Adobe Experience Manager Assets

Hi, I recently took over a 6.5 AEM DAM with thousands of images on it. I have been tasked to audit the assets - keep relevant, delete / archive old and unreferenced.I do not have coding / developer access so will strictly use interface only. Is there someone who went through similar task and can share what they did? Here is what I think I will do:- Export folder CSVs. Which selective properties should I be choosing - Date Created, Date Uploaded, Referenced By (does CSV include this?)?- Then in Excel sort by Referenced and not Referenced, then sort by date created and uploaded. - Review images older than 5yrs and decide - keep or purge. This will be hard because I will have to visit each image individually. Unless - Is there a way I can tell the AEM through CSV which assets to purge? I could do that in bulk. Or is there a better way?  Many thanks 

Hey, Wondering if there is a simple, end user friendly solution (not having to write a 5 page code, or any at all) to change the default folder thumbnails look. It is clear how to change the thumbnail, so lets skip that part. Currently all thumbnails are covered in black shade that takes 70% of the thumbnail image. What's the point of having a thumbnail feature if it is covered with black or white shade? It makes no sense... This option neither shows the thumbnail, nor makes it easy to read the folder title due to transparency in the shade. Same applies to the collections... images with people have their faces covered by white shade. See attached for reference. AEM DAM 6.5 needs a bit of an aesthetic revamp. Many thanks 

Issue: Auto publishing of Remote DAM assets/Connected Assets from Sites after updating the assets in Remote DAM In AEMaaCS , have both AEM Sites and Assets program separately and configured connected assets for Assets SYNC.  When author updates assets in AEM assets program there is a sync operations runs in AEM sites for every 5 minutes (as per adobe) and updated the corresponding assets in AEM sites but won’t publish to the website. Looking for assets to be auto publish once the SYNC gets completed. I tried following optionsWorkflow Launcher to activate the assets which runs multiple workflows and keep on runningAuto publish workflows in Assets folder properties which runs only if the assets get modified in the AEM sites instance (i.e. Locally modified) not working if the assets modified in AEM Remote DAM assets.

Hi all, I'm looking to understand further details on the AEM Digital Librarian certification exam:Once I register for the exam, how soon do I need to take it?Is this open book/open note?Also, are there any additional resources for prepping for this exam? I've been working with AEM for a year and I've taken the two relevant Learning Path courses. I've also done the practice test for this credential.  Any other advice or recommendations is welcome. Thank you!

I wonder if there is a way to add an asset to a Batch Set Preset but instead of matching a naming convention, to match it based on a metadata property. Let's say that I have Assets with a metadata property which is an array of Strings: jcr:content/metadata/dam:myCodes And when I upload images that has this metadata property with values:  my_testing_asset_one.png 3025070-100 7002011-369 6036221-045   my_testing_asset_two.jpeg 3025070-100   my_testing_asset_three.tif 7002011-369 5234620-136  It gets assigned to a Batch Set per one of myCode, and each site in Scene7 as follows will display: https://company.scene7.com/is/image/projectName/3025070-100_is?req=imagesetprojectName/my_testing_asset_one, projectName/my_testing_asset_two https://company.scene7.com/is/image/projectName/7002011-369_is?req=imagesetprojectName/my_testing_asset_one, projectName/my_testing_asset_three https://company.sce

 Verify that there are no special Latin characters when importing asset metadata.Select the UTF-8 Unicode type if the metadata is stored in Excel and you intend to save it as a CSV.Consider exporting metadata for specific custom properties only.Ensure that the custom namespace is correctly registered, as builds in CM will fail otherwise.Make sure an index is created for the custom properties.Always take a copy of the damAssetLucene index from the same version of production or the latest version to create a custom index; failing to do so will result in a build failure in CM.Renaming is not supported in Azure Storage; assets must be recreated, so avoid modifying assets in Azure Storage.Always enable duplicate detection, though it only applies to the first 100 assets.Keep the number of search filters limited, as using too many fields in the request header can overflow it and cause the search to fail. Depending on the situation, exceeding the limit may lead to Fastly closing the clien

Hi, I am currently facing an issue with the migration of asset metadata from one aem instance to another aem instance using the App Builder. While i have successfully able to migrate the asset and their metadata from one aem instance to another. I have noticed that the metadata values are being copied to the jcr:content node instead of correct location under jcr:content/metadata. It causing, where not able to see the values of the metadata fields in the asset properties. Also just noticed that dc:title is getting copied to jcr:title under jcr:content. Below is the piece of code i am using to update metadata. Please let me know how i can correct and solve the issue.// Update the asset metadata in target AEM targetAemUrl, accessToken2, targetFolderPath, asset, metadata, loggerasync function updateAssetMetadata(targetAemUrl, accessToken2, targetFolderPath, assetName, metadata, logger, retryCount = 3) {const updateUrl = `${targetAemUrl}/api/assets/${targetFolderPath}/${assetName}

Hi, I want to run a report of assets in a folder with custom columns for the metadata properties dam:sha1{{String}} and xmpMM:DocumentID{{String}}. I can see these columns and their values when I export all metadata of a folder, but due to a large volume of assets I don't want to export all metadata. What would I enter into the 'Property to Map' field to get these values in my report?Thanks!

