Download all Adobe Stock purchased images or save to a Creative Cloud Library?

(queue murder mystery music)

I heard a rumor 'download all' is in the works this year. My source disappeared after mentioning it....?!

... anyone have more info about the timeline?

 

Less spooky question: Adobe Stock (or Creative Cloud?) downloads all purchases automatically to my 'Adobe Stock' personal library. Unfortunately only a fraction of them (900 of ~16,000) are there. Anyone have advice how to make everything sync from our Enterprise Account?

 

Thanks for any help!

Correct answer John_Arneson

Followup answer from Adobe support was that the 'save to default library' can't work retroactively. My access rights limited what was downloading unfotunately. In hindsight setting up a corporate library from an admin account would be best (doesn't solve attrition issues if that employee leaves... a corporate level account would be nice)

 

No response on if a 'download all' feature is coming.

 

Stoked to there is an API solution though, looks like this will solve the problem.

I hope I'm wrong here, but it seems the API doesn't expose the file type of the images. It is possible to download images as JPEG, but images with transparency cannot be downloaded as PNG.

The API seems focused more on purchasing licenses than handling assets already purchased.

If you have an question about Stock API then please start a new thread and mark the topic as Stock API. You'll get a better response than burying your question in an old thread. Locking post since original question has been answered.

Just licensd an image and maybe this helps explain what's happening better. 
How do I get all Enterprise images to save to one 'default library'?
