting — sold in Select, Prime and Ultimate packages. Its developer surface is unusually wide for a work-management vendor: a versioned REST core API at /attask/api (v22.0, 174 objects exposed through an anonymous object-metadata endpoint), the separately versioned Workfront Planning API published as first-party OpenAPI 3.0.1 and 3.1.0 documents on developer.adobe.com, an Event Subscription API that pushes object change events to customer webhook endpoints, a Document Webhooks API third-party document providers implement, and — since June 2026 — a hosted Model Context Protocol server at mcp.workfront.adobe.com exposing 87 documented tools behind OAuth 2.1, plus first-party agent Skills published in the adobe/skills repository.

Adobe Workfront publishes 2 APIs on the APIs.io network: Planning API v2 and Planning API v1. Tagged areas include Company, Work Management, Project Management, Marketing Operations, and Creative Operations.

The Adobe Workfront catalog on APIs.io includes 1 event-driven AsyncAPI specification.

Adobe Workfront’s developer surface includes documentation, API reference, getting-started guide, support, pricing, changelog, CLI, and 31 more developer resources.
