AEM Cloud Service | Getting geo location header in publish

[selvendranr9588]

Hi Team,

Please help me understand how do we get the x-aem-client-country and x-aem-client-continent headers in AEM publish instance.

At present the headers are coming only in author and not in publish dispatcher. We are using AEM cloud service and all the environments are managed via cloud manager.

Hi @selvendranr9588 

By default AEM managed CDN adds headers to each request with x-aem-client-country and x-aem-client-continent header.

If your publish instance is managed via AEM Cloud Manager then it should appear. If not raise a ticket with Adobe Support and they should be able to resolve the issue. There is no other configuration that needs to be done.

Thanks!

The geolocation headers are coming from CDN to the origin.

The flow should be something like request -> cdn -> (cdn appends headers) -> dispatcher -> aem so one needs to fetch it on apache and redirect or do  things.

If the headers are not visible in the flow(you need to explicitly log it to see them), you should reach out to AEM Support or your CSME along with your dispatcher configs to review.

[Jörg_Hoh · Accepted solution]

The dispatcher allows you to filter headers, which are then forwarded to the AEM instance (or blocked). 

Make sure that these headers are provided there, as they are not included by default.
