AEM cloud, is there an api to copy content packages from prod and deploy to non prod?

[TB3dock]

We have a person who's main job is to build a package on our prod env, download it, then upload and install it on our 5 non prod environments on a daily basis.   This is so our uat/test/hotfix envs etc. have the latest content.

Given the limitations imposed on Cloud AEM, is there a way to automate this?  Maybe selenium scripts?

I could see a solution but still requires few more steps to be automated-

Look at this article once if that helps.

Hi @TB3dock 

To sync content between instances please use below 2 tools if you are having large amount of data.

1. Use Adobe recommended tools such as Grabbit and File Valut tools to synccontent if you have large data.

2. Create a package & install it on instance- If you have less amount of data.

Please find below information to understand and configure above mentioned tools in AEM.

I hope this helps.

Thanks for the reply, but the tools you mention here appear to be manual - we need to automate the process.
