Hi ,I am working on a requirement where a custom sling model needs to exclude pages that are unpublished/hidden from navigation, while recursively walking a page tree vis listchildren(). The issue driving this: page that are hidden in nav, unpublished and have a redirect configured still showing up in the list. so we need to explicitly hide unpublished pages, not just hidden ones. To fix this, I check cq:lastReplicationAction/cq:lastReplicationAction_Publish  on each pages’s ValueMap to filter unpublished ones. Resource contentResource = childPage.getContentResource();            if (contentResource != null) {                ValueMap properties = contentResource.getValueMap();                isHidden = properties.get("hideInNav", false);                isPublished = properties.get("cq:lastReplicationAction", String.class);                 isPublishedDispatcher = properties.get("cq:lastReplicationAction_Publish", String.class);            }            if (isHidden ||                 (St

I’m trying to set up a user on the publish instance to use as the author replication/transport user.  It looks like jcr:read, rep:write, jcr:versionManagement on say /content generally work well for replication.  However, if the page has Closed User Groups configured, I am running into the following error on the publish instance during replication:11.08.2026 18:21:57.678 *ERROR* [127.0.0.1 [1786486917674] POST /bin/receive HTTP/1.1] com.day.cq.replication.impl.servlets.ReplicationServlet Error during replication: The tree for /content/wknd/us/en/adventures/riverside-camping-australia/jcr:content does not existjava.lang.IllegalStateException: The tree for /content/wknd/us/en/adventures/riverside-camping-australia/jcr:content does not exist    at org.apache.jackrabbit.oak.core.MutableTree.beforeWrite(MutableTree.java:354) [org.apache.jackrabbit.oak-core:1.88.0]    at org.apache.jackrabbit.oak.core.MutableTree.setProperty(MutableTree.java:237) [org.apache.jackrabbit.oak-core:1.88.0]    at

Hi Team,I have an AEM page that includes one or more Experience Fragments, also known as XFs. The page is already published and is accessed through a domain on the AEM Publish environment.I need to display a “Last Modified” date on the main page. This date should be calculated based on the latest published modification date across the main page and all related or referenced content.The requirements are as follows:If the main page is modified and published, the displayed Last Modified date should be the main page’s latest published modification date. If one or more Experience Fragments used on the page are modified and published, while the main page itself is not modified, the displayed date should be the latest published modification date of the Experience Fragment. If both the main page and one or more Experience Fragments are modified and published, the displayed date should be the most recent published modification date among them. If an Experience Fragment used on the page contains

When navigating to Tools > Integrations in the AEM author console (https://author-p552-e2209.adobeaemcloud.com), I consistently get:An error has occurred.You do not have access to this resource.Sorry for the inconvenience.The "Local token" section below the error still renders fine (Get local token / Create new technical account buttons are visible and clickable), but the main Technical Accounts panel above it fails to load with this error.What I've already verified/tried:Confirmed in Adobe Admin Console that i has Developer Access assigned specifically to the correct product: "Adobe Experience Manager as a Cloud Service - " — not just the generic org-level AEMaaCS product. Assigned the "AEM Administrators - author - Program 212 - Environment 209" product profile to this user (previously only had Integrations/Developer profiles on the generic org-level product). Saved the change in Admin Console, confirmed it shows up under the user's assigned products. Fully signed out and back in,

Hello,  We are using AEM 6.5.22 (on premise version). which uses Apache Tika-core and Tika-parsers bundles with versions 1.28.5.Our Infosec team has reported a vulnerability on these versions and suggested to use the versions 3.2.2 and above. As I checked the maven repository : https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/org.apache.tika/tika-core all the versions below 3.2.2 have vulnerability. We cannot directly updated the versions on our side as this is OOTB.Also, when checked with the latest service pack (6.5.25) also doesn’t have latest tika-core. Any thoughts/suggestions would be much appreciated. Regards,Rohit

