Adobe Experience Manager

I am encountering an unexpected behavior in AEM during the Page Publish workflow rollback scenario.When a parent page is activated (using Replicator.replicate) using a custom replication agent, the replication framework correctly triggers one invocation of PackageContentBuilder.create(which is an implementation of ContentBuilder class, and is configured through serializationType in the agent) for the parent payload.However, when the same parent page is deactivated (as part of rollback), the replication framework triggers multiple implicit invocations of PackageContentBuilder.create() — first for the parent, then for each of its child pages.This occurs even though only the parent path is explicitly passed to the Replicator.replicate() call. Raised adobe ticket and they confirmed that this is the OOTB functionality and we want to implement  a custom replication deactivation flow. Can anyone please suggest  how to  implement that.

I have encountered an issue while updating the page properties. There is a deny rule for everyone group as shown in the below screenshot. Users belonging to a specific group are unable to update page properties, even though they have Read, Modify, Create, and Delete permissions for the required path. The necessary permissions for /content have been granted, but these users continue to receive an error.To resolve the issue, I added the jcr:modifyProperties privilege, after which the error was resolved. However, I noticed that jcr:modifyProperties was not listed among the original privileges, and I verified the rep:policy node as well.Interestingly, when I remove the rep:write privilege and add only jcr:modifyProperties, I can see the entry, which suggests that jcr:modifyProperties is an aggregate privilege of rep:write. This raises the question: why did it not work when rep:write was granted, and why wa

Hi Everyone, I am developing an AEM component on AEMaaCS instance (headful approach).I need to get content fragment data and display it on the page using the AEM component in headful architecture. I am using Sling model to make a call to graphql endpoint. I used Apache libraries HttpGet, CloseableHttpClient to make a GET call to graphql endpoint.The code works fine in local AEM instance  but on AEMaaCS, it gives a "read timed out" error while making the graphql call. Any help in resolving this issue?  

Hi Community, Is there an option to purge the CDN cache for a particular website when multiple websites are installed on a single AEM as a Cloud Service environment? I understand that this might be achievable by adding a surrogate key to all pages within one website, but I’m wondering if there is a simpler or more straightforward way to accomplish this, as it seems to be a very basic requirement. Any insights or recommendations would be greatly appreciated! Regards,Rustam

Hi all,We are implementing Elastic search Cloud for our Search implementation , We need to implement the Hybrid Search. What are best practices to implement the search , if anyone has implemented please provide guidance.

Please guide on how to use Macro in AEMaaCS  dispatcher.In which folder we should declare Macro and how to call it in Vhost ? We are using Multi-site setup, need multiple vhost files and how to make it generic and use Macro https://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/mod/mod_macro.html#useChecked above document, but not sure how to make a complete vhost as a Macro and how to call it in enabled vhosts folder? Can we call a Macro within a Macro?Can we create full  vhost using Macro instead of creating Macro just to include Rewrite rules?

Hi all,Previously, I was using JDK 11 and JUnit 4 in the AEM project source code, and all the core module test cases were passing. However, after upgrading to JDK 21 and JUnit 5, all the test cases started failing with several issues such as NullPointerException, NoClassDefFoundError, and others. For your reference, I have attached a screenshot.I want to investigate why this happened and how we can fix it. Do we need to resolve these null and NoClassDefFoundError issues manually by visiting each and every failing class, or is there any other way?  Please provide proper guidance. Thanks

 Hi AEM Community,We are trying to add a custom Oak index in our AEM as a Cloud Service project. We tried adding the index in both:ui.apps packageui.apps/structure (we created a structure folder inside ui.apps)However, our Maven build fails with multiple errors and warnings. Here is the relevant part of the log:  [WARNING] ValidationViolation: Filter root's ancestor '/content/dam' is not covered by any of the specified dependencies nor a valid root. @ META-INF\vault\filter.xml, validator: jackrabbit-filter [WARNING] ValidationViolation: Package of type 'MIXED' is legacy.

Greetings, I would like to create conditional loop behavior in my AEM workflow.  I have found two possible implementations in the documentation, but am having trouble getting either to work. The first method would be to use the built in 'GoTo' step.  However, I want the loop to execute conditionally based upon the value of a variable that must be calculated on the server.  My idea was to generate this value in a custom workflow process immediately before the 'GoTo' step and then pass the value to the 'GoTo'.  However, I have been unable to find a way to successfully pass the variable such that it will be visible in the 'GoTo' step's ECMA script.  Please let me know if there is a way to do this. The second method is to use the com.adobe.granite.workflow.exec.Route API.  When attempting to use this however, the workflow steps do no execute in the order I expected.  Consider the following workflow diagram:  Under my test cas

Hi,We have enabled dedicated egress for our AEMaaCS program but when we are making 3rd party REST API calls (Boomi) from AEM server side (OSGi services) the client IP in Azure Front door which is in front of Boomi does not match with AEMaaCS dedicated egress IP as a result we see http status 502 with mesasage something like "Azure Front door cannot connect to the origin server." We noticed that client IP is changing frequently.Command nslookup p<Program ID>.external.adobeaemcloud.com - gives us the correct dedicated egress IP which has been whitelisted in Azure Front door of target/Boomi.Can anyone help us with a solution for this issue? Do we need to change the implementation of HttpClient connection call?

