Question details

- Scenario

Verify File Sending Status in the Sent Files List
The only official way to confirm a file was sent via Adobe Send & Track is to check your Sent Files list, as the platform does not send a separate email receipt.
Adobe Send & Track is designed to keep all tracking information centralized within your account dashboard rather than cluttering your inbox with delivery receipts. To verify your file's status, you must manually check the built-in tracking interface.
Log in to your Adobe Document Cloud account via a web browser or open Adobe Acrobat and navigate to the Send & Track tool in the right-hand pane.
Click on the 'Sent Files' section to view the complete history of documents you have shared through the platform.
Look for the specific file name and timestamp in the list. If the document appears here, it was successfully processed and sent by Adobe's servers.
Click on the file to open its detailed activity log. This section will provide information on whether the recipient has successfully opened or downloaded the document.
