Add Adobe Express designs to your posts

Create images and videos in Adobe Express and seamlessly add them to your social posts, right inside Hootsuite. You can add existing designs from your Adobe Express account, or create new ones in the Adobe Express editor inside the Hootsuite composer.

This article describes the new Social OS experience. If you haven't switched yet, select the Classic tab for instructions. Learn more about the Social OS experience.

This feature is available in the web version of Hootsuite only (not on mobile).

Keep in mind that any designs you create in Adobe Express inside Hootsuite are not saved to your Adobe Express account. If you need to make changes, you'll need to create a new design in Adobe Express and then re-attach it to your post.

Attach an Adobe Express design to your post

Go to Perch, then select Calendar to start and schedule your post in a calendar view, or select Create a post.
Select Create with Adobe Express.
In the Adobe Express editor, create your visuals. Visit the Adobe Express help center for instructions on designing in Adobe Express.
Tip: If you're already logged into your Adobe Express account, you can access your existing Adobe Express designs right inside composer.
When your design is ready, select Add to post.
Select a file format for your design (PNG or JPG for images, MP4 for videos), and then select Add to post to confirm your choice.
When you create or update designs with Adobe Express in Hootsuite, they are not saved to your Adobe Express account. If you close the Adobe Express editor without adding the design to your post, your design will be discarded.
(Optional) Customize your image. Point to the image thumbnail and select Edit image to crop or add effects, or select Alt to add alternative text for better accessibility. Learn more about editing images in Hootsuite.
Finish creating your post and publish it, or schedule it for later.
