Adobe Asset Migration

Last updated on Apr 25, 2023


Before you begin

For help transferring assets across accounts or profiles, see Adobe's help documentation. Please note: assets associated with CCA Adobe accounts can only be migrated manually.


For graduating students and recent graduates transferring Adobe assets associated with their assigned school accounts, the asset migration process is different depending on what it is you are moving so Adobe has outlined the details by application in their Moving Your Assets how-to guide. A few important notes:

  • All processes require you to log into your CCA Adobe school account.
  • To move items from a CCA Adobe Account to a new Personal Account, you will need to first establish a Personal Account.
  • Keeping assets published requires purchasing a plan.