 I have a package that install the etc map entries on my Publishers.I currently have some mapping configs there that are obsolete, but must be removed because they break the new correct mapping.all my mappings are located underneath /etc/map.exampleThe rule in the filter.xml is<filter root="/etc/map.example" mode="replace"/>so I would expect the whole tree underneath to be wiped and replaced (according to https://jackrabbit.apache.org/filevault/filter.html ), but this is clearly not what happens - I checked in the AEM cloud Publish Repository Browser and the old nodes are still there.Unfortunately the Repo Browser has no option to delete stuff. The nodes I need to delete are as follows:/etc/map.example/integration.publish/https/integration.example.com/redirect_old/etc/map.example/integration.publish/https/integration.example.fr/etc/map.example/integration.publish/https/integration.example.de/etc/map.example/integration.publish/https/integration.examp

Hi AEM Community,   I'm working on an AEM Forms implementation and need some guidance on the best approach for the following use case:   Requirements: The form is embedded in an iFrame on an external website The parent page URL contains a token parameter that needs to be captured This token must be used to make a backend API call to retrieve user data The API response should prefill specific form fields (name and email) Flow: Parent URL (with token) → iFrame loads AEM Form → Capture token → Backend API call → Prefill form fields My Questions: What's the recommended approach for this scenario in AEM Forms? Custom Prefill Service vs Client-side implementation? How to properly capture URL parameters from parent window when in iFrame? Should I create a custom servlet/OSGi service to proxy the external API call, or can this be handled differently? Are there any OOTB features in AEM Forms that would simplify this implementation? Has anyone implemented a similar pattern?

We are in the process of migrating our large and complex site from AEM as cloud service to EDS. One thing we wanted to check is if we can serve our content from localhost instead of relying on a cloud instance since we have multiple developers doing lot of POC's and research stories. Is it possible to mount localhost in fstab.yaml or any other means of having local content for EDS?  

Hi,When moving pages in AEM as a Cloud Service, admin users can move without any workflow, but other users (with full permissions) trigger the "Request to Complete Move Operation" workflow, which fails with:java.lang.NullPointerExceptionPermissions provided: read, write, modify, delete, replicate.Why does the workflow trigger only for non-admins, and what could cause this NPE?How can we prevent the workflow from triggering for fully privileged users?Thanks!

Trying to compile a app build on AEM 6.3 created with old archetype template. Initially it showing error for <groupId>com.day.jcr.vault</groupId><artifactId>content-package-maven-plugin</artifactId> since the version was 0.5.1 so I updated it to 1.0.4 but now it show error on <packaging> tag of application module pom on below section. <artifactId>myapp.apps</artifactId><packaging>content-package</packaging><name>myapp - Apps</name><description>apps package for myapp</description> When I hover over the  <packaging> tag below description in VSCode IDE.<packaging>The type of artifact this project produces, for example jar war ear pom.

Hi everyone,I’m facing an issue with one of our Content Fragment Models in AEM where a few text fields were intentionally disabled using disabled=true and renderReadOnly=false at the field node level under /conf/<project>/settings/dam/cfm/models/<model-name>/jcr:content/model/cq:dialog/content/items/textfield. In the old Content Fragment Editor (Granite UI), these fields appear correctly disabled and are not editable, but after moving to the new Content Fragment Editor (which is React-based and built on Adobe React Spectrum), the same fields appear editable and authors are able to modify them. It seems the new editor doesn’t respect the traditional disabled or renderReadOnly properties that used to work in the old UI. Could someone please guide me on how to make these fields appear disabled or read-only in the new React Spectrum–based Content Fragment Editor? Any official documentation or best practice would be really helpful. Thanks,Abhishek A.

Hello All,  Is it possible to get Adobe Sandbox or AEM Cloud Service SDK download for local development, i tried following the Adobe documentation but could not download SDK as it requires an approved Adobe account.any suggestion here? Thank you,Rite18

Hi all,I am not able to open the admin console in da.live, even after I have logged in adobe via google(I use the same with sandbox). After going through the documentation, I came to know I need a adobe ID (aka IMS) for this purpose. Does anyone know how can I generate the adobe ID or IMS. We do have a sandbox also available in AEMaaCS, is it related to that?  I am just doing a POC on content protection.Thanks

We need to update the DITA-OT that is included with AEM Guides to get a newer version of FOP. I have managed to migrate our custom PDF plugins to the new OT (4.3.4), but the AEM Sites output is not working. The files are processed properly by the DITA-OT, but are not getting handed over to Guides to create the site. I notice differences in the log output when publishing with different DITA-OT versions. I need a few hints on how to get the job-helper.xsl working in the newer DITA-OT. Working DITA-OT:copy-flag-check:copy-flag:[job-helper] Processing /opt/aem/launcher/profiles/ditamaps/ditamap15676432144876924428/temp/temp20251105141348914/.job.xml to /opt/aem/launcher/profiles/ditamaps/ditamap15676432144876924428/temp/temp20251105141348914/flagimage.list[job-helper] Loading stylesheet /opt/aem/launcher/profiles/ditaot--3922c171-076c-7dd5-4b4b-9b4f895be1bd/DITA-OT/plugins/org.dita.base/xsl/job-helper.xsl New DITA-OT:copy-flag-check: copy-flag: Thanks,-Huntley
