Adobe Experience Manager Assets

We have a very simple setup, an email asset with one module containing dynamic content set up in the legacy email editor. We get the email content using https://{{endpoint}}/rest/asset/v1/email/{{id}}/content.json and it returns a body similar to this {   "success": true,   "errors": [],   "requestId": "4202#19ee08c5295",   "warnings": [],   "result": [       {           "htmlId": "foobar2026",           "value": "RVMtZm9vYmFyMjAyNg==",           "contentType": "DynamicContent",           "isLocked": false       }   ]} However, if we attempt anything in the email DynamicContent whether it’s a GET or POST using either of these endpoints https://{{endpoint}}/rest/asset/v1/email/{{id}}/dynamicContent/{{htmlId}}.json where the htmlId is the one returned by the first email content endpoint, we get a no assets found response. {   "success": true,   "errors": [],   "requestId": "e1d4#19ee08ffc81",   "warnings": [       "No assets found for the given search criteria."   ]} Can you help clarify

Hello,Once content is uploaded in Content Hub it pushes the assets to the Hydrated-assets folder in Assets.With each upload in a new folder and the naming convention does not follow a clear structure. Can this be configured?Thanks

Hello, I have just started working with AEM for a client which has set up and linked their Workspace, Assets and Content Hub  I would like to export the metadata fields for each platform to ensure they appear on each platform correctly and determine which ones are linked and check everything is working correctly. Could someone tell me how to do this?Thanks 

Hi, We have a requirement in our project to delete, move, and merge tags. However, I’m facing some challenges in understanding how the taxonomy functionality behaves in these scenarios.1. Delete:When a tag is deleted, it is not removed from the associated asset properties. It appears that the tag must be explicitly removed from each asset, or handled through backend implementation.2. Move/Merge:When a tag is moved to a different folder or merged to a new tags, the changes are not reflected in the asset properties unless the tag references in the assets are manually updated.Could you please clarify why the system behaves this way? Is there any recommended approach to delete, move, or merge tags such that the changes are automatically reflected in asset properties, without requiring additional backend implementation?Thanks

Created a question by mistake. Admin please delete this question.

We are preparing assets for migration and need to deactivate and delete assets and folder that aren’t referenced.Is there an automated to do this, including reporting on the assets deleted and retained?

Hello, I’m trying to add a new field into the “Add Assets” functionality on Content Hub. It’s a field added to a custom form in Workfront which has been mapped to AEM Assets.Within “Import” in the Configurations area I have selected “dropdown”, but there is nowhere for me to enter the options for users to select from. I’ve tested the form after adding the field, hoping that the options may appear through the AEM / Workfront mapping, but this is not the case.I saw that the data entered on the custom form in Workfront was not on a test file in AEM Assets, but found the option to add dropdown options by uploading a csv file, so did this in AEM Assets. However it seems the data still doesn’t come through from Workfront - as it’s a dropdown field it seems the value must be input within AEM Assets.I’ve changed the field type from dropdown to single line text in AEM Assets. The correct metadata is now pulling through from Workfront - and is present in Content Hub. Now, I have one test asset i

Hi guys,  we have a local AEM instance and a connection with the Elanion instance of our customer. When we set up a translation job for the content fragments and start it. The status goes upon refreshing the page from “Commited for translation” to “Translation in Progress” to “Cancel” or only from “Commited for translation” to “Cancel”. Where do we find the logs to check why it was cancelled? Do we need to have access to our customers Elanion instance?   Thanks

A third-party penetration test flagged that PDF files downloaded from our AEM publish instance contain embedded metadata revealing software version information (e.g., Adobe InDesign 19.5, Adobe PDF Library 17.0, Adobe XMP Core 9.1). The security team requires this metadata to be stripped before the file is served to end users.We are requesting Adobe's official confirmation that AEM as a Cloud Service does not modify or strip metadata embedded within the binary content of uploaded DAM assets, and guidance on the recommended approach. What We Tried 1. Removed XMP metadata properties from the JCR metadata node2. Deleted the entire metadata node

Last October, I had looked into a course through adobe (Adobe Experience Manager - Manage and Deliver Digital Assets Using AEM ). It was a 2 day course, this got put on the backburner at work. I have now come back to look for it and I cannot get this link to load no matter what (I get stuck in a never ending loop of “Unable to sign you in. Something went wrong while signing you in. Please try again. Log in again”) nor can I find any info on the course anymore. Course Link: https://learning.adobe.com/courses/adobe_experiencemanager/cours000000000090761.html#accordion-e49b3a35f2-item-d61e35014aIs this course still available? Why can’t I see it anymore? The only other adobe course I can find with a similar name is a 2 hour self-guided one, that does not seem equivalent.Thanks in advance!

If you're managing digital assets for a real estate project - think property images, floor plans, brochures, virtual tour videos - Adobe Experience Manager (AEM) Assets can play a surprisingly powerful role in your off-page SEO strategy.I've been working on optimizing visibility for a residential project (Assetz Codename Sublime) and wanted to share how AEM Assets helps us earn backlinks, social signals, and brand mentions that directly impact search rankings.Why Off-Page SEO Needs Strong Asset ManagementOff-page SEO isn't just link building anymore. Google rewards brand authority, which means your images, videos, and downloadable content need to be:Consistently branded across syndicated platforms Embedded with proper metadata (EXIF, IPTC, schema) Fast-loading when shared on external sites or portals Traceable when picked up by third-party real estate listing sitesAEM Assets handles all of this natively.Practical Workflow We UseRenditions for external portals - We configure AEM to auto

Hi, I am trying to learn more about AEM Assets Power users. How should we define and manage AEM Assets Power User roles, permissions, and enablement (bulk edits, custom workflows, rendition controls) to maximize productivity while preventing governance drift, security risks, and performance bottlenecks?Do we mandatorily require this license seats since most of day to day operation is covered in basic user license?

