AEM Sling Content Distribution Event Listener

[rampai]

Hi All,

As AEM as a Cloud Service is based on Sling Content Distribution mechanism, are there any references on how to create a custom event handler that can capture the content distribution event and whether it was an ADD or a DELETE that was triggered?

I am going through the sling documentation but if there is anyone who has already done this, would appreciate your support.

Thanks,

Ram

Hi @rampai ,

The Sling event handler can be utilized for this requirement which is org.osgi.service.event.EventHandler.

Eventually we are touching the node (ADDED/REMOVED, etc) and sling event will be able to capture that. In handler itself you can check the type of event.

You can watch this video for more understanding.
