AEM local setup with dynamic media enabled

[JeffreyVSpringbok]

Hi

I want to configure the dynamic media settings and viewers on my local environment (AEM as a cloud service version: aem-sdk-quickstart-2023.6.12255.20230608T053118Z-230400 ), so this settings are always deployed with every deployment.
I try to run the local AEM setup with the following command with runmodes author and dynamic media explicity passed through: (https://experienceleague.adobe.com/docs/experience-manager-65/assets/dynamic/config-dms7.html?lang=e...)

java -jar -agentlib:jdwp=transport=dt_socket,server=y,suspend=n,address=5005 aem-author-p4502.jar -r author,dynamicmedia_scene7 -p 4502

 And I see that the right runmodes are enabled on http://localhost:4502/system/console/status-slingsettings

Run Modes = [dynamicmedia_scene7, crx3, author, sdk, live, crx3tar]

 
When I want to check the Image core component (V3) I don't see the option to enable the DM media configs (https://experienceleague.adobe.com/docs/experience-manager-core-components/using/wcm-components/imag...) or the possibility to configure DM configurations.

Does someone has any idea what I'm missing?

Thanks

Hi @JeffreyVSpringbok , did you create Dynamic Media Configuration in cloud services in your local instance?
Once that is configured I guess you should be able to see options related to DM in components

Hope this helps,

Hi @JeffreyVSpringbok ,

It seems the dynamic media configuration is missing, if not created then configure it from the email from Adobe while provisioning it.

Follow the steps from the documentation

Thanks,

Hello @JeffreyVSpringbok - 

The Dynamic Media configurations and settings are not available in the local AEM SDK environment by default.

Additionally, setting up Dynamic Media without a separate AEM instance is not recommended because Dynamic Media requires additional configurations, integrations, and services that are not available out of the box in the local AEM SDK environment.

• Create a new AEM instance (author or publish) and connect it to a Dynamic Media service.
• Once the AEM instance is connected to Dynamic Media, you can configure the necessary Dynamic Media settings, including viewers, presets, and other configurations.
• With the separate AEM instance set up and the Dynamic Media configurations in place, you can now test the Dynamic Media components, such as the Image core component (v3) that you mentioned. Verify if the Dynamic Media features and configurations are working as expected in this dedicated environment.
