Datastream updates
A new validation rule enforces that the combination of datastream ID and sandbox name must be unique within an IMS Org for Adobe Target destination connections. This prevents reusing the same datastream ID + sandbox pair across multiple connections, allows the same datastream ID to be used only in different sandboxes, and applies even when selecting None. The update strengthens configuration guard
Datastream ID and sandbox combination must be unique for Adobe Target destination connections
Updated validation logic for Target destination connections to enforce that the combination of datastream ID and sandbox name must be unique within an IMS Org. This means:
- The same datastream ID + sandbox name pair cannot be reused across multiple Target destination connections.
- The same datastream ID can be used for different connections only if they are configured in different sandboxes.
- This rule applies to all datastream selections, including when "None" is selected.
This update ensures consistent configuration and prevents conflicts across multi-sandbox environments. For more information, see Adobe Target connection in the Experience Platform Destinations guide.

Acrobat Studio helps you work smarter with AI, from office to home to school
Adobe launches Acrobat Studio, an AI-powered hub that blends PDF tools, Express templates and AI Assistants for faster work. It introduces PDF Spaces, personalized assistants, smart summaries, and templates to organize studies, projects, travel plans and career prep.
Acrobat Studio
These days, many of us feel like both the pace of life and our own expectations are rising — whether we’re at work, in school or sitting around the kitchen table making big decisions for our families. With the breadth of information we’re gathering and then sifting through to do that sales presentation, school project or financial planning, we can all benefit from a little assistance to help us get things done smarter and faster.
This was our inspiration as we designed Acrobat Studio, a new AI-powered home for modern work that brings together the productivity of Adobe Acrobat, easy content creation tools from Adobe Express and the help of AI Assistants powered by agentic technology.
We built Acrobat Studio for an era when it can feel like there’s aways more information to sort through, verify and understand. A time when we can all benefit from being able to uplevel how we communicate — especially visually. And a time when we’re all looking for more seamless and simple solutions for everyday challenges.
You can put Acrobat Studio to work for you starting today. Here’s a peak at a few of the things you can do with it:
With Acrobat Studio, you can show up to the big meeting more prepared. Brief your boss, your team or the board with clarity and confidence. Better understand your top prospect’s business and brand to craft a polished proposal. Zip through the pros, cons and differences between dozens of vendor proposals and make a savvy recommendation — or create standout content with professionally designed templates — in no time at all.
Acrobat Studio brings together the industry-leading PDF tools that hundreds of millions of people rely on, with personalized AI Assistants and content creation capabilities, to create an AI-powered destination that helps you achieve your goals faster, with greater impact.
Phil Pallen is a brand strategist, Adobe ambassador and author of the recently published book, AI for Small Businesses. "Acrobat Studio isn’t just a smarter way to work with documents—it’s a smarter way to work, period,” said Pallen. “I’ve used it to plan content for a client launch, build a creative brief for a photoshoot, compare speaker decks, and even prep talking points across 30 pages of PDF proposals—all inside one space."
PDF Spaces
Bring PDFs, Office 365 files, weblinks and more into your own conversational knowledge hubs where you can chat to uncover insights, generate ideas, validate responses with precise citations, and add notes. Need to review? You can revisit a PDF Space anytime.

Share the entire PDF Space, with the personalized AI Assistant, with colleagues and customers to deliver knowledge, not just files.

Acrobat AI Assistant: Creating the future of AI with Japan’s ISMAP registration
Adobe Acrobat AI Assistant earns ISMAP registration, a first for an Adobe AI feature, enabling compliant use in Japan’s public sector. The milestone, aligned with Adobe CCF and AI ethics, delivers secure, citation-rich document interactions across PDF, Word, and PowerPoint in Japanese.
Adobe Acrobat AI Assistant ISMAP Registration
As compliance remains a priority and an ongoing effort at Adobe, we are happy to announce that Adobe Acrobat AI Assistant, our innovative generative AI feature, has completed the Information System Security Management and Assessment Program (ISMAP) framework and is officially registered in the ISMAP Registry as of April 28, 2025.
Following Adobe’s first ISMAP registration for Adobe Document Cloud in 2023, this milestone marks the first time an Adobe AI feature has received this prestigious registration, setting the stage for further advancements in AI-driven document management solutions within Japan’s public sector.
The Japanese government first introduced the ISMAP framework in June 2020 to enhance the security of its cloud service procurement. By pre-evaluating and registering cloud services that meet stringent security standards, ISMAP helps streamline the seamless adoption of cloud solutions across government agencies.
About Acrobat AI Assistant
Acrobat AI Assistant's ISMAP registration represents a significant step forward in our ongoing mission to provide cutting-edge technology to Japanese government agencies. As a first-of-its-kind AI feature in the ISMAP Registry, Acrobat AI Assistant introduces powerful capabilities for efficiently interacting with documents.
Users can now engage with their documents by asking questions and receiving precise, tailored responses with the information they need. Acrobat AI Assistant supports contracts, meeting transcripts, and other documents in PDF, Microsoft Word, and PowerPoint formats — and is now available in Japanese. One of the standout features of Acrobat AI Assistant is its ability to simplify complex documents by highlighting key details, making comparisons easier, and providing responses with clickable citations that direct users to specific points within their documents. By helping users stay focused on what matters and saving valuable time, it is an essential tool for boosting workplace productivity.
Ensuring compliance through the Adobe Common Control Framework (CCF)
With the rise of generative AI and the increasing demand for robust cybersecurity governance, Acrobat AI Assistant aligns with the Adobe Common Controls Framework (CCF), helping ensure compliance with stringent security protocols. The ISMAP framework is based on the ISO 27000 series and has evolved into a comprehensive collection of nearly 1,200 detailed controls. The Adobe CCF plays a critical role in helping to ensure our continued compliance with ISMAP and other industry or government standards, regulations, and certifications. Moreover, the Adobe CCF enables consistent management of risks across systems and operations, offering a structured approach to security and privacy. As a leader for common controls in the industry, the Adobe CCF is continuously evolving to align with global security compliance standards and regulations, such as SOC2, ISO 27001, 27017, 27018, FedRAMP, IRAP, Spain ENS, and many others.
Additionally, Acrobat AI Assistant upholds Adobe’s AI Ethics principles of accountability, responsibility, and transparency — ensuring that Adobe’s generative AI models and third-party LLMs are never trained on customer data.
Shifting compliance
One of the key strategies of registering Acrobat AI Assistant with ISMAP is to proactively integrate compliance and security measures early in the development process. By onboarding new products early and utilizing CCF, we not only streamline audit tasks but also ensure that broad controls are already in place, setting new products up for success.
This early focus on compliance significantly helps lighten the burden on engineers, guiding product teams to standardized, efficient paths that simplify the entire compliance process. By shifting compliance responsibilities earlier and embedding them within the change management process, we enable a smoother, more secure development cycle.
As Adobe continues to lead in AI-powered solutions, Acrobat AI Assistant remains committed to fostering customer trust by continually working toward enhancing our security governance and safeguarding user data and privacy.
