Hi All,


I'm new to AEM. I need to extract/download all folders under /content/dam/ . How can I do this using AEM 6.1 ? I am accessing this via damadmin and have the admin credentials.Download button is not available when I highlight a folder. I'm accessing AEM Asset using web (chrome).  Please help. Thank you!

One of the options could be to navigate to /crx/packmgr and create package with your filter and download zip file. Thanks

When you have added the rule to the package definition, you need to rebuild and then download it.

Hi smacdonald2008​, this is what I looking for. We have managed to build atleast one of our folders and its content. Thank you!

Hi smacdonald2008​ , just want to ask if there is any other way to download the build folder rather than downloading it via web? The file size of the build folder is too huge to download it via browser. Thank you

Build smaller packages? Download it from the server directly (where bandwidth shouldn't be a problem). I am not aware of a function "download as file on the server".

Download from the server directly seems the best option. I have the ssh key but where can I locate the build packages? Thank you

Hi Jorg,

I have manage to download package from server using curl command:

curl -u admin:admin http://localhost:4505/etc/packages/export/name_of_package.zip > name of local package file

Just want to ask if how can I access the package from my local machine?
