If you rely on the name of the “product admin group” (e.g., _product_admin_<product name>) you will also be impacted and have to update your scripts.

You should avoid any logic that expects fixed group names as these are liable to change without notice. We recommend using the Get Groups and Profiles API to fetch the latest group information.

Note that this data is likely to become stale over the coming months as the attribute is deprecated internally. If you are currently using this information, please get in touch with the developer support team to let us know your use case. Note that as this change is due to the data being retired from the Adobe platform, UMAPI will not be able to offer extensions to this time frame.

+

July 22, 2024: To provide peace of mind for API integrations, all APIs provided by UMAPI, even those marked as deprecated will continue to be supported for the foreseeable future.

If it becomes apparent that any API, deprecated or otherwise, needs to be retired from service or needs updated with a breaking change, Adobe will provide at least 6 (six) months notice of the change, via UMAPI documentation (this site) and via Developer Console banners.

We will also endeavour to provide 4 weeks notice of any new fields that are being added to responses in order to give time to prepare. As ever, guidance is to ignore any unrecognised or unknown fields in the UMAPI response. Unless it is documented, it should not be relied upon.

    July 23, 2025: We've been made aware that some customers are receiving group names with a mysterious suffix, such as provisioning. Since these groups or profiles with these names don't exist in Admin Console (they were a historic construct from a previous iteration of the Adobe platform), we will ensure that we fully filter out these mystery group names. APIs that return lists of group names will be changed to return only user group and product profile names that really exist in the org.

    As a best practice, it is recommended to avoid any logic that expects fixed names.

    This change will come into effect on August 26 September 23, 2025 October 28, 2025.
