AEM Versioned clientlibs can be a lifesaver in terms of performance push by Divanshu Goyal Abstract Whenever we talk about AEM clientlibs comes to a handy tool to deploy all the js and CSS bundled together as a single loaded entity over the page at load event. For a long time, we always have a common concern to cache the clientlibs on the page to increase the performance. But we always got stuck in an infinite loop when we talk about continuously updating clientlibs and cache becomes overhead for invalidation each time. So, versioned clientlibs solve this problem for us as it allows to cache CSS and JS to be cached for a longer period of time at the same time as invalidation happens automatically too which in turn reduces the page load time of the website and improves performance as It uses Sling Rewriter to rewrite the client libraries generated by aem and append a unique MD5 value at the end of the client library URL and later it is cached. This MD5 value is unique to the code of

We have a component its having 2 fields  , both the fields of type dropdown . field1 value is hardcoded in component class. field2 value should load based on field1 value selection.(field2 value will loaded after selecting field1 value) We have already implemented this. Now we  need to achieveExample Scenario: Step1: We opened component and selected field1 value.Step2: Then selected field2 value.Step3: Submitted the component dialog. Again when we open the component dialog to make field2 value selected, we need the value stored previously in CRX. We achieved this by using Ajax call Example: By calling specific component path                localhost:4502/content/pagename/jcr:content/abccomponent.json        Then we retrieved  specific component property and made field2  selected. We need to fetch the previously selected value of field2 without calling Ajax. Is th

Hi AEM folks,We are setting up AEM SFDC Cloud configuration on our higher environments. We have already done it for the author instance as we have access to the cloud configuration on author mode but whereas we don't have access to publisher cloud configuration on our higher environments what should be the recommended way to set it up on the publisher ?Our servers are managed by Adobe. Reference link for Salesforce setup: https://experienceleague.adobe.com/docs/experience-manager-65/administering/integration/salesforce.html?lang=en#exporting-aem-users-as-salesforce-leads Thanks,Nikhil Kumar@arunpatidar @joerghoh @vanegi @briankasingli @vijayalakshmi_s  @veenavikraman 

Dispatcher Tips and Tricks on AEM as a Cloud Service by Damian Langsweirdt Abstract Content delivery using Adobe Experience Manager (AEM) has long been aided by the dispatcher module, which sits in between visitors to a website and AEM itself to help with caching, URL rewriting, HTTP header manipulation and more. Those benefits generally carry over from the traditional AEM platform to AEM as a Cloud Service, however as a member of the Cloud Service engineering team at Adobe I wanted to share some insights to best take advantage of the power of the dispatcher on Cloud Service based on learnings from real customer implementations. Tip #1 — Use the local dispatcher validator One difference with Cloud Service is the requirement that all dispatcher configuration is treated as code stored in git, and deployed via the standard Cloud Manager CI/CD pipeline. A side of effect of this difference is that small, iterative changes made during development require a more time-consuming deployment, r

Migrating a Dispatcher Configuration from Managed Services to AEM as a Cloud Service by James Talbot Abstract Cloud Manager for Adobe Managed Services is able to deploy dispatcher configuration files through a GIT repository. This can make migration to AEM as a Cloud Service easier, and this post will focus on migration from this standard developed by Adobe Managed Services. Projects generated by Adobe Managed Services Cloud Manager using the built-in wizard have the correct Maven project structure created as part of the project creation. This is the recommended path for new Managed Services customers. The Maven build should produce a zip file which contains at least two directories — conf and conf.d. This zip file can be produced using the maven-assembly-plugin. Existing Managed Services customers not using the built in Cloud Manager wizard can also take advantage of this capability in Adobe Managed Services. In order to migrate from Adobe Managed Service to AEM as a Cloud Service

