Hello Community,I need your input regarding an issue we’re facing. We have an integration in place for AEM Target. We are successfully pulling audiences from Target and using them in AEM to personalize content based on browser type. In the author environment, we’re able to view the respective personalized content as expected.However, when testing in the publish environment (server), we notice that while the content is being replaced, the UI is often blank. Occasionally, we see the default content instead. Upon investigation, it appears that `.mboxDefault` is hiding the content, even though the content is being replaced for the intended audience:.mboxDefault {visibility: hidden;}I want to ensure this will not cause issues in higher environments. Has anyone encountered a similar issue, and what steps did you take to resolve it? Please advise.Additionally, we observed another issue related to `[execute.mboxes[0].profileParameters]`:**Parameter value for `_cq_.resolvedSegments` exceeds the

Hi Everyone,We are facing an issue in our AEM setup related to vanity paths and Hindi pages.Problem StatementWhen we author a page content path in Hindi pages, a %20 (encoded space) is getting appended at the end of the vanity path.This behavior is observed only for Hindi pages.For English pages, sling:vanityPath property, and we directly use the same vanity path without issues.ObservationsThe issue happens only after translation (we usually author English pages and then translate them to Hindi using Process9).In Author mode, when the content path is authored, it looks fine. But once published, the vanity path automatically adds %20 at the end.Example: /hindi/page → becomes /hindi/page%20.For English pages, vanity paths remain clean and this issue does not occur.There is no visible trailing space in the sling:vanityPath Property.What We TriedChecked page properties and vanity path values — in English they are clean.Verified that no explicit sling:vanityPat

Hello, I know cloud manager pipeline includes a warm up pages service.I'm looking for additional information about how does it work if there a way to specify the list of pages to warm up or apply a custom script somewhere.More, how can we implement a way to cache a page on all dispatcher Pods? 

Hello, Goal: To display content from a content fragment onto a page or experience fragment. This must include data from fragment reference fields ie: nested content fragments and content reference fields, specifically images. Currently, OOTB only displays either with their respective paths.  My Approach:Create a copy of the content fragment componentCreate a Sling Model that exposes the input values from the dialog boxFor text fields, I would like to grab them, maybe add some basic logic and expose it to the component's HTLFor nested content fragments, I would like to find the content fragment, grab it's data and expose it to the component's HTLFor images, I would like to do the same and make it available for HTL to grab in a way that it can then display it on the page.Create custom HTL for the component that displays all the content based on whether or not they are selected in the dialog boxStyle said component with CSS My issue is with the Sling Model and HTL, I a

Hi team,I have a requirement. We are maintaining some pages in AEM and some of them in EDS using the universal editor. I need to redirect some pages from EDS to AEM. I noticed that we can create a redirect file at the root level to achieve this, but I don’t have the proper documentation. Could you please share the related document?Thanks@arunpatidar 

I meant this AEMaaCS section where I can define environment variables. I'll be using them as OSGI config. Also, do these values come in as a list of string or string array? Thanks! 

I am working on an issue that needed me to install SDK version 2024.10.18311 locally and ensure I get a successful build with no issues. I’ve done it and the build was successful. I also got the necessary org.apache.jackrabbit.oak.commons;version="2.2.0", but upon testing my local content, no components and contents are displayed despite successfully installing it via Package Manager. Pages and assets are present, but no components. Please help. Any documentation or solutions will be appreciated.

Hi,I’m trying to optimize oak indexes in a Clou. We have a few custom queries that are running very slow, and after checking explain plans, it looks like they’re falling back to traversal. I know AEMaaCS doesn’t allow direct CRXDE changes, so indexes need to be managed via code deployments. What’s the best way to properly define and deploy a custom oak:index in Cloud Service, and how can I safely test changes before pushing them through Cloud Manager? Also, are there tools or recommended steps to validate whether the new index is actually being used by queries? Thanks!

Hi All, I need to check readiness of my AEM applications/code to upgrade to AEM 6.5 LTS by running AEM 6.5 LTS Analyzer.I have gone through this page https://experienceleague.adobe.com/en/docs/experience-manager-65-lts/content/implementing/deploying/upgrading/aem-analyzer and understand that analyzer tool would generate a report which prepares issues from different categoriesApplication functionality that must be refactoredRepository items that must be moved to a supported locationConfiguration issuesAEM 6.5 features that have been removed by new functionality or that are currently not supported on AEM 6.5 LTSRemove Java and Guava API usagelater, there is another section talking about 'Content Transformer', what i understood from this is, it removes/delete typically JCR nodes by packaging under '/etc/packages/modernizer-content-transformation' as a backup, but the goal (checking readiness) is not fulfilled yet, I wonder what will be the next steps?Need to go through

