Is It possible to call a webservice after an asset is uploaded with all metadata?

Hi community,

 

I'd like to know if it is possible to call a webservice after an asset is uploaded to a folder with all metadata as payload.

 

Thanks in advance for your help.

There are multiple options:

1. Custom workflow is triggered by dam-authors manually, once the asset is ready.

2. If an asset is published once its ready, then a custom Transport handler can publish the asset info to webservice, while publishing the asset in parallel to AEM publish. https://www.dev-eth0.de/2017/01/08/aem_transport_handler/

3. Create an additional metadata, to define the state of an asset (ready/not-ready). Once all metadata is in, update the value of this metadata to ready. This event can then be captured and info can be sent out to webservice.

    Consider, writing a Custom Workflow with a Process step, which calls the required webservice with Asset as payload. Metadata can be extracted in custom Process before calling the WebService.

    Workflow can be triggered with a Workflow Launcher, set for the folder path and EventType as Node Created and NodeType as dam:Asset.
    Launcher can also be written to trigger a workflow, based on any metadata property.
    Refer below link for extracting Asset metadata:
