Error in Import Packages com.adobe.aemfd.docmanager,version=[1.9,2) -- Cannot be resolved

 I am currently migrating AEM Classic Forms to AEM as a Cloud Service (AEMaaCS) and need to generate PDFs using an XDP template and XML data.

I attempted to use the Output Service API as described in the documentation:

Generate PDF documents using output service | Adobe Experience Manager

However, I am encountering import/package resolution errors when deploying my bundle to the local AEMaaCS SDK.

Current Dependency (not working in AEMaaCS)

<dependency>
<groupId>com.adobe.aemfd</groupId>
<artifactId>aemfd-client-sdk</artifactId>
<version>6.1.152</version>
</dependency>

From my investigation, this dependency is intended for AEM 6.x (on-prem/AMS) and is not compatible with AEM Forms on Cloud Service.

Proposed Approach

It seems that for AEM Forms CS, the correct dependency should be:

<!-- Source: https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/com.adobe.aem/aem-forms-sdk-api -->

<dependency>

<groupId>com.adobe.aem</groupId>

<artifactId>aem-forms-sdk-api</artifactId>

<version>2026.03.30.00-260300</version>

<scope>compile</scope>

</dependency>

``

Questions

1. Could you please confirm if this is the correct dependency/version for compatibility with:

   aem-forms-addon-2026.03.30.00-260300
   

2. How can I obtain this JAR/artifact?

   • Is it available via a public Maven repository, or
   • Does it require access through Adobe’s private repository / Software Distribution?

3. Are there any additional configuration steps required to use the Output Service in AEM Forms CS (compared to AEM 6.x)?

Please let me know if I’m missing anything in the setup.

Thanks in advance for your help.
