how to identify the user that uploads a file

Hello

 I'd like to know who uploaded a file.  Can I add a search criteria in the search forms?  Or extract it in a report?  If so what is the correct node to use to do so?

Hi @sos  you can just check the timeline of the asset (see snapshot below). It lists jcr:created and jcr:createdBy properties of the asset.

 

For bulk viewing , use OOTB Asset report.

Hi @sos,

Information about asset user who uploads the assets is represented by jcr:createdBy property stored under dam:Asset node.

You can use OOTB Assets Report:

  1. Open /mnt/overlay/dam/gui/content/reports/reportlist.html
  2. Select Create
  3. Choose Upload report
  4. Fill all the data like title, date range, path etc
  5. Add custom column that will show jcr:createdBy value
  6. Click create and wait for report generation to be completed.

You can browse report directly on AEM or download results.
