Hi All,It's something we are seeing up for restricting certain file types in 6.2.

Hi All,During my recent AEM 6.2 SP1 project, there was a requirements to provide a list of images on the page.I have tried the solution Experiencing Adobe Experience Manager - Day CQ: AEM 62 - Touch UI Composite Image Multifield but I am facing some problems with the Touch UI authoring dialog, rendering sometimes more than one image drop area.There are more problems that I can describe here, if someone is interested to help :-) Also, I would like to know how to switch the component to store the images as JSON array vs sub-nodes. Let me know if you can help me find the robust solution. At this point I am stuck with this type of component(s)Thanks,Krass

Hi All,I want to navigate to the 'Create' button coming under Asset (http://localhost:4502/assets.html/content/dam) where we see a dropdown with the options:FolderFilesContent FragmentIt'd be a great help as I'm working for some upload functionality similar to Files option.

Hi All,Basically why pdf content cannot be edited?Ain't there any aem configuration or overlaying technique which would suffice this?

Hi all, I'm working on dam update asset workflow in AEM 6.3. In prior version of AEM, I was able to see completed workflows in workflow admin page at archive tab, especially for DAM update asset workflow.In AEM 6.3, however, I was not able to see any of completed DAM Update Asset workflow instance. I already have uploaded many of assets and all of the renditions for those were generated w/o trouble. I've confirmed those rendition in DAM UI.So I though the DAM update asset workflow should be ran and completed successfully.I need someone to explain this symptom clearly.Thanks much.Joseph

We have created a custom metadata schema editor and used it for assets under a particular folder structure.Steps to reproduce the issue : Navigate to assets dam folder and search for particular extension (Ex: jpg) Select multiple assets from same folder and click on 'View Properties' Observe that custom metadata schema editor is shown. Select multiple assets from different folder and click on 'View Properties' Observe that default metadata schema editor is shown instead of custom schema editor.Expected result : On selection of multiple assets from different folders, custom metadata schema editor should be shown. Appreciate any help on this !

Hello Community,we have a requirement to create renditions with fixed size. The problem is that aem always sizes the images along the ratio of the image and so a web enabled image which should be 1200x1200 has only a size of 1200x765 (for example) - which is good and totally okay! But we need something like cropping an area with fixed size out of the center of the image.is there any mechanism / workflow which can handle this? Or somebody who has similar problems / requirements?Thank you for your help!Thanks in advance,Alex

Hi,Is it possible to create schema editor and apply at asset level in stead of folder level?  Currently as i see, it can be applied for only folders but not for nodes.Please let me know if anyone have any thoughts.Thanks.

I'm seeing some odd behavior and I'm not sure where to find the default functionality or how to override it.If I go to View Properties for a page and then click edit it shows me the attached image viewproperties.pngWhen I click on the Generate Preview button it shows me the attached image generatepreview.png.What generates this image? Do we have the ability to change it?Can we use the page thumbnail?Any insight is appreciated. Thank you in advance for your assistance!-Dean

All of our content is hosted on the DAM. However, it's gotten out of control with over 9,000 documents, many of which have been placed illogically in folders or are years out of date. Many of our resources are up to date and accessed frequently. Looking for advice in regards to best practice for management and validation of content in the future and a practical solution for cleaning up and reviewing the existing structure. Thank you for the help!

My organization is currently cleaning up our site. We have several sub entities each with probably hundreds of PDF files that exist in CQ5 that need to be tagged. I'm part of one of those sub entities. We are doing this one file at a time. Are there any more efficient ways that this can be done? I was hoping that they could just send me a spreadsheet with my files and I could just update that to add names, entity, descriptions, and tags for the files that could be used to update the database, but I'm not in IT so maybe that's not possible?

Hi,I want to know how "prism:expirationDate" property works for Asset deactivation.What is the difference between asset "offTime" and  "prism:expirationDate"?Regards,Vikram.

Hello Community,I am using AEM 6.2 (no service packs). Components and the interface used are all Touch-UI.I have a use case wherein I have an image component (based on adaptiveimage) and i drag and drop and image onto it. When I move the image I had used in my component in DAM from 1 location to another (be it any location), the images in the DAM move, but fileReference property of the image component does not get updated causing image to not display on the page.The summary of the logs is:17.11.2016 10:05:00.279 *ERROR* [0:0:0:0:0:0:0:1 [1479373499953] POST /bin/wcmcommand HTTP/1.1] com.day.cq.wcm.commons.ReferenceSearch Error while adjusting references.org.apache.sling.api.resource.PersistenceException: Unable to commit changes to session......Caused by: javax.jcr.AccessDeniedException: OakAccess0000: Access denied    at org.apache.jackrabbit.oak.api.CommitFailedException.asRepositoryException(CommitFailedException.java:231)    at org.apache.jackrabbit.oak.api.CommitFailedException.as

Hello, I was wondering if there was any way to get the absolute link for a pdf file when hosting an asset in AEM. I want to be able to link the file in html or send the file to a colleague who does not have AEM access so they can download and review.Thanks in advanced.

I know this obvious, but I have not found an official statement/document on these folder settings.  We struggle with the permission on a group vs. folder and often un-do the intention of the group.  

Hi Team, I am trying to integrate AEM assets insights with Analytics, I successfully established a connection between AEM Assets insight and Analytics but when I go to Assets view and look at insights I am getting Failed to load data in statistics.In Developer tool it shows this error - http://localhost:4502/content/dam/XXX/milford-sound.jpg.performanceData.json?metric=impressions&from-date=2017-04-20&to-date=2017-04-27&granularity=dayFailed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 500 (Server Error) can anyone help understanding why is this happening? Thanks in advance.

HI , We are planning to run the DAM server and AEM server separately as we huge assets and customization on assets.  To reduce the load on the Author and Publisher servers we want to keep  DAM server separately,My Question is there a way to establish the connection from AEM server to DAM server so that authors will have asset access in AEM server itself even though it hosted as different server. Thanks in advance. Regards,Kumar
