Creative Cloud and Adobe Libraries

Hello,

I'm part of a team of creatives working for a business where we've been reliant on Creative Cloud files sync for a while now - even more so with work from home being popular amongst colleagues. 

We create a lot of new photographic and design assets all year round for marketing purposes - with the end of Creative Cloud Files looming we've almost decided to switch to Dropbox - but I can't help but feel Adobe Libraries should work for our needs but unless I'm missing something, it feels so restrictive.

Does anyone know of a way to bulk upload files to the Library system? In the region of 100k files need uploading - which cannot be done by some of the ways I've seen suggested. If we could easily get our files in the Library system to begin with, we would probably utilise it.

Drag and drop to a library panel works, but first check how to get them out of the libraries before you put lots of files in there.

As far as I can see you can only export them one by one.

Thanks, I have done this to some extent for testing - but it only works if I've created the folder already in the Library. For example, we have large folders of various print and digital projects broken down by year and it won't allow to drag and drop a folder of files, or a folder with subfolders across.

As far as I can see, to get everything over to Libraries would mean creating all folders manually and dropping the contents in afterwards.

Yes, dropping folders is not supported, would be a good feature request.

probably not, but navigating to your libraries using a browser would be the best wayto try.
