How to use the AEM Asset Selector in a dialog?

As per document Asset Selector ,   http://localhost:4502/aem/assetpicker.html?dialog=true  Use these parameters to open the asset selector as Granite Dialog. This option is only applicable when you launch the asset selector through Granite Path Field, and configure it as pickerSrc URL.

I tried the following code in the dialog XML:

<image
   jcr:primaryType="nt:unstructured"
   sling:resourceType="granite/ui/components/coral/foundation/form/pathfield"
   name="./videoThumbnail"
   pickerSrc="/aem/assetpicker.html?dialog=true"

   mimeType="image"
   rootPath="/content/dam"/>

The pathfield above does not seems to use the alternative picker specified by the pickerSrcand behaves like a standard pathfield.

Also tried adding the extra URL parameters as specified in the pathfield docs but that made no change.

Please provide ur inputs how to configure assetpicker in dialog.

Regards,

Kalyan.

        Hi @arunpatidar 

        Above solution is not working for me.

        But it works with below solution : https://stackoverflow.com/questions/51366697/how-to-use-the-aem-asset-selector-in-a-coral3-dialog

         

        One issue here is , let's say I have selected one image at path /content/dam/xyz/steps/image1.png

        and now if I click on the pathfiled it will again take me to /content/dam/xyz instead of image path .

         

        @arunpatidar could you please let us know where can i find the tutorial or any article regarding coral 3 granite framework which are helpfull for dialog customization. How did you learn.

        Thanks

              use /libs/dam/gui/content/assetselector/jcr:content/body/items/assetselector.html?dialog=true

              but still there is a bug, it will not allow selecting assets from assets selector.

              you can log a daycare ticket.

                  Hi @alexander_prikhodko 
                  Not sure if user reported the issue or not. I did not reported anything though.

                      It does works if you'll be using below path for pickerSrc

                      /libs/dam/gui/content/assetselector/jcr:content/body/items/assetselector.html?dialog=true&assettype=images&root=/content/dam/we-retail/en/activities