Hi Everyone,I have a requirement to move our customized Adobe components into a proxy folder and update all content that currently references these components so they point to the new proxy versions.Example:Current component: buttonNew proxy component: buttonglThis means I need to update all pages to use the proxy component by modifying the sling:resourceType for every instance of the old button.Adobe Support recommended importing the content into code, applying the updates there, and then deploying through Cloud Manager (since we’re on AEM Cloud).I tried this approach in a demo project, but so far I don’t see my changes reflected in the AEM instance — currently testing on localhost. Steps I followed:Created a demo project, authored a new content page, and synced back to source code for making changes  2: Filter.xml  3: build using command: mvn clean install -PautoInstallSinglePackage4: Verify the changes are reflected in crxdeContent.xml<?xml version="1.0"

I'm working with AEM 6.5 and looking to optimize performance by configuring the minRecordLength property under org.apache.jackrabbit.oak.plugins.blob.datastore.FileDataStore.The documentation recommends setting this to 100 to ensure binaries (like DITA files) are saved in the Data Store instead of the Segment Store for better performance.However, I have a few questions:How can I verify where the binaries are currently being stored — Segment Store or Data Store — especially for different file types and sizes?If I don’t see the minRecordLength in the Felix Console (/system/console/configMgr), how do I confirm what value is being used by default?After setting minRecordLength=100, is there a reliable way (via logs or tools) to confirm that new uploads are being saved in Data Store?What metrics or logs should I track to evaluate performance improvements (e.g., segment size growth, compaction, GC)?I’ve uploaded files like small.txt and used scripts: def assetPath = "/content/dam/test-up

How to prevent the CSRF token call on non-SSO pages? 

I want to use GraphQL Query to get list of pages where XYZ Component is enabled based on set of input parameters. I have read multiple pieces of documentation on GraphQL Queries, and I learned that GraphQL is built to work with Content Fragments. Can anyone suggest way to achieve this requirement? 

Hi Team, Initially, the code worked as expected without using the embed property, while running on AMS AEM 6.5 (exact service pack version unknown). We are using the org.apache.sling.servlet-helpers dependency, which is correctly declared in the pom.xml. However, we suddenly encountered an issue with the target sync functionality. Upon debugging, we discovered that the servlet-helpers JAR was missing. The JAR is not visible in the AEM console or listed among the active bundles. To resolve this, we applied the embed property to include the JAR under the /apps folder. Unfortunately, this workaround has led to Sonar issues related to the dependency. We are currently using AEM version 6.5.21. The servlet-helpers JAR is available in AEM as a Cloud Service, but it appears to be missing in AEM 6.5. We're unsure whether it was replaced or bundled within another JAR. Is it acceptable to manually install the JAR via the AEM console under bundles, or is there a recommended way to restore it? Addi

might be best explain with an example: I have a servlet that returns true or false if HTTP post is successful.I also have a javax filter that checks if a user still has a session. if no session, redirect the user to the login page.User has 2 browser tabs open and both of them are displaying a form (could be the same or different forms).in tab1, user logs out.in tab2, user decides to submit the form (which is calling an servlet).In my filter and when processing the request for tab2, I w ant to redirect the user to the login page since they already logged out in tab1.How can I do this? I have tried response.sendRedirect and request.getRequestDispatcher. Both of them does not redirect the user to another page. Thanks

How to Automate AEM Offline Revision Cleanupby @giuseppebaglio  Dear AEM Community, I'd like to share my recently published article exploring how to transform the critical but tedious process of AEM Offline Revision Cleanup into an automated, one-command operation. IntroductionAEM's Oak repository eventually suffers from performance issues as unused data accumulates. My article presents a Bash script that transforms the tedious manual cleanup process into a single-command operation with built-in safety checks. This automation approach not only saves time but also reduces human error risk during critical maintenance operations. Key Points-  A powerful Bash script that automates AEM Offline Revision Cleanup with built-in safety checks.-  More than just a wrapper for oak-run.jar—it includes pre-flight checks, path validation, interactive prompts, and atomic operations.-  Features robust argument parsing, a streamlined Oak command engine, and safegua

Hi Community, I’m facing an issue with Experience Fragments in Cloud.We are trying to use the same XF across multiple sites. The fragment references are resolving fine on Author, but after publishing, some of the pages show broken references (the XF doesn’t render at all).The XF is published and available in Publish, The content path looks correct, Replication logs don’t show errors.Interestingly, if I republish the XF again, it sometimes works — but not consistently.Has anyone run into this problem where Experience Fragments intermittently fail to render on Publish? Any tips on what could be causing this or what I should check (replication agents, permissions, etc.)? Thanks for your help!

Hello Community,We have encountered an issue with the AEM Target integration, specifically related to saving and syncing activities in Target. We are receiving an error that does not seem valid in our case, as we have already referenced the audience with the offers/experience. Additionally, the same API integration works in other environments.We have also verified the permissions for the target group/service account for the relevant paths. Even after restarting the Test and Target bundle, the issue persists. Can someone advise what might be causing this issue and what fix is required to address it? Our AEM version is 6.5 SP22. We are using the out-of-the-box experience fragment component. We also tried using other components, but still had no luck. Verified the following areas:API integration has approver and editor privileges.Cloud service connectivity is in place.Cloud service configuration is updated in the root page.Able to pull audiences from Target.Test and Target replicatio