AEP Web SDK by PedroMonjo Abstract AEP Web SDK The Adobe Experience Platform Web SDK was introduced some time ago. I do not remember exactly when, but I have not had the time to work with it until very recently. Now that I have finally started to get my hands dirty with it, I will start writing about it. However, before I get into the how, I want to start with the why and the what. The origin While there are multiple reasons why Adobe developed this new library, I would highlight two: simplify the deployment of code and the advent of the Adobe Experience Platform (AEP). Simplification The Adobe Experience Cloud (AEC) has been based on acquisitions. From Omniture more than 10 years ago to Marketo just over 2 years ago. Even these acquired companies came with their own baggage of acquisitions, like Touch Clarity. The obvious consequence was that each product was developed in isolation, with its own JavaScript library and edge servers. Read Full Blog AEP Web SDK Q&A Please use thi

CRX Cleaner and IntelliVault Plugins for AEM by SGAEMSolutions Abstract CRX Cleaner and IntelliVault Plugins for AEM I have always been fond of plugins and tools which makes my life easier. In this blog, I will talk about two of my favorite plugins in IntellijIdea which makes my AEM development easier: CRX Cleaner and IntelliVault. CRX Cleaner: Recently a new plugin has been added in my development life which is CRX Cleaner. This is an IntellijIdea Plugin and absolutely free. Use Case: In AEM, while syncing the content, the syncing of workflows, templates, policies or sometimes pages also need to be done from AEM to the codebase repository. While syncing via packages/ plugin, it pulls all the unwanted properties like jcr:modifiedBy, jcr:modifiedDate, jcr:createdBy etc in the code base and makes git pushes really messy. Before this plugin, either I just avoided these properties and pushed the code having these properties or I used to clean up by myself one by one which was a super

AEM Project Archetype 25 by Adobe Git Abstract This release includes the following enhancements and new features: Support AEM Analyser: AEMaaCS provides an extended analysis of projects in the build and deployment pipeline. This includes running the Feature Model Analysers on the content packages. AEM project now includes an analyzer maven plugin that locally validates the content packages from the current project. It helps find issues with these before the packages are deployed into AEMaaCS, by running additional validation locally as part of the Maven build. Forms Integration Framework: Options to include latest AEM Forms Core Components and AEM Forms as a Cloud Service SDK specific configurations to an AEM Archetype project. It helps you build a ready-to-use project for AEM Forms as a Cloud Service SDK. Core Components 2.13.0: Benefit from the latest update to our many of our components, including new support for Dynamic Media in the image component, a new Form POST handler to s

Content ETL made even easier by Nicolas Peltier Abstract Already 2 years ago, i wrote about how easy it can be to write Apache Sling Pipes to Extract, Transform and Load your content. In the team i am working on we have been using them pretty extensively, with mostly positive feedbacks. However some people were not yet plainly satisified because of two reasons: 1. it was still a bit difficult to apprehend what you can use, how and when, 2. when you want to validate and archive the pipes you've run against your system, what you were storing in the git repository was the FileVault representation of its "compiled" persistence. This makes reviews, change, history checking really tedious. 3. Also my estimate colleague Jörg Hoh asked for more / better documentation. Ultimately a project sold to help translate a few words between sling developers into few words that can be executed on a sling instance was ending up in a complex bunch of stodgy XML files. Finally pipes find their origin

Hi,As per the documentation MSM Best Practices , placing the new configuration before standard rollout configuration is not deleting the pages in the old location of live copy.To fully realize a page move from a blueprint to live copies, consider the following best practices:Create a custom rollout configuration:This new configuration must include the action:PageMoveActionDo not add other actions to this configuration.Position the new configuration:To fully roll out the page move, while deleting respective pages at their old location in the live copyPosition the newly created configuration before the standard rollout configuration.The standard rollout configuration will take care of deleting the pages in their old location.The behavior what we are seeing is :Let's take a Blueprint website /content/BP with a Livecopy /content/LC1) Renamed/moved  /content/BP/a/page to /content/BP/a/pageRNM2)After rollout, both the live copy pages are present /content/LP/a/page and also /content/LP/a/page

Hello All, The TokenUtil class (TokenUtil (The Adobe AEM Quickstart and Web Application.) ) is deprecated in AEM 6.5 . What is the alternate method to create AuthenticationInfo objects.

