[AEMasaCS]How to input the values of rep:itemNames in the permission settings

[HughShao]

Hi All,

I am trying to utilize the restrictions to limit the access to the nodes in permission settings. However, when I look into rep:itemNames, I cannot find the right way to input multiple values in permissions module of AEM console.

Not working if I input:
rep:itemNames = "au,us,fr"       //when clicking edit, they are displayed as: rep:itemNames=au, rep:itemNames=us, ....
or
rep:itemNmaes = "au, us, fr"
or
rep:itemNmaes = "au", "us", "fr"

I cannot find any useful documents easily. Any ideas, please? 

Thanks.

Hi @HughShao 
Try with 

rep:itemNames = "[au,us,fr]"

Hi @arunpatidar 

Still not working. Looks like not able to input in this format.

Getting error with this format for rep:itemNames

javax.jcr.ValueFormatException: Invalid name: [au, us, fr]

Ahh ok, you are trying from AEM console

You need add one by one and after that you would open it again, it would combine the field.
example, I added ae and de separately and after opened it is combined.

Adding them one by one is working for me! Thank you.

It looks like rep:itemNames only return the node with no properties. Is there any easy to way to read properties, please?

Hi @HughShao 
how are you reading this properties ? using java?

Hi @arunpatidar 

No, I am not using the code. Instead, I am using AEM console as you said. And in AEM console, I'm setting the restrictions like below for an user group. However, when viewing as this group user, I find only able to see the node name but no properties like jcr:title, etc.

Hi @HughShao 
There are no other information except rep:itemNames stored in the node to show in UI

Hi @HughShao 
Try like this
rep:itemNames = "au,us,fr"
This should work, and when you edit it, you may see each value as a separate entry.

Multiple Lines:

rep:itemNames = au
rep:itemNames = us
rep:itemNames = fr

Array Syntax:
rep:itemNames = [au, us, fr]

Hi @Raja_Reddy ,

rep:itemNames = "au,us,fr" is not wokring. However, when edit it, as you say, it does display as sperate ashout: 

rep:itemNames="au",rep:itemNames="us",rep:itemNames="fr"

After saving it without any changes, it is working now... Just the format looks like weird.

Also, rep:itemNames is only reading the node instead of its properties (e.g. node title). Any idea how to get node title together? ^.^
