How can I update multiple swatches in Adobe InDesign quickly?

I have some 20 swatches I want to update. I've been doing this in Photoshop by using the Hue/Saturation tool, then putting the screenshot into InDesign, and creating new swatches with the eyedropper tool. Is there a faster way to do this?

I'm using InDesign CS6.

The best way to do this if you don't use Adobe's Creative Cloud Library would be to manually save out the file as an .ASE.

First have only the swatches you want to use in the panel.

Next click the menu drop down to get to save for exchange.





Next name your file appropriately and save it out to a location that is accessible.



Finally open up InDesign and select the drop down menu, head to load swaches and navigate to where you saved your .ASE file.
