Starting a collaboration
An individual creates a new project (page or video) at Adobe Spark.
- Log in to Adobe Spark and click on the blue plus sign.
- Click on the Start from Scratch icon and select either Web Page or Video.
- Skip through any quick tip tutorial screens you might encounter by clicking on the “Ok I’m ready” link.
- Click on the Invite icon in the Spark toolbar at the top of the screen.
- Enter the email address(es) of collaborators (DirectoryID@umd.edu)
- Click on the Invite link.
Inviting collaborators to a project that already exists
- Locate the project in the Your Projects dashboard and
- Click on the three ellipses (...) in the upper right corner of the project card.
- Choose the Share option from the resulting menu and select Invite.
- Enter email addresses and click on the Invite link as described in steps 5 and 6.
Accepting an invitation to collaborate
When you receive an email notification inviting you to edit a project you will simply click on the Accept link in the message. Projects Shared with you will appear under a new link on your project dashboard and you can click on the project card to access it. Any edits you make to the collaborative project are visible to the owner and the collaborator(s).
Rules of the road for Spark collaborations
Currently, real-time collaborations are not possible. Only one person can edit a Spark project at a time. Only the owner of the project can publish the finished product or update the link to it. Collaborators can download a project and copy the link to the published project. Spark collaborations must be conducted from a desktop or laptop computer; collaborative projects are disabled when Spark is accessed from a mobile device.
