We're so excited to announce that the Adobe Express Embed SDK v4 is now publicly available. There are a number of breaking changes as we've changed the way the SDK is initialized and broken each workflow (full editor, quick actions, and modules) into individual classes. Each class contains method names that are more verbose and should simplify the way developers use our SDK. Read our changelog here.   What's new in v4?  👉 Callback functions are specified in the initialize API. More verbose, intent-driven method names across the board.  👉 Modules are contextual, mini-editing experiences that you can surface to your users. The modules available at this time are text to image and image editing. Text to template and other modules are on the way. 👉 Delayed login is now available. 👉 Additional export options are available -- have more control over how the user continues editing in the full Adobe Express editor.    Get started 👉 Quickstart guide 👉 Sample   When should I migrate by?  We do not plan on deprecating v3 of the SDK anytime soon so if you are already using v3, your team can plan the migration at your own pace. Using v4 brings new editing experiences, performance benefits, and the latest of Adobe Express to your users! If you are using v1 or v2 of the SDK, please move over to v4 as soon as possible. Both of those versions are no longer maintained and will be deprecated soon.
