any way to create usable URL for cloud AEM author instances, instead of https://author-p29345-f121051.adobeaemcloud.com/ etc.

We have 7 AEM cloud envs, e.g. 

dev = https://author-p29234-f121051.adobeaemcloud.com/

uat = https://author-p23425-e098098.adobeaemcloud.com/

prod = https://author-p29345-f121058.adobeaemcloud.com/ 

etc.

 

The problem is, it's impossible to remember these, or know which env you are on.

You might think you are on dev, create or delete some content, then realise its uat, screwing up the testing.

 

Is there any way to create a nice name/url?  

 

Neither DNS CNAMES nor Aliases work.

Hi @tb3dock 

 

No there is no way we can update these URLs.

But you can think of using "AEM Environment Indicator" from ACS Commons with which you can define a color code for each of the environment and using that you can identify which environment it is.

Thanks!

    Hi, thanks for that. Unfortunately, this article only applies to on prem AEM. Cloud AEM does not allow editing or viewing of the OSGI properties. We can do it through code, but for that we need to know the name of the osgi configuration file. Any ideas what this might be?

      Whats AACS?


      @tb3dock It's AEM as Cloud Service.

        Hi @tb3dock ,

         

        There is no way we can change the urls, but Adobe is working on this.

        Custom Author environments' domains - Adobe Experience League Community - 413262

         

        As suggested by @asutosh_jena_, you can use "AEM Environment Indicator" .

         

        Hope this helps!!
        Thanks
