How can I get started with Photoshop API.

[dharmendrar87529056]

Hello,

I wanted to create a web app for creating a mockup or eBook cover generator. So I wanted to change the image in the PSD (In smart object) file through the API. 

I found this https://www.adobe.io/apis/creativecloud/photo-imaging-api.html on the official Adobe website. But don't understand how to get started with this. 

Can anyone help me with that? 

Thank you

Adobe Photoshop Licence has always prohibited users from making  Photoshop a web service.  It now look like  Adobe is marketing  Adobe I/O for users to use Adobe application in their Web application so Photoshop as a web service can now be done legally via Adobe I/O.

To me it look like Adobe I/O offering is targeted for Adobe's Enterprise customers for developing web Applications. To me it look like it be complex developing environment for developing reliable secure web applications.  Adobe Photoshop Developers should use it.

Thank you JJMack for the reply. 

I just wanted to know how can I get access to Photoshop as a web service. Or can I get the early access (or beta program) for the same?

You would need to apply for access to the beta programme using the sign up link on the page attached:

https://www.adobe.io/apis/creativecloud/photo-imaging-api/pricing.html

But note in the FAQs it clearly states "Access to the beta platform does not include the right or license to make any public, productive or commercial use of the Prerelease Software."
