Editing XDP document within AEM OSGI 6.5

Hi Community, 

 

I am checking to see if there is an options to edit the XDP document within AEM OSGI 6.5 , without having to use the AEM forms Designer. 

 

The end users would like an ability to directly edit the XDP file ( Change labels and some static text in the XDP file) from within the AEM ui, without having to download the XDP from AEM and upload it into the Designer. Is there a way this can be achieved? Please do let know.

 

Regards,

@komatsu20 you are entitled to designer even with an OSGi license. Install the software on the local/server edit the xdp and upload it back on the OSGi forms and documents.

 

Other than this there is no other way to edit the xdp. I assume you know that xdp is still a XML source, if you can play around and are confident that you can edit the source in IDE as well and checkIN to repo as well than static text can be updated in the source as well but not inside OSGI console but in IDE, sublime, notepad or Visual code
