Hi,We have a requirement, where we upload a image on the publisher, and the same should reflect in author also.When raised a Adobe support ticket for the same, this is the reply we got."I would like to inform you that unfortunately reverse replication (from Publish to Author) is not supported out‑of‑the‑box in AEM as a Cloud Service. -This is a fundamental architectural change: unlike on‑premise and Managed Services deployments, AEM Cloud Service does not support the traditional reverse replication agents. The cloud model expects content to be authored at the Author instance and then pushed (forward replication) to the Publishers.Although Sling Content Distribution (SCD) is available for content transfer, the Sync Distribution configuration meant to mimic reverse replication is not feasible in AEM as a Cloud Service. -Because the traditional reverse replication mechanism is absent."Is there any workaround to achieve this functionality?

We're running AEM 6.5.19. We would prefer not to use workflow approval inbox/email chains and instead rely solely on content permissions. However, some of our editors are seemingly subject to certain approval workflows when they attempt to replicate, edit, move, or delete content. For example, I might have full permissions on a node (except for edit acl), yet if I attempt to replicate this page, an approval workflow winds up in the admin user's inbox. We've been deleting these workflows but are worried user's requests wind up in a workflow black hole of sorts. The user may be expecting someone to act on the request.We would prefer for a user who does not have the correct permission on a node to be unable to take the action. We do not want to trigger a workflow that winds up in the admin user's inbox. We would prefer that the action just not be possible for a user without the corresponding permission. In a different case, some of our users seem not to

when I worked on a AEM setup usng managed services, Cloudfront inserts extra response header that will tell me if the page is getting served from CDN or from origin.Because it managed service, I can login to the dispatcher and I can manually check if the page is already cache in the dispatcher or needs to be fetched from the publisher.How can I do both of these on AEMaaCS?

Hi team, I've encountered an error while using Adaptive form fragment (with core component).

Rename/Move an AEM Asset programmatically and Update References  by Aanchal Sikka   Overview Renaming or moving assets in AEM while keeping all references intact is a common challenge for developers. Basic APIs like AssetManager.moveAsset() can rename or relocate assets but do not update references across your site, often leading to broken links. This blog breaks down two approaches: Using AssetManager.moveAsset() for simple moves without reference updates. Alternate way with CopyMoveCommandBuilder, which renames assets and automatically updates all references, ensuring content consistency. The blog includes sample servlet code demonstrating how to implement the CopyMoveCommandBuilder approach.  Link to blog: https://techrevel.blog/2025/10/07/rename-move-an-aem-asset-programmatically-and-update-references/    Q&A Please use this thread to ask questions relating to this article

Hi Team, Initially, the code worked as expected without using the embed property, while running on AMS AEM 6.5 (exact service pack version unknown). We are using the org.apache.sling.servlet-helpers dependency, which is correctly declared in the pom.xml. However, we suddenly encountered an issue with the target sync functionality. Upon debugging, we discovered that the servlet-helpers JAR was missing. The JAR is not visible in the AEM console or listed among the active bundles. To resolve this, we applied the embed property to include the JAR under the /apps folder. Unfortunately, this workaround has led to Sonar issues related to the dependency. We are currently using AEM version 6.5.21.  The servlet-helpers JAR is available in AEM as a Cloud Service, but it appears to be missing in AEM 6.5. We're unsure whether it was replaced or bundled within another JAR. Is it acceptable to manually install the JAR via the AEM console under bundles, or is there a recommended way to

so I have initially run the publisher using this command (I'm on Linux using JDK11)java -jar aem-publish-p4503.jarI installed the content and code packages and I can browser the custom pages without any issues. My problem started after I restarted my PC.  To start AEM publish I triedjava -jar aem-publish-p4503.jarcrx-quickstart/bin/start (I had to change the port number as the default is 4502)I tried to browser localhost:4503, but all I get is a 404. I then checked error.log and I don't see any new entries. I encountered something similar when I setup author the first time and the fix was to delete./crx-quickstart/launchpad/config/org/apache/sling/jcr/repoinit/RepositoryInitializer*.configI tried the same trick in my publisher but it does not work. If I start from the beginning again (rm -fr crx-quickstart), AEM will start working again. Any ideas on how to fix or perhaps a workaround?

Hello,   We are currently on AEM 6.5 and planning Cloud Migration. Noticed that new Cloud onboardings are based on Java 21.   So, if we move to Cloud directly, we would not have Managed Services support for Java 21 migration.   Wondering if we should move Java 21 with 6.5 LTS and then plan for Cloud. Any suggestions? Specially for Assets with Asset Share   Any feedback on challenges faced in Java 21 migration? 

