Files overview

Last updated on 9 Jun 2026

Discover the Files menu in Adobe Firefly and access your generation history, projects, and creative assets in one centralized space.

Located in the left panel, Files is a central space in Firefly that lets you efficiently organize, access, and manage all your content.

This space helps you maintain a structured workflow by categorizing your content into logical sections, making it easier to find and work with your assets regardless of their type or creation date.

Access your Files

You can access your personal files, projects, shared files, and generation history by selecting the Files option in the left panel. The Files menu is organized into several key sections, each designed to help you manage specific types of content:

Firefly's Your stuff page displays tabs like Your files, Shared with you, Projects, Favorites, Style kits, and Deleted
Files provides easy access to saved projects, generation history, elements, and more.

Generation history

The Generation history section helps you find all your previously created audio, video, or image generations, allowing you to track your generative work. Learn how to view your generation history.

Elements

The Elements section contains all of your saved elements- characters, locations, and objects from your generations. This helps you organize and reference elements across new images and videos to keep your creative work consistent — the same face, scene, and look, without having to start over each time.

Projects

The Projects section helps you group related files together for better organization. Projects allow you to collect multiple assets across different Adobe apps in a centralized space to help you organize your creative work, manage permissions, and streamline sharing. With Projects, you can:

  • Organize content by client, campaign, or purpose, and share it with entire groups rather than individuals.
  • Share entire collections with collaborators at once, eliminating the need to move or duplicate files. 

Your files

The Your files section contains all your individual Adobe files. These include images, videos, and other assets that you’ve accessed or created using Adobe Home (including Express, Acrobat, and other Adobe apps), and other exported files from your Firefly projects.

Shared with you

The Shared with you section displays all files and projects that others have shared with you. Shared with you allows you to:

  • Access files shared by teammates and other collaborators.
  • View projects you've been invited to collaborate on.
  • Provide feedback on shared content.
  • Download or make copies of shared assets (depending on permissions).

Deleted

The Deleted section serves as a recycle bin for your Firefly content, providing temporary storage for recently deleted files and projects. You can recover accidentally removed content that is typically retained for a limited period before being permanently deleted.
