If I add keywords to our assets within AEM or add them in Adobe Bridge then upload to AEM, will those keywords only be searchable from within the AEM database?  We are using AEM to store our image assets for everyone in our communications department (including the web team) to access. We apply keywords to our images that we don't want used by search engines. These keywords will only be used by our team in the backend of AEM to find images. For example, we are a college and will use photos of students (who have signed a release) for various marketing materials, websites, and social media posts. We don't want keywords such as their full name, photoshoot location, age, college degree, or other identifying keywords to be searched publicly.  Can keywords added in the backend of AEM and associated with an image's properties be seen by public search images when used on our website or social media platforms?

I am looking for an API to use which can  create the Image sets and I found a one  and that is  deprecated "7SetHelper.html" eg : https://javadoc.io/static/com.adobe.aem/aem-sdk-api/2021.7.5658.20210723T140305Z-210600/comeg /day/cq/dam/commons/util/S7SetHelper.html can anyone give me a suggestion .. 

Hello. I would love to get some tips regarding best workflow regarding sharing folders and CC project files. Our plan so far is: All assets (photos, graphic, fonts) uploaded in AEM and connected to CC apps via Asset Link. Then making a folder structure in Creative Cloud for the project files that three co-workers can easily share with each other. That means both sharing folders and project files. How can I do that in the easiest way? (The AEM part with Asset Link is solved)

Hello everyone! I am looking for a solution on how to import Assets binary data Google Cloud to AEM DAM. Bulk Import supports only Azure blob & Amazon S3. are there any other tools solutions available directly to configure to google cloud storage..  

hi team, trying to access a published asset through publish url but running into some issues,first problem was to find the publish url, as per instructions elsewhere in this forum the publish url could be constructed by adjusting the author url, like this: Author url: https://author-xxxxx.adobeaemcloud.com/assetdetails.html/content/dam/tag_upload_test_folder/1920x1440.jpg Publish url: https://publish-xxxxx.adobeaemcloud.com/content/dam/tag_upload_test_folder/1920x1440.jpg  I hope that is correct Now, the publish url will get us to this page, no other error  is there something that needs to be configured for the dispatcher to work with our publish instance or is the url just wrong? 

I have attempted to publish a custom metadata schema from AEM Assets to Brand Portal. The customized tab does not publish. This tab includes a number of tagging properties pointing to a custom registered namespace. The Assets search rail uses predicates pointing to the custom namespaces. Is there any way to replicate this in the Brand Portal metadata schema and search rail?

Hi.I have heard it mentioned that Pipeline variables can be used in AEMaaCS to control things in dispatcher such as disabling the caching only in the dev environment.  Does anyone know how this can be done or can point to some documentation describling this? ThanksYonit

hi All, What are the options to allow external agencies upload large sized assets? Thanks in advance

Is it possible to move an assets from one folder to another using javacode on publisher instance.

Hello Team,We have to remove caching for specific file and have configured in vhost with below rules. # For Remove caching for i18n files<LocationMatch "^/etc\.clientlibs/myproject/clientlibs/clientlib-site/resources/i18n/.*\.$">Header Set Pragma "no-cache"Header Set Cache-Control "max-age=0, no-store, no-cache, must-revalidate"Header Unset ETagFileETag None</LocationMatch> But file getting cached and seeing response header like belowage: 64439cache-control: max-age=86400, public Can you please advise on how we can achieve avoiding cache this ?

HI All, Has anyone been able to set up AEM - Workfront enhanced connector?Specifically few questions below :1. Is it possible to initiate an approval process in workfront when an asset is uploaded into an AEM folder?2. Are the asset files from AEM actually moved to workfront? Thanks in advance for help.

I have a client that has UGC ....users make selections and it builds images dynamically, and we need to put it into dynamic media to be able to share later. Is there any api's out of box that will allow for that? So user goes and "creates" images and then the system needs to upload them to somewhere (dynamic media) and we give the user to share the images on social platforms.

Is there a way to delete metadata in bulk using a CSV/Excel file or any other method in AEM 6.5?We can add/modify existing fields, but can't remove already existing metadata fields. Any suggestions will be really helpful.