Using Adobe Sign to E-Sign an Adaptive Form? Here’s the Best Way to Do It by Adobe Tech Blog - Khushwant Sehgal Abstract A signature on a form or a document is an authorization or a proof of identity and intent. Most forms require signatures before those are considered complete or submitted for further processing. You can use Adaptive Forms (Adobe’s version of enterprise class web forms) to build a paperless form filling experience and Adobe Sign to helps people sign the filled forms and documents from the convenience of their home, saving people time, money, and energy spent on physically visiting an office to fill and sign a form. When you use Adobe Sign with Adaptive Forms, incorporate the following best practices to provide a great user experience to your customers Use Case You have a form that requires signatures of the first party before it is shared with other signing parties. For example, a property purchase agreement. Normally, govt or FSI forms require signatures of the a

Hi, I have few input fields and created button(converted single line text to button) on content fragment.When i click button on content fragment, the input fields are updated through ajax call response data, But when i am trying to save the updated values that is present in the input fields via default save button on the TOP is not updating to Content fragment. If i edit any input fields in content fragment, then newly updated values are saved to content fragment via SAVE button on top. Is there a way to customize the save action ? Thank you.

Hello,We are having issues moving the page in blueprint. This only started happening after an upgrade to AEM6.4.1. In earlier version of AEM, 6.2.1 this works fine. We created a new Rollout Configuration, added a single PageMoveAction to it, made sure that it is ordered before the default one. Config is triggered on "rollout" action. Once you move a page in blueprint, cq:LiveSyncConfig node gets created under the live copy with the following props: cq:isDeep, cq:moveTarge, cq:rolloutConfigs, and cq:master prop pointing to the new location in blueprint. After rolling out the blueprint page, the live copy page with any live copy specific page content gets moved accordingly to the new location. However, after an update to 6.4.1, this stopped working. Once you move the page in blueprint the cq:LiveSyncConfig node is not getting created in the live copy. There is a following error in the error log: 03.10.2018 11:01:58.407 *WARN* [pool-31-thread-1] org.apache.felix.eventadmin Service [com.da

How Sazerac is stirring up its customer experience with Adobe by Adobe Docs Abstract Liquor sales went on an upswing in 2020 as consumers stuck at home found new ways to imbibe, including going online to secure their favorite alcoholic beverages. To keep up with the changing tastes and preferences of consumers, and engage with a new cohort of shoppers who started to rely more on online shopping, alcohol manufacturers realized that they had to invest in a healthy digital infrastructure to connect with their customers, existing and new. Otherwise, another brand could – and would - quickly fill that void. That was the challenge for Sazerac, the parent company of beloved spirits such as Southern Comfort, Fireball Cinnamon Whisky, Buffalo Trace Bourbon, and more. While consumers were familiar with Sazerac’s 400-plus brands, many of the brands had a limited or outdated online presence, and Sazerac as a parent company lacked strong connection with its customers globally. Thus, positioning t

How Adobe Experience Cloud helped powersports company BRP take adventure to the next level by Adobe Docs Abstract In 1937, Joseph-Armand Bombardier patented the first-ever vehicle to travel on snow. Twenty years later, Bombardier launched Ski-Doo, and in the process, created the powersports industry. Today, BRP continues Bombardier’s legacy of innovation. Growing to become a CA $6.1 billion company, the company’s brands (Ski-Doo, Sea-Doo, Can-Am, and Lynx, to name a few) are powering new adventures on water, on snow, on the road and in the air. Traditionally, purchasing a powersports vehicle like a snowmobile was done solely in physical stores. Powersports enthusiasts would head to their local dealerships, sometimes multiple times, to ask questions, compare models, and get a demo of vehicles before buying the vehicle at the dealership. However, in recent years, the industry has seen a shift in consumer purchase behavior as riders are increasingly turning to digital channels for eve

Hi there, I am editing a page on a website through Sites, which contains a grid. The change I have made was to the wording within the grid. Above the grid is a header sitting in a component which is labelled 'Header Group'. When viewing on edit mode this label is grey and faint just like all of the component labels, however when I changed to preview mode all component labels correctly disappear except for 'Header Group', which is now the same text colour and font as the page copy. Any reason as to why this might be? I am reluctant to publish the page in case this wording also is visible. Thanks
