Getting Started with AEM Headless - GraphQL by Adobe Docs Abstract AEM’s GraphQL APIs for Content Fragments supports headless CMS scenarios where external client applications render experiences using content managed in AEM. A modern content delivery API is key for efficiency and performance of Javascript-based frontend applications. Using a REST API introduce challenges: Large number of requests for fetching one object at a time Often “over-delivering” content, meaning the application receives more than it needs To overcome these challenges GraphQL provides a query-based API allowing clients to query AEM for only the content it needs, and to receive using a single API call.

Authoring Content Fragments by Adobe Docs Abstract Content Fragments are a content abstraction in AEM that allows text-based content to be authored and managed independently of the channels it supports. AEM Content Fragments are text-based editorial content that may include some structured data elements associated but considered pure content without design or layout information. Content Fragments are typically created as channel-agnostic content, that is intended to be used and re-used across channels, which in turn wrap the content in a context-specific experience. This video series covers the authoring life-cycle of Content Fragments in AEM. Details about delivering Content Fragments can be found here.

Multi Series Charts in AEM Forms by Adobe Docs Abstract AEM Forms 6.5 introduced the ability to create and configure multiple series charts. The multiple series charts are typically used in association with Line,Bar,Column chart type. The following chart is an good example of multi series chart. The chart shows the growth of $10,000 USD in 3 different mutual funds over a period of time. To be able to create and use charts of these kind in AEM Forms, you will need to create the appropriate Form Data Model. To create multi-series charts in AEM Forms, you need to create an appropriate Form Data Model with necessary entities and associations between the entities. The following screenshot highlights the entities and the associations between the 3 entities. At the top level, we have an entity called “Organization”, which has a one-to-many association with Fund entity. The Fund entity, in turn, has a one-to-many association with the Performance entity.

AEM Image Processing and Best Practices by Engineering at ICF Next Abstract Objective Objective of this document is to define the out of the box Image renditions and processing concepts in AEM and compare with the Image Transformation process using ACS (Adobe Consulting Services) commons library. Its pros/cons are also listed. Image Renditions vs Image transformations In Image renditions separate images are created and stored in DAM for each size/resolutions, whereas in transformations one high quality image is uploaded and the same is used in different sizes and resolutions and are transformed according to the need in runtime on the fly and cached in dispatcher. More details pros/cons are mentioned in below sections. Image Rendition Rendition is a process of creating multiple sizes and versions of images post uploading them to DAM (Digital Asset Management). These renditions are helpful in creating thumbnails or smaller image views of large and high-resolution images which can

metatype=true in AEM by rashidjorvee Abstract Why we add parameter metatype=true in @Component annotation? When we add parameter metatype=true then Apache felix generate a metatype.xml file for that component, if we don’t then there will no metaype.xml file. Metatype.xml file contains an element which have parameters name and description of the component. Under the we have another ta which have detail information of property which we want to make visible and configurable on Apache felix console localhost:4502/system/console/configMgr. So if we specified ten properties in our component then there will be ten elements under the Metatype.xml file also contains the element with attribute PID and which has parameter OCDREF under the element, which represent and store the configured values. Value for PID and OCDREF is always used to same and that is also the name of the file which you will find in the CRX. When we add metatype=true in the parameter of @component that means we hav

Conflicts with Sling Feature Model and Content Configurations by danklco Abstract Both AEM as a Cloud Service and Sling CMS 1.0.2+ use the Sling OSGi Feature Model for provisioning instances. The Sling OSGi Feature Model offers several improvements over the Sling Provisioning Model it replaces in that it is richer in capabilities and more descriptive of the applications being created. There are some tricky situations you need to consider when converting legacy applications from a Provisioning Model paradigm to a Feature Model paradigm. Most revolve around the new initialization / configuration as code capabilities in the OSGi Feature Model. RepoInit and Content Package ACLs One of the abilities of the Sling OSGi Feature Model is to include RepoInit scripts as a part of the application definition. With RepoInit, we can express the desired state of the repository in a RepoInit script and the RepoInit Parser and Processor will initialize the repository in that state. This can include

