What’s New in Frame.io: Better Search, Clearer Lists, and Nikon Stills
Adobe highlights Frame.io updates including more accurate search, direct column-header sorting with a new Storage column, Nikon JPEG and RAW Camera to Cloud stills support from select cameras, and ongoing reliability improvements across plans.
We’ve shipped several improvements that make work easier.
Some are big features. Some just make Frame.io feel better.
Here’s the latest Frame.io updates.
More accurate and relevant search results
Search is better today across all Frame.io plans.
We’ve improved how Frame.io finds your content.
This update makes search more accurate and more relevant.
Here’s what’s better:
- Exact matches rank first
- Longer terms match before shorter ones
- Multiple matching parts of a name rank higher
- Single-letter or short nonsense matches are filtered out
That means if you search for David Blockbuster:
- The file named “David Blockbuster.mov” comes up first.
- A folder named “David” or “Blockbuster” appears lower.
- Small words like “in” don’t clutter the results.
This improvement is available for all Frame.io plans: Free, Pro, Team, and Enterprise.
Even without AI, search feels smarter and more reliable.
Better list view navigation
List View is one of the most used ways teams navigate Frame.io.
Now it works the way modern tables should.
Before, you had to use a separate Sort menu. After sorting, it wasn’t always clear what you were sorted by.
Now you can sort directly from the column headers.
Here’s what’s new:
- Click any column header to sort
- A visible arrow shows what you’re sorted by
- Sort state is clearer and easier to understand
- A new Storage column shows project storage usage
- Sorting works consistently across workspaces
When you click a header, the sort updates instantly. The selected sort field stays visible. You always know what order you’re viewing.
The new Storage column makes it easier to see which projects are growing.
These updates make it faster to scan, sort, and find projects—especially in large Enterprise workspaces.
Camera to Cloud now supports Nikon stills
Camera to Cloud now supports Nikon stills
Camera to Cloud now supports JPEG and RAW stills from select Nikon cameras—so photos can move from capture to Frame.io in seconds.
Shoot stills on:
- Nikon Z6III
- Nikon Z8
- Nikon Z9
- Nikon ZR
Using NX MobileAir (iOS and Android), images upload directly from the camera to Frame.io—no need to remove cards or manually transfer files before sharing. From there, editors can move seamlessly into Adobe Lightroom for immediate editing and delivery.
Just shoot. Upload. Done.
Continuing to improve how teams work
These updates make Frame.io easier to manage, easier to use, and more reliable day to day.
More to come soon.

New in Frame.io: Deeper Automation, Stronger Security, and Smarter Mobile Search
Frame.io unveils scale‑driven updates that boost automation, security, and mobile search. New flexible watermark controls, advanced Zapier automation, MASV server‑to‑server transfers for enterprises, and iOS media intelligence search help teams find and protect media faster on the go.
January brought a set of Frame.io product updates focused on scale—helping teams automate more of their workflows, protect work with greater confidence, and find the right media faster, even when they’re away from their desk.
From expanded Zapier automations to enterprise-grade transfer workflows, new watermark controls, and media intelligence on iOS, these updates make Frame.io more powerful across the entire lifecycle of creative work.
Here’s what’s new.More flexible watermark settings for secure media sharing
More flexibility and control for your watermarks
Watermarks are a critical part of protecting work—especially when assets are shared beyond your immediate team.
This update introduces more flexible watermark settings, giving teams greater control over how and when watermarks are applied across projects and Share Links:- A new watermark settings panel to manage how watermarks appear across your assets
- Toggle watermark visibility on or off per asset
- Adjust watermark placement and behavior to better suit different review scenarios
Whether you’re reviewing early cuts, sharing work externally, or preparing sensitive content for approval, watermarking can now be tailored more precisely to match your workflow—helping safeguard creative work without getting in the way of collaboration.
Go further: Frame.io Senior Product Manager Adam Whitaker shows how watermarking in Frame.io helps creative teams preserve context and security in modern production →
Advanced automation with Zapier (v1.3.3) for creative workflows
Advanced automation with Zapier (v1.3.3) for creative workflows
Frame.io’s Zapier integration just took a major step forward.
With the new custom API call action powered by the official Frame.io SDK, users can now access over 50 Frame.io API methods directly inside Zapier. This unlocks highly customized workflows that go far beyond standard triggers and actions.
Instead of waiting for one-size-fits-all automation, teams can now:- Create complete project structures programmatically—workspaces, projects, folders, and team assignments—all triggered by events in other tools.
