Question

Admin console "product profile" for auto update option not present

Hello,

i am trying to roll out adobe “creative cloud pro plus for teams” for my users.

The OS is windows 11 24H2.

I want to set the “auto update” option so the applications always stay on the latest version.

To enable the automatic update i need to configure the product profile, but no matter where i search, there is no product profile option in my admin console.
Are there different types of admin consoles for different adobe clients, or does that feature not work right now?

    Hi @batagrar,

     

    Thank you for reaching out, and we completely understand how important it is to keep Adobe apps consistently up to date when rolling out to your users.

     

    You've noticed that the product profile option isn't showing up in your Admin Console, and we would like to explain why. Product profiles and the self-service policies that include the Enforce Auto-Update setting are available only on Adobe Enterprise (ETLA) plans. Since you're on a Creative Cloud for Teams subscription, these options won't appear in your Admin Console. This is not a configuration issue on your end.

     

    For Creative Cloud for Teams, here are the options available for managing updates:

    1. Creative Cloud desktop app When users have the Creative Cloud desktop app installed, they are notified when new updates become available and prompted to install them. This keeps apps up to date without requiring admin intervention per machine.

    2. Packages via the Admin Console You can create and deploy updated packages through Admin Console > Packages. Both Self-Service and Managed package types are available, allowing you to control which versions are distributed to your machines. You can also use email notifications to be alerted when new product versions become available.

    Full details on both approaches are here: https://adobe.ly/42Us6Te

     

    If enforced, centralized update control is a firm requirement for your organization; that level of management is available through an Adobe Enterprise plan. We'd encourage you to speak with your Adobe account representative if that is worth exploring.

     

    Please don't hesitate to follow up here if you have any more questions, and we'll be happy to help.

     

    Thanks,
    ^BS