Reusing Authored Content Effectively with Contextual Content Variables for Adobe Experience Manager by Ryan Keenan Abstract Adobe Experience Manager (AEM) provides non-technical users with a lot of power and flexibility when creating content as well as supplying tools for significant content reuse, like Content Fragments, but there are still situations in which developers need to be brought in to handle specific requirements. One of those cases is when content needs to be authored on a specific page but also surface values that are authored elsewhere in AEM. Bounteous is always looking for ways to enable our partners using AEM to be self-sufficient and empowered in their authoring environment and so Contextual Content Variables, a newly released feature in Adobe Consulting Services (ACS) AEM Commons, seeks to solve this need for direct developer intervention when trying to surface a contextual variable inside authored content. Contextual Content Variables This new feature allows aut

Using Jolt as a Transformation Tool in AEM by perficient Abstract One frequent use case most of the Adobe Experience Manager (AEM) Full Stack Developers would have come across is migrating content from different applications into AEM. Data from source applications can come in various formats like JSON, XML, CSV, etc. When the source file format is JSON, in order to transform the source data to target structure, we need to write complex programs to read and parse it. In this blog, I will show you an efficient and configurable solution to this problem. I recently faced this challenge with one of our clients. They have a Solr service, in which the most recent information about their shops around the world is stored. I wanted to avoid calling that service every time we present that information in AEM. For this purpose, I decided to implement a daily batch process to get the data from the service and turn it into JCR nodes and properties. The problem was that the information is stored in

Loading JSON Content into AEM by perficient Abstract Let’s talk about extract, transform, and load, also known as ETL. If you are an AEM professional, this is something you have previously dealt with. It could be something along the lines of products, user bios, or store locations. The extract and transform parts may differ depending on your source and requirements. The loading part is almost always going to be into AEM. While there may be a few ways to do that, let us talk about what is there for you out-of-the-box. Sling Post Servlet As an AEM developer, the Sling Post Servlet is something you should be familiar with. In particular, there is an import operation. This allows us to do the following: curl -L https://www.boredapi.com/api/activity | \ curl -u admin:admin \ -F":contentFile=@-" \ -F":nameHint=activity" \ -F":operation=import" \ -F":contentType=json" \ http://localhost:4502/content/mysite/us/en/jcr:content/root/container You can run this many times. You will get activity

Use cases of ModifiableValueMap in AEM by aem-ti2fap blogspot Abstract The ModifiableValueMap is an extension of the ValueMap which allows to modify and persist properties. All changes to this map are stored in the transient layer of the resource resolver or more precisely in the transient layer of the resource provider managing this resource. Use cases in AEM :: Mandatory step - 1. Get the resource resolver. 2. Get ModifiableValueMap interface - ModifiableValueMap mvp = resolver.adaptTo(ModifiableValueMap.class); 1. Get SINGLE value property of a node: String value = mvp.get("multivalue", String.class); 2. Get MULTI value property of a node: String[] value = mvp.get("multivalue", String[].class); 3. Add SINGLE value property to a node: String val = "single"; a. mvp.put("singlevalue", val); b. mvp.putIfAbsent("singlevalue", val); 4. Add MULTI value property to a node: String[] val = {"test1","test2"}; mvp.put("multivalue", val); 5. Add MULTIPLE properties to a node: Map<Stri

Hi ,We have recently upgraded from at.js 1.6 to at.js 2.0.0 to support VEC for single page applications. However as per documentation below , at.js 2.0.0 no more supports cross domain tracking.  Can anyone please suggest any alternate solution for cross domain tracking with at.js 2.0.0 ( ability to create a Target activity that spans siteA.com and siteB.com and the visitor would remain in the same experience when they crossed domains) https://docs.adobe.com/content/help/en/target/using/implement-target/client-side/atjs-cookies.htmlThird-party cookies and cross domain tracking is not supportedCross-domain tracking makes it possible to see sessions on two related sites, but with different domains, as a single session. You could create a Target activity that spans siteA.com and siteB.com and the visitor would remain in the same experience when they crossed domains.

Hi All, I was wondering if anybody has recommendations for a solution to this problem. We were hoping to add a few surveys to our websites (31 websites all the same but in different languages) for visitors at certain points (order complete / cancelled etc) but we wanted to link the data with Adobe so we could see in Workspace what page they were on when they answered and another other data (time on site / depth of visit etc) as well as importing things order number and it's associated values. Does anybody use a service that they can recommend where the data can go into analytics? Thanks Dave