  We had a great session at our Chicago office as we hosted the AEM Midwest Chapter's 9th meeting in the community! Held last Thursday, 9/18, we enjoyed deep-dish pizza (a real Chicago treat!) and beverages and had a great discussion with other partners on a topic that everyone's talking about: AI.    Although I was the main speaker that brought the topics, there were plenty of questions from our attendees including Eric from Huge, Jake from Bounteous, and Celinah from Perficient. That made the discussion both collaborative and informative, which is exactly what we're trying to achieve with these meetings.   👉A couple of Highlights from what we discussed: Everyone is eager to explore the possibilities of using Agentic AI, particularly with Sites Optimizer and LLM Optimizer Everyone has a wish-list of items they'd like to see incorporated into practical use of AI Assistants in Cloud Manager Generative AI is a super-cool feature, and seeing it incorporated

I need expert input - we develop multipage court forms that on the last page have three buttons, Print, Save, and Clear. These buttons are in the footer of a master page. We have them set to Visible (Screen Only), but they show up in print. We don't want them to. Must we move them to content pages to achieve this?Thanks!

Hey Adobe community, With AEM 6.5 heading towards End of Life (core support ends Feb 2027, extended support Feb 2028), a lot of us are asking: What’s next? Should we stick with Long-Term Support (LTS) or take the leap to AEM Cloud? Let’s dig into the real questions: Why Upgrade?Is it just about staying supported, or are there real benefits to moving forward? LTS vs. Cloud: Pros and ConsWhat’s working for you with LTS? What’s tempting about Cloud? Any pain points or unexpected wins? Who Should Go Where?Are there certain teams, industries, or use cases that make more sense for LTS or Cloud? How do you decide? End-State Business ValueWhat does success look like after the upgrade or migration? How do you measure the impact on your business or clients? Share your experiences, opinions, and advice—whether you’re deep in migration planning or just starting to think about it. Let’s help each other figure out the smartest path forward!

Migration to the New Content Fragment Editor in AEMaaCS  by @daniel-strmecki   Introduction Content fragments (CF) in AEM allow authors to design, create, and publish page-independent content without visual design and/or layout. Therefore, authors can use them to prepare content that can be reused in multiple locations and channels, which is ideal for headless delivery or reuse across pages. The CF reference AEM core component enables simple referencing and using the CF data on a page, while GraphQL and/or REST APIs enable headless content delivery. The new CF editor was recently introduced by Adobe to enhance the authoring experience for structured content. It can be accessed from the new CF console and offers a few interesting new features: Tree navigation feature with a hierarchical view of the CFs structure to allow authors to easily navigate and edit CFs efficiently Improved authoring interface with features such as auto-save and breadcrumbs for navigating ba

After purchasing Adobe’s Digital Asset Management solution, metadata is the most critical aspect while starting your asset management journey. Managing metadata gets completely out of the control of the administrators once the assets are distributed to the users. Effective asset metadata ensures better search, which is the ultimate destination for any DAM tool.Here are the recommended steps that you must execute before starting to migrate your assets to AEM: Step 1: How would you filter the assets that exist in the repository? Answer this question and create the list of fields that you need.Think about your users on how they will search assets that exist in the repository and then work backward to create such properties for your assets. Step 2: Revisit all existing properties and eliminate redundant onesLook for properties that seem irrelevant or duplicates of the existing properties and remove them from the list of required properties for Adobe’s DAM. Step 3: Segregate the properties

I have a requirement for creating multiple renditions for asset on upload. Hence, I have modified the OOTB DAM Update Asset Workflow to create multiple web renditions. The workflow runs fine on the assets. I was trying to use AEM ACS Commons Bulk Workflow Manger to run the workflow on the existing assets which are in millions. The issue I am facing is while using the Bulk Workflow Manager, selecting Bulk Workflow Runner > AEM Workflow, the renditions gets created properly. Whereas on selecting Bulk Workflow Manager > Synthetic (Single Threaded) or Synthetic (Multiple Threaded), the renditions doesn't get created properly although the Workflow execution is completed for all the assets. To replicate the issue:AEM Version: 6.5.20ACS AEM Commons: 6.2.0 / 6.5.0 (Tested with both versions) 1. Add web rendition creation step in DAM Update Workflow2. Make the DAM Update Workflow as NON-TRANSIENT (To have the logs track on workflow execution)2. Use ACS AEM Commons, Bulk Workflow

How to Automate AEM Offline Revision Cleanupby @giuseppebaglio  Dear AEM Community, I'd like to share my recently published article exploring how to transform the critical but tedious process of AEM Offline Revision Cleanup into an automated, one-command operation. IntroductionAEM's Oak repository eventually suffers from performance issues as unused data accumulates. My article presents a Bash script that transforms the tedious manual cleanup process into a single-command operation with built-in safety checks. This automation approach not only saves time but also reduces human error risk during critical maintenance operations. Key Points-  A powerful Bash script that automates AEM Offline Revision Cleanup with built-in safety checks.-  More than just a wrapper for oak-run.jar—it includes pre-flight checks, path validation, interactive prompts, and atomic operations.-  Features robust argument parsing, a streamlined Oak command engine, and safegua
