AEM REST APIs

[Former Community Member]

Hi All,

I am wondering if I can compete the following use cases with the AEM 6.2 REST APIs or if I will need to hit the SOAP APIs?

GET /folders/contents

GET /folders/{id}/contents

GET /folders/metadata

GET /folders/{id}/metadata

GET /files | GET /files/{id}

GET /files/{id}/metadata

GET /files/metadata

Thanks!!

AEM does not expose a WSDL. You cannot communicate with AEM using SOAP. You can, however write a custom service that consumes a 3rd party SOAP service:

You need to use GET. POST requests to invoke AEM operations. 

Hope this helps...
