import com.adobe.fd.output.api.OutputService is not resolving in Java file (AEMaaCS Local SDK)

[MohanJo]

I've added the following Maven dependency to both the parent POM and the core POM. Now, I'm attempting to utilize this service within an AEM servlet by importing com.adobe.fd.output.api.OutputService. However, Eclipse is unable to resolve or import this package.

I'm on AEMaaCS Local SDK.

<dependency>

<groupId>com.adobe.aemfd</groupId>

<artifactId>aemfd-client-sdk</artifactId>

<version>6.3.0</version>

<scope>provided</scope>

</dependency>

@workflowuser Also, I would be very interested to know why we're unable to leverage OutputService APIs which are already exported in AEM.

[workflowuser]

You mean 6.5 api?

[MohanJo]

yea OutputService APIs are showing available on aem cloud too, then why cant we use it?

[workflowuser]

There are API exposed that allow you to merge data with template on cloud service

recommeded to use those API 

[workflowuser · Accepted solution]

the command for creating cloud service project is like this

mvn -B archetype:generate -DarchetypeGroupId=com.adobe.aem -DarchetypeArtifactId=aem-project-archetype -DarchetypeVersion=41 -DaemVersion="cloud" -DartifactId="aem-banking-application" -DappTitle="BankingApplication" -DappId="bankingapplication" -DgroupId="com.aem.bankingapplication" -DincludeForms="y"

notice the aemversion = cloud

For AEM Forms as a Cloud Service local sdk, you need to use 

https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/com.adobe.aem/aem-forms-sdk-api sdk.
