This thread is for Camera Raw & Lightroom Classic feedback on the (Early Access) Content Authenticity Initiative (CAI)
For the Lightroom Ecosystem feedback, click here

The Lightroom team is dedicated to building capabilities that foster trust and transparency in the age of AI. Our latest release, as part of the Content Authenticity Initiative (https://contentauthenticity.org/), allows you to add content credentials to your work when exporting in Lightroom to ensure provenance and preserve authenticity.

 

New content credential capabilities are available across the Lightroom ecosystem (Lightroom, Lightroom Classic, Lightroom for mobile (iOS & Android), Lightroom for web), and Adobe Camera Raw in Early Access. When exporting a JPEG from Lightroom, you can attach your name, social media handle, and a list of edits via a digital signature.

 

You can find the option to apply Content Credentials while exporting a JPEG in the export panel. It is, by default, turned OFF. You can choose to enable this option at the time of each export or enable it in App preferences for every export. Learn more.

 

If you choose to attach credentials, the information you submit will be tied to your image and can be verified by uploading the photo to contentcredentials.org/verify. Try out the early access version of Content Credentials and share your feedback with us.

 

Please include the following details in your post:

  • App version/platform
  • System details
  • Example image(s) if you wish to share

 

Thanks!

Lightromm classic 14.5, Mac OS 15.3.1

I miss the option to prohibit the use of my asset for AI/ML training, while exporting from LR or PS in the content credential settings.
Will it come or will it only possible during the application process on https://contentauthenticity.adobe.com?
Thanks for your initiative!

I'm using Camera Raw 17.4.2.2283 on MacOS Sequoia 15.5. I connected my Behance and Linked In accounts using (Manage) in the Save Options dialog, but the Connected Accounts check box under Content Credentials remains grayed out.

Hi, CC worked in the previous versions of Lightroom, but since version 14.4 (202506051112-5918896a) it's no longer working : I can't export with CC anymore, if I check CC box while exporting, I get an error message "Some exports were not completed: unable to apply CCs" and all my files are not exported.

I loved CC features ! But for now, I have to uncheck it while exporting, otherwise it no longer works, whereas it worked before. Sad.

There needs to be a way to change the "Producer" name other than the name on the Adobe account. I know that this is likely currently done to protect provenance to a verified identity, but then there needs to be more options to provide a verified identity. For example, my family shares an account, but there is no way to change the "Producer" to a particular family member's name. I can imagine other instances of users working under an employer's account, or using a shared school account, or acting on behalf of a creative agency, where this would also be needed.

When I'm exporting a photo, along with the LinkedIn/Instagram/etc options, the dialog has a section labeled "Web3" that allows the image to “be used for NFT creative attribution on supported marketplaces” where the supported marketplaces are Phantom and MetaMask."

 

It's 2025. That is over.

Hi Rikk
I had it set up and working for the previous versions of Lightroom and with the latest version it suddenly does not work anymore and in a way that it is very disruptive to my workflow: it exports the file and before my eyes it deletes it again 😱 The Connected accounts fail, while I have Behance connected and whatever I do I don't get it working. Failed to fetch connected accounts and when I click manage I am connected and in the web pages. When I chose Attach to files, it goes wrong also. It simply doesn't work.

I disabled it.

Couldn't export a batch 3 different times and then I realized this option had been turned on automatically. The "attach to files" option was selected when it kept failing. I was so confused at first! Would be great if it works, I think this could be an asset to photographers.

I consistently receive an error message when trying to export a PSD file that the credentials can't be saved. Then the export will not work at all.