I’m looking to learn from others who may have a similar setup or have solved a comparable challenge.Currently, our video workflow runs through Workfront, where metadata is captured and then pushed into AEM. However, the actual video files themselves are stored externally in Brightcove rather than in AEM.We’re exploring ways to improve the end-user experience in Content Hub by:Displaying video metadata coming from AEM Including a video thumbnail for visual context Providing a direct external link (stored in Workfront/AEM) so users can easily access the video in BrightcoveQuestion for the community:Have you implemented a similar approach where metadata lives in AEM (or another CMS), but the actual asset is hosted in a different platform?If so:How did you structure the integration? How are you surfacing the asset in your content hub or discovery layer? Any lessons learned or best practices you’d recommend?Appreciate any insights or examples you can share!

Hello awesome community guys, I found one missing tool in AEM MCP arsenal. Ended writing a custom mcp server that runs on AIO AppBuilder as runtime action.Explained here https://medium.com/@bsaravanaprakash/one-missing-tool-in-aem-mcp-registry-and-how-to-build-it-on-aio-902cc13b1afaWith this learnt experience, I quickly identified couple more tools usecases on my custom mcp server.Optimized product image search - tool will first hit PIM to resolve to more accurate tags and then hits DAM querying customized tags. Returns accurate product images Taxonomy Resolver - our DAM is massive (3.4M) and taxonomy follows rules. freetext image search mostly timesout due to volume. So custom tool, that runs taxonomy rules, narrows dam folder path and then run Adobe MCP asset search using querybuilder.  Is there any more usecases you are able to find? Tool example, that is difficult with Adobe MCP registry, and qualifies for its own custom server?  Please do share, ready to flex my muscles.

Hi Community,We recently encountered an issue with Dynamic Media Video Viewer Presets on our AEM 6.5.21 and wanted to share our findings in case others run into something similar.IssueIn the Dynamic Media component, one author was able to see all custom Video Viewer Presets, while another author could see only a subset of the available presets.The behavior was inconsistent across users even though the presets existed and were correctly configured.InvestigationAfter comparing permissions and user groups, we found that the affected user was a member of the Administrators group.While authoring the Dynamic Media component, errors were appearing in the logs. The issue was traced to:/libs/dam/components/scene7/common/viewerpresetdatasource/viewerpresetdatasource.jsp  The JSP iterates through the preset nodes and attempts to retrieve:preset.getNode(Node.JCR_CONTENT)For administrator users, the iteration also includes the rep:policy node because they have permission to view it. Since rep:polic

Has anyone implemented a solution to ingest assets from a Google Cloud Storage (GCS) bucket into AEM Assets that works across both AEM 6.5 AMS and AEM as a Cloud Service?We're looking for an approach that is portable between the two platforms and avoids maintaining separate ingestion solutions.I'd love to hear from anyone who has experience with:GCS → AEM asset ingestion architectures Custom services, middleware, ETL tools, or Adobe-supported integrations Metadata mapping and updates during ingestion Incremental synchronization of new or changed assets Patterns that are compatible with both AMS and AEMaaCS Lessons learned, challenges, or recommendationsIf you've solved a similar use case, what approach did you take and would you recommend it today?Thanks in advance for sharing your experience.

As a Principal Product Manager on Adobe’s Digital Employee Experience team, I focus on understanding and meeting enterprise content needs across Adobe—using Adobe products to do it. My team runs and operates our internal Content Hub, and we truly drink our own champagne by acting as Customer Zero. In a previous post, I shared how we create Branded Experiences with Experience Manager Content Hub and AEM Sites. In this post, I share how we utilized an early access, UI Extensibility feature in Content Hub to enable assets that have restricted licenses, to be requested--thus expanding potential opportunities for asset reuse, which reduces costs and makes better use of our original content creation.  Key Concepts Digital Rights Management: see this DRM post for a great overview of what’s new in DRM UI Extensibility: Content Hub supports UI extensibility (currently in Limited Availability), which enables the addition of custom UI components to the Content Hub UI for specific workflows and bu

We are looking for a dynamic functionality in assets where we have to show user id watermark on asset while viewing it on page and in DAM both. We are looking to add the user watermark when the user downloads the assets.Please provide your thoughts and ideas on this. 

Most DAM governance models we inherit are designed for a problem that no longer exists. The closed authoring loop is gone. Content Hub, MCP endpoints, and Brand Experience Agents have opened it, and the governance has not kept up. What is breaking in productionStale rights metadata reaching external partners through Content Hub. AI generated variants with no lineage back to the source. Tags that look right but were produced by an LLM without controlled vocabulary alignment. Distribution portals shipping content past its expiry because nothing on the way out re-reads the policy. What is working for us so farGovernance lives in metadata, not in folder paths. Folder structure is a navigation aid. Rights, lifecycle state, AI provenance, market scope, and approval state are schema fields, queryable and enforceable in workflow.Rights management is a first class object, not a tag. Model release, talent expiry, and market exclusion need their own model with start and end dates, and a workflow
