Plugin review process

Hello everyone!

I’m slowly preparing my first plugin for adobe review process and I have a few questions which bother me.

  1. How is the review going to be done If my plugin requires to have API key from other application? This article mentions that plugin shouldn’t silently fail, but how will it be tested without full access to it’s features?
  2. Adobe Developer Distribution page states that plugin should support English language by default. Is it enough to have plugin description in English (in Adobe plugin market) or do I have to translate the entire UI? My plugin only works with one language, so it’s pretty much useless to have translation in other languages…
  3. How much time does it take on average for a plugin to be reviewed? I saw some posts here, where some of the devs were waiting for almost a whole month, but It was 2-3 years ago.
  4. Any other tips for a first plugin review?

Thank you in advance!

If your plugin requires paid credentials, when you submit your plugin to Adobe, you must provide test account login credentials, license number, or anything else that would be required to ensure that we can fully review your plugin.

Note: All plugin functionality must be accessible, either openly or through the credentials that you provide Adobe, for Adobe’s reviewers.


English is enough


It depends is there are holidays, but usually 1-3 working days. If it’s not reviewed in 10 days (Adobe says it shouldn’t take longer), contact Adobe team

I don’t know how I missed the information about test account…
