Getting Started

Introducing the Workfront Fusion API

The public API release for the Workfront Fusion API marks an exciting milestone for programmatically managing and automating Fusion workflows. Built on API version 3, the Fusion API will enable developers to integrate Fusion capabilities directly into their applications, automate scenario management, and build custom automation solutions.

Experimental Phase

The Fusion API is currently in an experimental phase as we actively develop and refine the capabilities. This designation means that while the API is functional and ready for integration, endpoints, request/response structures, and features may evolve based on user feedback and technical requirements. We recommend staying updated with the latest documentation.

Getting Started with Integration

You can use the Fusion API in two ways: call the REST API from your own code, or use the Adobe Fusion connector inside a Fusion scenario. Requests can be authenticated as a Fusion user or as a technical account (OAuth Server-to-Server). Both are supported for API calls and in the Adobe Fusion connector.

Most integrations use a technical account. Start with the Authentication overview, then follow these steps:

Create credentials - In the Adobe Developer Console, add the Adobe Fusion API with an OAuth Server-to-Server credential. This creates the technical account.
Give the technical account access - Add it to teams for team access, or make it an Organization Owner for organization-wide access. Organization-wide access and admin-level actions, such as activity logs, also need admin access in the Adobe Admin Console. Without this step, requests return no data.
Then choose your path:
- Call the REST API - Generate an access token and send it with the required API headers.
- Use the Adobe Fusion connector - Create an IMS Server to server connection in a scenario.
Usage Notes - Review API usage guidelines and best practices.

Current Features

The Fusion API currently supports the following capabilities, enabling enterprise teams to build powerful integrations and automation management tools:

Scenario Management

Discover and audit your automation portfolio — List and search all scenarios across your organization, making it easy to inventory thousands of automations across departments or business units
Export scenario blueprints at scale — Download full configuration blueprints for up to 100 scenarios per request, enabling backup pipelines, compliance reviews, and cross-environment migration workflows
Clone scenarios programmatically — Replicate any scenario into a target team with automatic substitution of connections, webhooks, data stores, and data structures — ideal for provisioning new client environments or onboarding teams with pre-built templates
Inspect scenario dependencies — Retrieve the full dependency graph for any scenario, including all linked connections, data stores, hooks, and keys, to support impact analysis before making infrastructure changes

Organization and Folder Structure

Manage scenario folders — Create, rename, and delete folders to keep large automation libraries organized by project, team, or function
Query folder metadata — Retrieve folder lists with scenario counts, supporting dashboards that reflect your organization's automation structure

Connection Visibility

Inventory all integration connections — List and retrieve details for every connection in your organization, enabling governance workflows that track which external systems are integrated
Map connections to scenarios — Identify every scenario that depends on a given connection, so you can assess risk before rotating credentials or deprecating an integration

Hook Management

Discover and inspect webhooks — List all configured webhooks across teams, or retrieve full configuration details for a specific hook, supporting security audits and documentation generation

Data Store Oversight

Monitor data store usage — List all data stores with size and record count metrics, supporting capacity planning and cost optimization across enterprise tenants
Retrieve data store details — Access metadata for individual data stores to support governance, lifecycle management, and data residency reviews

Execution Logs and Monitoring

Query execution history — Retrieve paginated execution records for any scenario, filtered by status (warnings, failures), to power operational dashboards and SLA reporting
Inspect individual executions — Get detailed summaries for specific scenario runs, including the object context, to accelerate incident investigation and root cause analysis

Operations Reporting

Track API operation consumption — Retrieve operation counts filtered by team, scenario, or package over any custom date range (up to one year), enabling accurate cost allocation and quota management
Get organization-wide summaries — Access high-level operation breakdowns by scenario and team to identify automation hotspots and optimize usage across your organization

Activity Logs and Compliance

Audit organization activity — Access a full, cursor-paginated activity log for your organization, giving compliance and security teams the visibility they need for regulatory reporting
Export audit logs — Export activity data as CSV or XLSX for offline analysis, audit submissions, or integration with SIEM and governance platforms

What's Next

The current API focuses on visibility and reporting. Future work is oriented around:

Full lifecycle management — Create, update, and delete automation resources through code
Enterprise governance — Consistent, auditable automation management across teams and environments

Next Steps

Once you've completed the setup process, you'll be ready to explore available endpoints in the API Reference. Additional capabilities for building automations, integrating Fusion into your applications, and creating custom tooling will become available as the API continues to evolve.
