Quick Actions overview

Last updated on Oct 28, 2026

Discover task-focused workflows in Adobe Firefly that guide you through creating content swiftly.

Quick Actions are guided workflows for creating content in Firefly. Each Quick Action provides the tools, prompts, and steps needed for a particular outcome, such as creating a product shot, a social media thumbnail, or generating captions.

Quick Actions can help when a task would otherwise require you to identify and use multiple Firefly features separately. Use them to:

  • Complete a specific creative task using a guided workflow.
  • Find the appropriate Firefly tools to create the result you want.
  • Work through a multi-step task without setting up each step separately.
  • Start with a predefined workflow and adjust the result for your project.
