Adobe Experience Manager

Hi everyone,I am using the Groovy Console in AEM to update a custom property demo:status to "archieved" for all pages under /content/demo/en/archive that have a cq:template of myproject/components/page/article.Here is the script: def rootPath = "/content/my-site/en/archive"def resourceResolver = resourceResolverFactory.getServiceResourceResolver(null)def session = resourceResolver.adaptTo(Session)def query = "SELECT * FROM [cq:Page] AS s WHERE ISDESCENDANTNODE([${rootPath}]) AND s.[cq:template] = 'myproject/components/page/article'"def result = session.workspace.queryManager.createQuery(query, "JCR-SQL2").execute()result.nodes.each { node ->def contentNode = node.getNode("jcr:content")contentNode.setProperty("myProject:status", "archived")println "Updated: ${node.path}"}session.save() But I keep getting errors: javax.jcr.PathNotFoundException: jcr:content Can someone help me understand what’s wrong here? 

This is my first time to take AEM DEVELOPER PROFESSIONAL CERTIFICATION exam. I joined the exam call via Zoom meeting where the proctor from Examity team frequently mentioned that I have poor connection even though changed different networks. So I asked her is there a chance that I can reschedule my exam and she said yes you can and ended the exam test. But when I went to portal to reschedule it says that I need to pay for rescheduling which I am not aware and not told by the proctor. I have contacted support@examity.com they mentioned that we only monitor the exam and we don't have access to reschedule this point was not clearly mentioned by the proctor in the zoom meeting. I have contacted certif@adobe.com and they are mentioning that I haven't appeared for the exam on time. So as per their policy I need to make new appointment for exam by paying. I was lost again here. Despite the efforts  contacting them for a possible solution for my issue I have been redirecting to pay a

Has anyone attempted to add 1,000+ Tags to a single Namespace within the Tagging Taxonomy? I have been told by Support that while there is not a technical limit, with more data we may see slower load times or less responsive UI components because of the extra data being processed. Looking to see if anyone has successfully loaded a large set of Tags in AEM and not had any issues. Note: We are working in AEM as a Cloud Service.

We have a relatively large DAM, and we want to unpublish assets as soon as they expire. Is there any OOTB functionality for this? Or if not, what would be the best approach? My first guess is creating a workflow, but not sure what the trigger would be.Appreciate any help, thanks!

Hi Team,I am upgrading AEM service pack to 22 and facing a weird issue -Currently, AEM is running on service pack 6 and it is on-premise software. I have perfromed an upgrade to the latest pack 22.After the upgrade, few vanity URLs are redirecting to 404 while accessing via dispatcher URL. Few existing vanity URLs are working fine.What I have checked already?Vanity URLs are getting resolved properly in AEM instance (system/console/jcrresolverNo duplicate pages exists with same vanity pathNewly created pages works perfectly fine with vanity URLOld pages (where issue is there), when i changed the vanity path from "test-vanity" to "test-vanity-1", i can see that the URLs are getting changed when i check on dispatcher using URL (libs/granite/dispatcher/content/vanityUrls.html) Any idea/pointers, I can check further! Thanks for going through my query!

Speed up Local Development in Multi-module AEM Projectsby @daniel-strmecki IntroductionDeveloping and testing in Adobe Experience Manager (AEM) can be a time-consuming process, especially in large, multi-module projects with multiple teams working in parallel. If every small change requires a full Maven build and deployment, then the development cycle will dramatically slow down as the project grows.In this article, we’ll explore a few tools and commands that can supercharge your local development workflow. By reducing build times and enabling instant file synchronization, these tools help AEM developers focus on writing code instead of waiting for deployments. Whether you're building components, refining styles, or optimizing backend logic, these techniques can save you minutes, if not hours, every day. Key PointsFor standard CI/CD environments like GitHub Actions, a standard, full Maven build is still recommended. Here is why:Standard Maven is pre-installed in most CI/

Custom Run Modes in AEM as a Cloud Service   by Mahedi Sabuj Overview 𝐌𝐢𝐠𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐟𝐫𝐨𝐦 𝐀𝐄𝐌 6.5 𝐭𝐨 𝐀𝐄𝐌 𝐚𝐬 𝐚 𝐂𝐥𝐨𝐮𝐝 𝐒𝐞𝐫𝐯𝐢𝐜𝐞 (𝐀𝐄𝐌𝐚𝐚𝐂𝐒)? One of the key considerations is how to handle custom run modes!AEMaaCS comes with predefined run modes — 𝐫𝐝𝐞, 𝐝𝐞𝐯, 𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐠𝐞 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐝 — but what if you need additional ones, like UAT?

