Hi All , 

 

I have a servlet ajax call in my JS file using path type  and this JS file is not part of any component but a theme clientlibrary used for one of our child website.

 

I want to convert that servlet path type to resourceType for cloud.

 

How is the best approach to handle such Servlets and how we can convert to resourcetype.

Hi @sb2512 

Change the servlet from path to resource type

@SlingServlet(resourceTypes = "myproject/components/structure/ajaxhandler", extensions = "json")

Create Synthetic Resource

In CRXDE or content structure (e.g. /conf or /content):

/conf/mysite/servlets/ajaxhandler - sling:resourceType = myproject/components/structure/ajaxhandler

Update JavaScript Call

fetch('/conf/mysite/servlets/ajaxhandler.json')

 

Hope this may helpful.

 

Regards,

Karishma.

    Hi @karishma_begumsh ,

     

    Thanks for the reply.

     

    Is there any documentation/example for this.

    Also keeping this in /conf or /content which is mutable is recommended ?