Hi,We need to add a couple of new metadata properties to the search index. For that, we have created a custom index, included the additional properties, and made it part of our source code. Referred this link - https://experienceleague.adobe.com/docs/experience-manager-cloud-service/content/operations/indexing.html?lang=en  to do this.Built and deployed the code successfully in my local AEM instance. Now when we try to deploy the same code into the cloud instance through cloud manager pipeline, it fails in the code scanning step with this error - "The index /oak:index/damAssetLucene-7-custom-1 is a customization of the out of the box index /oak:index/damAssetLucene which requires a config.xml file under the child node named tika". The strange thing is that we already have this tika folder as part of our index code and a config.xml inside it. But somehow, AEM/pipeline doesn't recognize it and keeps on failing. Can anyone help to resolve this?Thanks,Rahul

I am using the Assets HTTP API. One of the limitations is "Asset API does not return the complete metadata. In API the namespaces are hardcoded and those only get returned. If you need whole metadata, then look at the asset path /jcr_content/metadata.json." I am accessing the following path but it still does not show the complete metadata<URL>/api/assets/image.png.json/jcr_content/metadata.json Am I accessing an invalid endpoint?

Hello Team, AEM Version: AEM Cloud For admin, we can see "Export Meta data option" but for other users, We can not. Could someone help us how and what permission to give to them so that other groups could also view this option.  

Hi there, admin in creative cloud have created a deployment package with the Asset Link so that extension is now available as an extension i CC-apps like Photoshop, but the extension does not find any environment, how is that link actually done? It seems to be some automagic being done based on the user ID (enterprise license id), eg same ID used for creative cloud is added as a user for AEM Assets Essentials, but  it doesnt seem to work. What is the next thing to check?

Hi All, I have created a AEM project using AEM-Archetype 32.  I am using Visual Code Studio for development. Assume my /content/dam folder contains some digital assets and I am going to add one new image to my dam folder. After uploading I used "Import from AEM Server" Option in Visual Studio Code for downloading it in my local environment. Then when i try to commit it to my AEM Cloud Git Status it showing all the images are modified instead of showing only the last image I added. Any idea why its showing all the assets are modified during Git status ? Cheers 🙂

Hi, we installed SP9 on our dev servers. Since then we were not able to update the assets to dynamic media. After troubleshooting we found that assets are getting uploaded to scene7 but their metadata is still showing as uploadStarted instead of completed. Also no other properties e.g. scene7 asset url, company id etc. are getting updated to these asset’s metadata node. This was working fine earlier without Service Pack 9 Installation. Currently also, it is working fine on those servers where we have not installed SP9. any help in this would be appreciated. Thanks! 

Hi All, Recently I configured Dynamic Media classic in my local instance and its saved successfully too. But after that if I upload any images, then all my assets are failing in Scene7 Batch Upload Step. Getting below error  com.adobe.granite.workflow.WorkflowException: --Dynamic Media asset upload failed.

Hi All, I have a requirement to move asset/s from one path (/content/dam/sourcePath) to (/content/dam/dest) path.I am planning to use asssetManager.moveAsset(..) operation from com.adobe.granite.asset.api.AssetManager API.Ref.https://www.adobe.io/experience-manager/reference-materials/6-5/javadoc/com/adobe/granite/asset/api/AssetManager.htmlConsidering the AEM's newer architecture(AEM CS), is this the right way to implement asset move functionality? If I have to go with given API, how does assetManager.moveAsset operation works for already published assets, whether I need to unpublish it first and then invoke moveAsset operation or it will internally first unpublish it and then perform asset move?Any suggestions please..Thanks

Hi All, I am trying to create some Interactive Images using AEM Assets. Following are the steps I have followed1. Upload a image in Asset. Once upload finished successfully, clicked on Edit but not able to see Hot Spot Icon.2. Then configured Dynamic media and uploaded the same image once again. Image upload was successful and I am able to view the uploaded image from AEM Asset in Dynamic Media too.3. I am able to see Hot spot icon. But when I clicked Hotspot icon for image mapping I am not able to see the image in hotspot editor.4. When I inspect the particular page, whats happening is its trying to request some JSON from http://localhost:4502/is/image/<pathofimage>?req=set,json,UTF-8&label....5. If I replace the localhost:4502 with my Scene7 server, its returning me the actual JSON.6. Instead of Scene7 server its taking localhost. Can someone help me in resolving this issue? Thanks in Advance 🙂 

Hi, We want to move to release orchestration provided by AEM cloud in our POM currently we have SDK version mentioned where we define which version of AEM we are trying to use. I understand from automation point of view it is redundant as then it always requires a POM change to be done in git code. I am assuming there is a some environment variable we can use in our POM which can dynamically pick the latest SDK version in our main pom we have this property</properties>  <aem.sdk.api>2021.10.5933.20211012T154732Z-210900</aem.sdk.api></properties>or the cloud manager is smart enough to ignore this and just take the correct value? Thanks,Shehjad

Can we create a review task at an individual image level instead of folder or collection?