Custom domain name with customer-managed CDN using Edge Key — AEMaaCS   by Imran Khan Overview Integrate custom domain name to an AEM as a Cloud Service website using CDE Edge Key.   As part of this blog we will configure and integrate custom domain name(client managed) to an AEM as a Cloud Service website using customer managed option using Adobe Cloud Manager. A Customer Managed CDN (Content Delivery Network) is a setup in which the customer — either an organization or an individual user — assumes full responsibility for configuring, operating, and maintaining the CDN infrastructure, rather than depending entirely on a fully managed service such as Cloudflare, Akamai, or AWS CloudFront. The X-AEM-Edge-Key is an HTTP header used by the Adobe CDN to validate requests originating from a Customer-Managed CDN. Overall Process: The AEM development team generates a CDN Edge Key and configures it in the Adobe Cloud Manager environment. Incoming requests from a Custome

SlingInternalRequest: A Cleaner Way to Reuse AEM Servlets with Internal API Access by Aanchal Sikka Overview When building features in Adobe Experience Manager (AEM), there are times you need to leverage servlet logic that already exists—especially when it interacts with internal AEM APIs not available through public interfaces. For example, I recently needed to programmatically create Live Copies for assets. AEM doesn’t expose public Java APIs for this directly, but the WCMCommand Servlet performs this exact action behind the scenes. Instead of reinventing the wheel or making a fragile external HTTP call, I used SlingInternalRequest API to invoke the servlet internally   For details, please visit https://techrevel.blog/2025/07/08/slinginternalrequest-a-cleaner-way-to-reuse-aem-servlets-with-internal-api-access/ Q&A Please use this thread to ask questions relating to this article

Hey, I use the basics of the Designer at work to customize forms. No I had the task to create a complete new from, but it has read-only access, with the message that you can only print a filled in copy but can't save it. My question is: how can I remove this protection from my form? Sorry if this is a simple question and if I didn't gave you enough information. Please ask if you need more.PS: I'm from Germany so is kind of hard to describe the problem with the right technical terms.

Hello AEM Guides Community,I’m new to AEM Guides and working on creating an aggregated document that includes multiple languages in a single PDF output. My main document contains a front page (cover) and then multiple languages each with it's own translated TOC.I want the PDF to show:The front page first,Then for each language submap, a Table of Contents for just that submap,Followed by the actual content of that language submap.What is the recommended way to structure the map and customize the native PDF template to achieve this aggregated, multilingual document with per-submap TOCs?Are there best practices or example templates you can share?Thanks so much for your help!

Custom Domain Appearing in Publisher URLs (ETC Mapping?) In AEM as a Cloud Service (AEMaaCS) setup, I'm noticing that the shortened publisher URLs are showing the ETC-mapped custom domain instead of the default domain (publisher URL).Is this the expected behavior for AEMaaCS publishers when domain mapping is configured?If not, could someone guide me on how to resolve or override this behavior?Any insights or documentation references would be greatly appreciated.

Hi everyone,I'm trying to download a large asset (around 40GB) from Adobe Experience Cloud. However, after downloading approximately 1GB, the process fails with a "connection lost" error — even though my internet connection remains stable and uninterrupted. I’ve tested this on both Safari and Chrome, and the issue persists in both browsers.I also tried using download managers (such as IDM and Free Download Manager), but they either fail to capture the link properly or still encounter the same interruption.Is there a recommended method for downloading large files from Adobe Experience Cloud?Would using a desktop application like Adobe Bridge help in this situation?Alternatively, is it possible to split the asset into smaller parts for easier download?I'd really appreciate any insights or suggestions from those who’ve experienced a similar issue.Thanks in advance!

Hi All,I wanted to check if the following actions can be performed for a large volume of assets in AEM DAM, and what possible methods or tools (APIs, GenAI, scripts, etc.) we can use to achieve them:Bulk Rename Assets – Is there a way to change file names in bulk, either through AEM APIs, scripts, or using GenAI-based logic (e.g., metadata-driven naming)?Reorganize Folder Structure – Can we move assets across folders or restructure the DAM in bulk through automation?Identify Duplicate Assets – Is there a reliable way to detect and report duplicate assets (based on content, metadata, checksum, etc.)?Appreciate your inputs on what's feasible within AEM's native capabilities or if any custom approach is recommended. Best regards,

When searching in AEM Guides (on-prem, v4.6, UUID) for a specific file name GUID, the result returns every instance that GUID is conref-ed to in addition to the master file we are searching for. Is there a way to separate the search results into a list of file names/titles using the search phrase AND then into a list of files where the search phrase appears within the content? For example, when searching within our repository for file name GUID-B2A00D10-2503-48FA-928C-8D84F08CBA0F, 400+ results appear because this was one of our master files that many other topics conref to. The existing filters do not allow for a separation of file name/GUID vs content within a file. Is that possibly a future feature? Can the filters be customized? (I saw an answer from 7/2/25 that mentioned filters may be customizable in version 5.1 or whatever the Q3 2025 release is going to be.)

Hi all,I am trying to add a custom HTTP response header from the dispatcher level in an AEM as a Cloud Service (AEMaaCS) setup.I want this header to be included in responses served by Dispatcher for tracking/debugging purposes.What’s the best way to do this in AEMaaCS with Dispatcher configuration?I have tried editing the dispatcher.yaml but I’m not seeing the header added. Is there a specific file or directive I need to update? And are there any restrictions in AEMaaCS when adding custom headers?Thanks in advance!

We are trying to make better use of the core components, but we did notice they (Image V3) have some weird quirksNormally when you have a container component and place sub components inside of that grid, this is reflected in the Content Treee.g.SectionComponent---> GridComponent-------> GridItemComponentHowever in this case we would have a GridImageItemComponentBut it shows up like this in the Content TreeSectionComponent---> GridComponent-------> GridItemComponentGridImageItemComponentWe would have expected this component to be visible like that:SectionComponent---> GridComponent-------> GridItemComponent-------> GridImageItemComponentWe downloaded the source of the v3 image component, but could not find anything weird in the files that might caused this.Do you guys know why this is happening, what would we need to overlay to make the core image component behave similar as the other components when dealing with the Content Tree view within the AEM editor.Thank you
