Mediagraph can be integrated with Adobe Creative Cloud apps using LinkrUI, a connector plugin by Santa Cruz Software. LinkrUI allows you to search, filter, access, and view the metadata of all the assets in your Mediagraph account directly in your Adobe software. Save time by finding what you need, adding it directly to Adobe, and updating it in Mediagraph without ever having to download a copy.

LinkrUI for Adobe Creative Cloud works with InDesign, Photoshop and Illustrator. A premium license must be purchased to use Premiere Pro and After Effects. Contact us for more information. Follow the steps below to download and set up LinkrUI for Adobe Creative Cloud.

After installation is complete, consult our documentation to learn how to Use LinkrUI with Adobe Creative Cloud.
