Dynamic Media - Restrict Specific MIME Types (e.g., DOC and PDF) from Being Published to AEM DAM Dynamic Media

Hello,

I am trying to update the Dynamic Media configuration to restrict certain MIME types (e.g., documents and PDFs) from being published or processed by Dynamic Media. Due to legal constraints and compliance requirements, we cannot store these types of documents on Dynamic Media as it is hosted on a public server.

Could anyone assist me with how I can prevent these MIME types from being published to Dynamic Media?

Thank you.

@cxasha  you can restrict the PDF file type by:

1. logging into CRXDE

2. navigate to path: /conf/global/settings/cloudconfigs/dmscene7/jcr:content/mimeTypes/application_pdf

3. Set the enabled property as "false"

4. Save the changes

5. Try a PDF upload in AEM DAM, it will not be processed in Dynamic Media. Screenshot below for reference:

@cxasha Please create a package of the modified path and upload it to Stage. If it is AMS instance, Adobe should install it on Prod through a CAB request.

use Dynamic Media Processing Profiles and update profile setting for allowed MIME type @cxasha

Do you mean create new Processing profile with mimetype settings and apply to folders?