Hello - Is anyone else having issues with the OOTB tag merge/move function in AEM?When we merge/move a tag, it will merge, but it will not stay in the asset properties after we add the new tag to an asset via the tag field. This is happening in dev and prod. (Access isn't part of the issue.)

I searched for the term "contrary" in reference implementation in the search bar and only got a PDF. I was expecting both PDF and Word doc to show as search results as both had the same text and content. I am not sure if ASC supports search based on text/contents within the document. Can someone confirm if full-text content search within docs is supported in ASC?https://aem.enablementadobe.com/content/asset-share-commons/en/light.html?fulltext=contrary&1_group.propertyvalues.property=.%2Fjcr%3Acontent%2Fmetadata%2Fdc%3Aformat&1_group.propertyvalues.operation=equals&1_group.propertyvalues.1_values=application%2Fvnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.wordprocessingml.document%2Capplication%2Fpdf%2Ctext%2Fplain&orderby=%40jcr%3Acontent%2Fjcr%3AlastModified&orderby.sort=desc&layout=card&p.offset=0&p.limit=1 

Hi Team,Is there any way to fix the position for a custom asset toolbar button. Kindly suggest.Thanks in advance! 

There is an issue in AEM DAM where multiple assets are sharing the same dam:sha1 value, despite being distinct files. These assets were uploaded via a different server, and when downloaded, they have a file size of 0 KB and most of them has status: Error [Upload failed]. AEM version: 6.5 What could be the cause of these assets having the same dam:sha1 value, and how can this issue be resolved?Thanks.

Is it possible to have folders show a numeric value/count on how many assets are within that folder? For example, we have a lot of folders that are currently empty however it isn't possible for a user to know that unless they click into the folder. We may just delete these folders for now if we can't show a numeric value/count on the folder level. 

While viewing assets in list view, we would like to add column options, like metadata from Workfront and tags. Is it possible to edit what columns show? See screen shot.  

Hello there! Is there a way to run AEM SDK (Cloud) locally without the AEM Sites capabilities, booting it with features supported on a AEM Assets-only instance. Thanks

Can I upload HTML projects that comprise more than one file to my AEM website? I want to upload SCORM files, which are HTML at the core, but include font, images, etc. for learning courses. We're not ready to use Adobe Learning Manager nor do we need Adobe Connect at this point.

Hello AllWe have a business problem. Before the problem let me set the context. We use on-prem AEM 6.5 and also AEM Assets as a DAM. Over last 3 years, business and product groups have been using DAM without following much best practice around Metadata. Also, as product portfolio like models names, technical specs keeps on changing, new metadata fields become more important to be included. Also, we have not used Alt+Text field which is causing issues in SEO and ADA compliance. Is there a standard method using ACS tools for Asset Retagging? I understand for folder level metadata schema, only the new assets inherit the schema and not legacy assets. These assets are live on production site. We want to have a nifty solution with automation and hardly any manual effort. 

Hi ,  When we are authoring images on a dynamic media component they are appearing stretched and pixelated.

I am trying to get a list of all live URLs using ACS common report feature. For Page Report for a site, what should be the path field?   

Does anyone know if Adobe has plans to make AEM Assets understand InCopy files? I'd love to see Asset Link for InCopy, as well as for AEM Assets to understand the file format and prompt the user to update the link to an InCopy file that's been modified and placed back in AEM Assets. Currently if you modify a photo or Illustrator file that resides on AEM Assets and re-open an InDesign file that has a link to that asset, ID prompts you to refresh the link and you can see the changed asset in your ID file. This same workflow does NOT work with InCopy files. You CAN link to an icml file on AEM Assets, but you can't do the same with icma files. And if you DO link to an icml file on AEM Assets, it appears to break the functionality of it being an InCopy file, so the little icon is removed from the text frame. Updating the icml file on AEM Assets doesn't prompt InDesign file to refresh it. As soon as I relink to a local icml file, it refreshes and adds the little icon back to the text

Hi,We have a requirement to do full text search while we search from the AEM Assets Search ConsoleExample: Suppose I search with key word "apple" it would result me 10 assets, ifI search with key word "mango" it would result me 10 assets.If i search with "apple mango" it is resulting 0 assets but it should result 20 assets.How to perform this using OOTB features Regards,Devi  @arunpatidar @estebanbustamante 

Can someone please explain the functionality and intention of the Adjust and Republish check boxes when you go to move an asset in the Assets view?I can't find documentation that defines them. Based on what I can cobble together on my own using the discussion boards, it looks like Adjust would update any links that reference the asset. Is this correct? If you didn't check the box, what happens? Does it impact published links? Thanks! 

Currently we like to achieve the following with our AEM and Dynamic Media:   We upload a PDF into the AEM, it is getting synced to DynamicMedia(DM) and published. In the DM-Classic Windows App I can get the AssetFile-URL that opens the PDF in the browser if opened.   But from AEM perspective we like to achieve that our users are able to get the same URL or any kind of view for that PDF. Currently we check the renditions view of the assets for the dynamic renditions, we got a image-preset but if you follow that URL you only get page-1 of that PDF as image. But we would like to get the pdf or at least all pages as image of that document.   Any ideas how to achieve that? Do I achieve that by configuration of the AEM / Dynamic Media, it it a special image-preset or viewer that I need? Its important that the url is accessable by a AEM-User.
