One of them does work.

Here we go :

In addition to that , you can refer to this additional resource : 

https://experienceleaguecommunities.adobe.com/t5/adobe-experience-manager/how-to-read-xml-file-from-dam-and-place-it-in-jcr/td-p/250446

 

On a high level, you need to read this file from a jcr location as an object stream. Once you have the contents of the binary, you can write the xml structure into the repository and use them in your component.

        Hello @johnhenao10,

        I do not know about an Out of the box utility that imports XML in AEM. Of course writing a server side code is a possibility as discussed here: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/29396761/aem6-xml-import-to-jcroak

         

        However, the closest format for importing that I can tell is CSV/Excel, that can be imported into AEM using this utility: https://adobe-consulting-services.github.io/acs-aem-commons/features/mcp-tools/data-importer/index.html

         

        It could give you some idea on "How to" if not immediately solve what you are looking for.

         

        thanks,

        Preetpal Singh
