I am using trial version of Adobe pdf connector for merging PDFs, This action has Preview lable, what does Preview stands for? In future will there be any change in this action, if yes, what may be the impact even after having subscription?

Correct answer Raymond Camden

Ok, official answer here I'm taking from my coworker Ben: 

 

"Preview" is a tag placed on connectors that are often new within Microsoft Power Automate. Adobe PDF Services connector was launched in early 2021. The Preview tag is not considered a badge of "beta" or reflection of the reliability of the service.

 

End of quote, and sorry for missing the PA connection in your original question.

Thanks @Raymond Camden .

 

To add to that point, it is not a reflection of the reliability or the changing of those connectors. Adobe and Microsoft has a very strong partnership and Adobe is dedicated to offering connectors across Adobe PDF Services, Adobe Sign, and Adobe Creative Cloud.

 

For Adobe PDF Services connector, the actions that are available in Power Automate are 1:1 aligned with the services that are available within our Adobe PDF Services APIs. Typical changes are usually additional actions/features rather than changes that would impact your flows. Power Automate connectors have versioning controls as best practice to ensure you don't have a disruption of service when add additional enhancements to our connectors (https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/connectors/custom-connectors/operational-versioning).

I am mostly sure this is just a case of the doc not being updated. 99% sure. I'll confirm, but if you don't hear back, just consider it safe to use.

Shoot, I'm sorry, I thought you were sharing a screenshot from the REST API docs. I missed that this was in PowerAutomate. Let me get back to you.