- Update metadata at scale across multiple assets based on workflow states in connected apps.
- Access every Frame.io resource: accounts, workspaces, projects, folders, files, shares, comments, and more.
- Build bespoke workflows tailored to how their organization actually works.
Behind the scenes, this release also includes a full authentication overhaul with upgraded platform infrastructure and enhanced error detection. This significantly improves reliability for production-critical Zaps across the board.
The result?
Deeper automation, workflows that just work, and more confidence when Frame.io becomes part of your operational backbone.
Server-to-server transfers with MASV for large media workflows
Server-to-server transfers with MASV for large media workflows
For enterprise teams moving massive amounts of media, automation and security need to work together.
MASV now supports server-to-server (S2S) transfers for Adobe-managed Enterprise accounts, making it possible to move high-volume assets directly into Frame.io with a “set it and forget it” mentality.
This is especially useful for large organizations that manage users, permissions, and access centrally through the Adobe Admin Console.
This unlocks:- Fully automated ingest pipelines for large file transfers
- Cloud-first production workflows across multiple teams in your organization
- Security that adheres to the Adobe Admin Console governance and permissions
Large production teams can now move assets at scale while maintaining strict security controls—reducing friction without compromising oversight.
Media intelligence mobile search on iOS
Media intelligence mobile search on iOS
Finding the right shot shouldn’t have to wait until you’re back at your desk.
Search powered by media intelligence is available on iOS, bringing powerful visual search to mobile workflows. Teams can search media based on what’s actually in the content—objects, scenes, and visual details—not just filenames or metadata.
What’s new in this update:- Search results on iOS now provide richer context, showing not just which asset matched your query, but why—including the specific shots, fields, and comments associated with that match.
This makes it easier to: - Quickly locate specific shots while on set or in transit
- Review and reference assets during meetings with clearer context
- Move faster when decisions need to happen now—not later
It’s the same intelligent search experience—now optimized for mobile, with clearer insight into every result.
Built to scale with your workflow
Built to scale with your workflow
Each of these updates is designed to remove friction as teams grow—whether that’s scaling automation, tightening security, or making work easier to find wherever you are.More to come soon.

Watermarking: You Don’t Think About It—Until You Need It
Frame.io rolls out workspace-enforceable watermarking with granular permissions that protect shared work without slowing teams. Watermarks travel with the file across workspaces, adapt to viewer roles, and stay on downloads, keeping context and IP safe wherever work moves.
Most creative teams don’t think about watermarking until they really, really need it.
Not necessarily because something went wrong—but because something moved faster than expected.
Imagine you’re a producer working with external agencies. Multiple vendors. Multiple review links. Tight timelines.- A link gets forwarded.
- A file gets downloaded.
- A clean version surfaces outside the expected group.
No one is acting maliciously. But suddenly, the work has lost its context.
Which version is this? Who shared it? Why does the client think this is final?
This is why Frame.io has watermarking.
Watermarking doesn’t accuse anyone. It quietly answers the question already hanging in the room:
‘Where did this come from?’
Creative work moves fast—and travels far.
Files are shared. Assets circulate. Context and ownership doesn’t always come along for the ride.
Watermarking carries that context with the work:- This is a work in progress.
- This belongs to a specific workspace.
- This wasn’t meant to be public.
It’s not a lock or a warning.
It’s the signal that keeps content protected and expectations clear without slowing anyone down.
Designed for how teams actually work
Designed for how teams actually work
Not every project carries the same level of risk.
Frame.io’s watermarking is now workspace-enforceable and can be granularly applied using our permission-based model.Admins can define where it applies, who sees it, and what the rules are for shares, enforcing different rules across workspaces.
Highly sensitive content? Watermarking can be turned on for everyone (including admins and owners).Less sensitive assets? Apply watermarking just to viewers and commenters, while allowing your editors to work freely with originals.
Watermarks can be static or session-based, adapting to the viewer. Even on downloads, content remains protected—keeping creative work and IP safe, no matter where it travels.Quiet, reliable protection beats loud rules
Quiet, reliable protection beats loud rules
Granular-permission watermarking
The best form of content protection doesn’t slow you down.
Watermarking in Frame.io works like a seatbelt:- It’s always there.
- It enforces protection based on your permission without interrupting your access.
- It keeps content safe as it moves faster than ever.
Not a gate. Not a warning. Just context and protection that travels with the work.
