InDesign Share for Review links not working

[AFrack]

Anyone else having issue with InDesign review links not working today? I have sent out a few and reviewers are getting this message. Other programs seem to be working fine.

[Laura31936331zwa6]

YES! This is so ^#$*@#$^ frustrating!!! Except today links created prior to today are working—until they are updated after edits and new links aren't working either. Adobe, please pull it together! Can you just roll back to the version before this one because it is NOT ready for primetime. Listen to your customers! 

[Charlotte Lindstedt]

Has it started working for you again?

I've had Adobe help, and they've now completed my task - but it still doesn't work for me.

Hi,

This is still happening. I tried different browsers and devices and still no share. It was working an hour ago. I also created a new link and that didn't do the trick either.

Thanks.

I am having the same issue with my link. It works for a week, then stops. We have been trying to implement it into our designing process but it doesn't work randomly. https://assets.adobe.com/id/urn:aaid:sc:US:49759696-2d70-4c82-ba07-4a0129c3dba6?view=published

I am having the same issue today. I've tried creating new review links but it pulls up the same error message. I still get the error message when in an incognito browser as well. I just used this same link this morning and it worked just fine. 

[jordon_7903]

Clearing cache and incognito is not working; the links were up an hour ago, and now everything is a 404. Please provide an update.

The problem was resolved on Oct. 3, but it is back to the same problem this morning. Error 404

[bryce_4149]

This has been an issue for us. No review links work.

[Adrial79]

I'm getting the same error message across all of my review links all of the sudden. They were working just fine even an hour ago.

[erin_3279]

This issue just popped up for my whole team today, and we're unable to access any InDesign review links.

[PierceWmson]

I am having this issue today as of 2:40pm EST

We are still having the 404 Error. This has not been resolved. Please fix!

[Abhishek Rao]

Hi everyone,

I know how frustrating those 404 errors can be when you're in the middle of work. The product team has implemented a fix for this issue. Please clear your browser cache and cookies, then restart your browser and try opening the review link again. It would be great if you could let us know which browser you’re using and whether the links work after clearing the cache, so we can share the results with the team.

Appreciate your patience and cooperation.
Abhishek

Does this issue coincide with the missing tools? 

[pamy46361406]

No, the tools have been missing for about a week for me.

[pamy46361406]

Thank you. That worked. I'm using Chrome Version 141.0.7390.54. Are my clients going to need to clear their cache and cookies to be able to view the review links?

There area a number of changes to S4R over this last 3-6 months, none of which have been communicated and all of them have degraded this great approval tool.

1. I can no longer see previous S4Rs in the 'Shared with you' section on my CC online environment. This has been working since we started using S4R in 2020, but stopped 6 months ago now? Why?

2. When you receive an email invitation for a S4R, up until the 8/9th August this year you would know who was sending you this invitation as the 'From' would include their email address. Since the 10th August, all it says on From is ''Adobe Creative Cloud' for all and so you cannot ascertain straightaway who it is from. This is very annoying as you can no longer search for certain people or see the woods for the trees. Can this be returned to how it was pre 10th August?

3. When you load up a S4R in your browser, it now (over this last week) displays as 'Your work' on the tab – weird. Before I believe, it showed the email address of the sender.

4. After the period of broken S4Rs (404s) since last thursday, the interface has changed. No longer do we have the text editing tools and only 'Place a pin' and 'Draw a shape' remain. In addition the page navigation has moved to the bottom of the pane, and by default it is anchored over the browser slider bar which enabled you to pan across a page if you zoomed in. You can 'Unlock' this by cicking on the right hand icon, but it still kind of floats over the work you are presenting, so not ideal – this was better before, when it was anchored within the commentary panel.

I can see from the strength of feeling and amount of commentary on this thread that there are a lot of affected users and it does not appear to be an our issue, but an Adobe issue that needs fixing.

Can we have an update on what is going on please Adobe and I'd appreciate a response to the 4 points I have raised above.
Many thanks

Thank you @MattheausG for this clear summary!

And I agree with you that Adobe should have communicated all these changes. Even before development, because it is clear we all agree that these changes are not improvements.

[NOcreationsBE]

@Abhishek Rao The 404 error is gone again, but the tools for text corrections and highlighting are still missing, as are the connections between the comments that should be linked to text. Selecting a comment that was linked to text does take you to the right page/spread, but it does not show what part of the text it refers to.

I'm experiencing the exact same thing.  

See this thread: https://community.adobe.com/t5/indesign-discussions/share-for-review-tools-not-working/m-p/15535462#...

I have not been able to get my InDesign Share for review links to work since Friday, Oct 6. When I click on the thumbnail it returns an Error 404: Asset not found.

Also, where did the text markups go in the review panel? You used to be able to add strike through text and replace text comments. Now it looks like you can only add a pin and hand draw shapes for comments.

[EMMALBROWN]

Yep, my review links aren't working again now either

[MattheausG]

Yep, everyone getting 404 again within the last hour!
This is really testing my patience...

[Umesh_Patel1687]

yep, was working for a while with the stripped back tools, but now getting 404 messages as of this afternoon. This is not a good look when you are trying to complete projects for clients on approaching deadlines.

[puresprings]

How has this not been resolved yet? THis is a major issue I have files out for review with clients and they can't view. You guys need to fix this asap.
