Salesforce Commerce Cloud (SFCC) - Adobe Experience Manager Assets Integration and Automation

Common Integration Use Cases Between Salesforce Commerce Cloud and Adobe Experience Manager Assets

1. Centralized product imagery and rich media delivery to storefronts

Data flow: Adobe Experience Manager Assets ? Salesforce Commerce Cloud

Marketing and creative teams manage approved product images, videos, banners, and lifestyle content in AEM Assets, then publish selected assets to Salesforce Commerce Cloud product detail pages, category pages, and landing pages. SFCC can consume asset URLs, renditions, and metadata to display the right media by product, region, or campaign.

Business value: Ensures consistent brand presentation across the commerce site, reduces manual asset handling by e-commerce teams, and shortens time to launch new products or campaigns.

• Automated asset synchronization for new product launches
• Dynamic renditions for web, mobile, and high-resolution views
• Reduced risk of using outdated or unapproved creative

2. Automated campaign content updates for promotions and seasonal merchandising

Data flow: Adobe Experience Manager Assets ? Salesforce Commerce Cloud

When marketing launches a seasonal campaign in AEM Assets, approved banners, hero images, and promotional videos can be pushed into SFCC merchandising slots and content assets. SFCC then serves the correct creative based on campaign schedule, market, or storefront.

Business value: Improves campaign execution speed, reduces dependency on manual site updates, and helps merchandising teams keep storefront content aligned with marketing calendars.

• Scheduled asset publishing for campaign start and end dates
• Regional content variations for localized promotions
• Faster updates for flash sales and limited-time offers

3. Asset metadata enrichment using product and commerce context

Data flow: Salesforce Commerce Cloud ? Adobe Experience Manager Assets

SFCC can send product identifiers, category data, brand, season, and market attributes to AEM Assets so creative teams can tag and organize assets by commerce context. This makes it easier to find the right image or video for a specific SKU, collection, or region.

Business value: Improves asset searchability and reuse, reduces duplicate creative production, and supports faster content assembly for commerce teams.

• Link assets to SKUs, categories, and campaigns
• Support for multi-brand and multi-region asset libraries
• Better governance for approved product visuals

4. Automated approval workflow for commerce-ready assets

Data flow: Bi-directional

Creative teams upload assets into AEM Assets, where they go through review, rights validation, and approval workflows. Once approved, AEM can notify SFCC or publish directly to a commerce-ready asset repository. If SFCC merchandising teams request changes, feedback can be routed back to AEM for revision.

Business value: Creates a controlled handoff between creative and commerce teams, reduces publishing errors, and ensures only approved assets reach the storefront.

• Workflow-driven approval before storefront publication
• Version control for revised product and campaign assets
• Auditability for compliance and brand governance

5. Dynamic media optimization for storefront performance

Data flow: Adobe Experience Manager Assets ? Salesforce Commerce Cloud

AEM Assets can deliver optimized renditions of images and videos based on device type, browser, bandwidth, or page context, while SFCC references those optimized delivery URLs. This supports fast-loading product pages without requiring separate asset variants to be manually created and stored in SFCC.

Business value: Improves page speed, mobile shopping experience, and conversion rates while reducing storage and maintenance overhead in the commerce platform.

• Automatic format and size optimization
• Responsive media delivery for mobile and desktop
• Lower operational burden on e-commerce content teams

6. Localization of commerce content and assets for global storefronts

Data flow: Bi-directional

SFCC manages localized storefronts, pricing, and merchandising by market, while AEM Assets stores region-specific creative, language variants, and legal disclaimers. Integration ensures the correct asset version is matched to the correct SFCC site, locale, or country-specific campaign.

Business value: Supports global commerce operations with consistent localization, reduces the risk of publishing incorrect regional content, and accelerates market launches.

• Locale-based asset selection for storefronts
• Country-specific legal and compliance variants
• Efficient management of multilingual campaign assets

7. Asset usage analytics to improve commerce content performance

Data flow: Salesforce Commerce Cloud ? Adobe Experience Manager Assets

SFCC can provide performance data such as click-through rates, conversion rates, and product page engagement back to AEM Assets so marketing teams can understand which images, videos, or banners drive better results. This helps teams prioritize high-performing creative and retire underperforming assets.

Business value: Enables data-driven creative decisions, improves return on content investment, and aligns marketing production with commerce outcomes.

• Track asset performance by product or campaign
• Identify top-performing creative variants
• Inform future asset production and testing strategies

8. New product launch orchestration across content and commerce teams

Data flow: Bi-directional

For a new product launch, AEM Assets stores approved imagery, videos, and launch collateral, while SFCC receives the final assets along with product launch timing and merchandising references. Commerce teams can then build product pages and campaign landing pages using ready-to-publish creative, with both systems aligned to the launch schedule.

Business value: Reduces launch delays, improves cross-team coordination, and ensures product content is complete and consistent at go-live.

• Coordinated launch readiness across creative and commerce
• Faster setup of product detail and campaign pages
• Reduced manual coordination between departments