SSO (SAML) breaks after an in-place upgrade to AEM 6.5.25 (CFP-25) Environment: on-premise AEM Author, upgraded from 6.5.10 to 6.5.25.Immediately after applying CFP-25, every SSO-related decrypt operation fails with:javax.crypto.BadPaddingException: pad block corruptedThis appears to break decryption of the SAML keystore/truststore passwords and replication transport passwords. As a result, SSO fails and the CMS becomes inaccessible, except by disabling SAML authentication and using the manual login route. The master key is stored in the JCR under /etc/key; it was never migrated to the filesystem bundle. The key value itself was not changed during the upgrade. I simply installed the CFP package, waited until it was complete and restarted the instance, as per the instructions.  The workaround that resolved the issue (currently on test environments) was to rewrite the stored /etc/key value from the older obfuscated format to the raw value, so the newer crypto bundle could read it correct

Hi everyone,I'm looking for guidance on the recommended approach for securely storing OAuth access tokens in AEM as a Cloud Service.We're evaluating different options for storing an access token that is used for outbound API integrations. The approaches we're considering include:In-memory cache: This avoids persistent storage, but since AEM as a Cloud Service runs multiple author/publish pods, each pod maintains its own cache. As a result, a pod without the token may need to perform an additional OAuth token request. JCR storage under /var: Store the encrypted access token under /var with appropriate ACLs and access it only through a dedicated service user.I'd like to understand:Which of these approaches is generally recommended for AEM as a Cloud Service? Are there Adobe-recommended best practices for securely storing and managing OAuth access tokens? Has anyone implemented a different approach that works well in a cloud-native, multi-pod AEM environment?Any guidance, recommendations,

Hi,I am having an issue where, we lost the keystore/trust store password which we used while configuring SSL setup on AEM higher instane.As we dont have crxde enabled, is there any way to update or create a new keystore/trust store password to update SSL certifications as it is getting expired soon.Any help is appreciated.

Been thinking about this a lot lately, and curious how other AEM teams are approaching it.For years, we've poured effort into hardening the perimeter around our AEM environments — VDIs, VPNs, SSO, locked-down repos, strict PR gates. Classic castle-and-moat thinking: keep the outside out.But here's what's nagging at me: with AI coding agents now part of the daily workflow, files like CLAUDE.md, AGENTS.md, and .cursorrules have quietly become some of the most information-dense documents in the repo. Dispatcher configs, content fragment models, component architecture, business logic — plain-English descriptions of exactly how the system works.And that's the actual problem: these files usually don't get the same treatment as code. They're committed casually, reviewed loosely (if at all), and often live at the repo root where any contributor — human or AI agent — can read them. Unlike obfuscated code or config buried three folders deep, this is a plain-English map of your system: auth flows

Hi All,I need to create an AEM component which is capable of picking an asset from the local directory and provides the drag-n-drop functionality from the AEM DAM as well. I already followed some threads from experienceleague, even though they were helpful to a certain extent but did not clarify really which resourceType I should exactly use. It would be great if I may get some suggestions from the team.Coral3 file upload - granite/ui/components/coral/foundation/form/fileupload -  We can only upload from the local.            Cons :It does not provide the functionality to drag and drop an asset from the DAM. It is not saving the local file against the correct property name i.e., it is not saving the file in ‘fileNameParameter’ property, rather gets saved in the fallback property ‘name’. Once I upload the image from the local directory, the OOTB backend code isn’t handling the request properly i.e., the servlet response code, status, message are all visible on the page itself. Coral2 f

In AEM as a Cloud Service (AEMaaCS), the out-of-the-box (OOTB) CIF component Commerce Retriever APIs currently return Optional.empty() for both a successful GraphQL query that yields zero products and an execution failure (such as timeouts, HTTP 429s, or transient connectivity issues).Because both scenarios produce the exact same return value, custom implementations have no supported way to differentiate between them. This prevents us from delivering a tailored user experience, such as showing a "No products found" message versus a "Service temporarily unavailable" retry prompt.Proposed Implementation Approaches (Flexible):We leave the exact contract to Adobe Engineering's discretion, but viable options include:- Exposing a separate error object or status indicator.- Throwing a specific checked or unchecked exception on execution failure rather than swallowing it into an empty Optional.- Providing a metadata wrapper alongside the result.

Hi,We have a requirement to move/transfer files from AEM to Google cloud Storage using workflow Identity Federation Authentication.Files are generated using AEM scheduler, same scheduler should transfer files to Google Cloud.As per the recommendation, we should use Workflow Identity Federation Authentication for the same.Anyone worked on this previously and helpful suggestions are appreciated.
