Check Delivery and Viewing Status in Adobe Send
Log into Adobe Send to review file activity and ensure delivery notifications are enabled for your shared documents.
Adobe Send provides built-in tracking features that allow you to monitor when a recipient interacts with your shared files. By default, these notifications are turned on to help you keep track of your document's status.
Open your preferred web browser, navigate to cloud.acrobat.com, and sign in using your Adobe account credentials.
Once logged in, locate and click on the 'Sent Files' section to view a complete list of all the documents you have shared.
Select the specific sent file you want to track. Review its activity log to see timestamps indicating whether the recipient has successfully downloaded or viewed the document.
If you do not see any activity status or are not receiving email alerts, open the file settings for that specific document and verify that the notification option is toggled on.

Frequently Asked Questions
Are email notifications sent automatically when a file is viewed in Adobe Send?
Yes, Adobe Send enables download and viewing notifications by default, which means you will typically receive an email alert as soon as the recipient interacts with the document.
Why am I not receiving any viewing notifications for my sent files?
Notifications might have been turned off in your individual file settings, or the email alerts could be getting routed to your spam or junk folder. Check your Adobe Send settings to ensure the notification feature is active for that specific file.
Can I see exactly who viewed my document if I sent the link to multiple people?
If you send a generic public link to multiple people, the system may only show that the file was viewed or downloaded without identifying the specific individual. Requiring recipients to sign in provides more detailed tracking.
Does WPS Office offer secure file sharing and tracking capabilities?
Yes, WPS Office provides robust cloud-sharing features. You can share files via secure links, manage viewing permissions, set passwords, and track access directly through the WPS Cloud interface.
