My Role
My UX design contribution to this project was to provide experience and interface design for approval flow management, tag management, sharing architecture, and importing workflows. I have closely collaborated with the lead designer who created the Content Library framework.

Throughout the project, I was working with 2 product managers for 2 features. I teamed up with 2 engineers to discuss nailed ideas with technical capabilities and to refine the experience to be implemented properly.

Comprehensive Goal & Motivation
This initiative started with an issue that there is yet no centralized place to manage contents across all Adobe enterprise apps since many of our users are working with multiple apps across.
The approval management feature is an important part of content management.
