Configure the optimization parameters in the API request to match your advanced optimization requirements (e.g., image compression, font subsetting, removing objects).
Best practiceRefer to Adobe’s API documentation for detailed options to fine-tune optimization for your workflow.
Add a step to save or route the optimized PDF to your desired destination (such as a SharePoint folder, email, or another app).

You can preview optimization results in Acrobat before finalizing your automated workflow settings.
The Adobe PDF Services API 'Optimize PDF' endpoint allows programmatic advanced optimization of PDF files within automated workflows.
You can connect Acrobat to Power Automate by adding the Acrobat PDF optimization action into your workflow. This lets the system shrink PDF files as soon as they are uploaded or created, so you don't have to do it by hand.

Yes, when you set up the integration, you can add rules or filters so that only certain PDFs—like those over a certain size or from a specific folder—are optimized automatically.
Integrating PDF optimization saves time and reduces mistakes because it happens automatically as part of your workflow, while manual optimization means extra steps and can be easily forgotten.
