From what I’ve been reading here, Adobe allows us to make HTTP requests to their cloud services (specifically, their Photoshop APIs) in order to process PSD files and certain images. However, these cloud services have limitations. In particular, we can run locally recorded actions in the cloud, but I’ve not yet found any information about running scripts in the cloud, which is strange. I understand that scripts might have some nasty code, but you can always execute them in isolated environments.
So, is it correct that these Adobe services still don’t allow us to run scripts?
My use case is that I have many PSD files, which we usually process with a script. Each of them can take several hours to finish, which means that processing these scripts can take days. Moreover, we ofen need to process these PSD files again, which is a huge setback for productivity. Ideally, we’d like to run the scripts for each PSD file in parallel, in this way processing all of them should not take more than a couple of hours. So, it’d be nice if we could do that (e.g. in the cloud).
If we could also run them in parallel locally or on our own server, it would also be some progress, but the same Adobe Photoshop can only be installed on 2 computers.

That is correct, we currntly do not support scripts.

@Archy Posada Ok. Is there any plan to support this? If not, what would you suggest as an alternative for people that need to process many PSD files with a script, which can run for several hours for each PSD file?

We are curerntly looking into this feature but no plans for a release yet. As mentioned we do not have scripting support so this is not something that would be possible today. I recommend taking a look at our actions services to see if you might be able to accomplish the desired task there.
