Hi,

We are using AEM 6.5 on prem. I would like to know if there is a way to find out the number clicks over a period of time on published assets in the DAM?

Thanks.

If the image is wrapped in an anchor tag and hosted in AEM DAM, AEM itself cannot count the click.

Because the click happens in the email client. The link needs to point at a tracking redirect (email provider link tracking or a custom endpoint) that logs the click and then redirects to the AEM asset URL.

Where do these click occur? A published web page? The platform where the clicks occur would need to capture this and report back. AEM does have some logging options, for this kind of thing, but they are usually disabled as I’m told they become a resource drain on the system.

These clicks occur in external emails. They are not on an AEM published web page.

Hi @anasustic ,

Are above answers helpful? Is yes pls share the solution back with community so that everyone else learn from it.

In my view , it all boils down to Adobe analytics tracking and then configure Adobe analytics into aem as Asset insights so that you know impressions, clicks etc with aem assets at each asset level.
