Learn how to add design assets from Adobe XD to Creative Cloud Libraries and access them from other Creative Cloud apps, and vice versa.
XD makes it easy for you and your teams to use assets created in different Creative Cloud applications like Photoshop and Illustrator. Creative Cloud Libraries is designed to enable you to easily share assets between these applications. Creative Cloud Libraries allow you to save content like graphics, images, colors, and text styles in a library, which is synced to your Creative Cloud account.
To use Creative Cloud Libraries, ensure that you are signed in with the same Adobe ID for all the CC apps.
Use any of these workflows to reuse assets between XD and other Creative Cloud apps such as Photoshop and Illustrator:
Drag-and-drop the Photoshop or Illustrator asset into the CC Libraries panel or click + in the CC Libraries panel to add the asset.
Click File > Open CC Libraries in XD. Drag-and-drop your Photoshop or Illustrator asset to your Adobe XD project., double-click the asset to modify and save your changes.
Once you created all your reusable colors, character styles and component in your cloud document, you can publish those document assets as a library to reuse them consistently across all your projects.
To publish a library, click Publish as a Library
