Adobe Experience Manager Headless

I am using AEM 6.5 (Cloud SDK) with the old Content Fragment editor view.In my Content Fragment Model, I configured a Fragment Reference field with the following settings: Render As: Multiple Field Min Number of Items: 2 Max Number of Items: 4 However, when I create a Content Fragment based on this model, I am still able to: Add only 1 referenced fragment Save the Content Fragment successfully Max items works as expected The system does not block the save operation even though the minimum number of items is set to 2.My Questions: Is this expected behavior in AEM 6.5 (classic/old editor)? Are Min/Max item constraints only UI-level guidance and not server-side enforced? Is there any way to strictly enforce the minimum item count without custom development? Does this behavior differ in the new Content Fragment Editor or in AEM as a Cloud Service? I also checked CRXDE under:/conf/wknd/settings/dam/cfm/models/wknd-content-fragment-modelThe minItems property is correctly set, b

We have need to query GraphQL in AEM for specific content fragments with a title (for example) of X or Y. That’s easy enough to do with a query like this. This is the most common example I see.  query getAdventuresByActivity( $activity1: String! $activity2: String!) { adventureList(filter: { adventureActivity: { _logOp: OR _expressions: [ { value: $activity1 } { value: $activity2 } ] } }) { items { _path adventureTitle adventureActivity adventurePrice adventureTripLength } }} Then followed by a variable like this. { "activity1": "Surfing", "activity2": "Rock Climbing"}The issue is that we’d like to be able to query on n number of variables and there doesn’t seem to be a facility for this. You can pass in a dynamic filter expression to the persisted query, but this only works in Graphiql. I’m wondering what other folks out there are doing for a problem like this. Are you simply making multiple single filter calls t

HiI am getting this error on trying to instantiate new Document.I am using gradle with dependency com.adobe.aemfd:aemfd-client-sdk: 6.0.904I don’t see this class in the jar either. Is there any other dependency I should add to resolve this issue?Thanks!

in graphiql explorer, the query works normally: but in postman, I get this error: 

Hi Everyone, How to provide a preview experience (or a WYSIWIG editor) for a native mobile app that uses AEM headless for content delivery? Content is authored on 'AEM sites' pages using core components that expose data as .model.json For an SPA or a web app, using the SPA editor or universal editor makes this possible. But how to approach this for a brand that has only native apps and no web presence?Please recommend any possible or recommended approaches that you might have encounteredThanks in advance!

We have following persisted query: http://localhost:4502/graphql/execute.json/test-project/get-articles-by-path%3BstartsWith%3D%2Fcontent%2Fdam%2Ftest-project The GraphQL query has the parameter "startsWith" which takes a path like this:  query getArticlesByPath($startsWith: ID!) { articleCfmList(filter: { _path: { _expressions: [ { value: $startsWith _operator: STARTS_WITH }] } }) { items { ...   It works perfectly fine on author and publisher but when sending the same request to the dispatcher it will not send the request correctly to the publisher because the encoded path is not correctly transmitted.We have tried it with directive AllowEncodedSlashes NoDecodebut it didn't help. What is the correct dispatcher setting for these kind of parameters?

Hi community, I'm new to Adobe Experience Manager (AEM) and I'm particularly interested in learning about headless adaptive forms especially developing with JSON Schema instead of GraphQL.I don't yet have any AEM license, as I'd like to first understand and explore the platform before committing to a subscription.I've read that it's possible to set up AEM locally and also the AEM as a Cloud Service SDK, for development and learning purposes. However, I haven't been able to find clear instructions or a direct download link - most resources redirect me to the enterprise page, which says my Adobe ID isn't linked to a subscription.So, my questions are:How can a new developer (without an enterprise account) start learning and building on AEM?Is there any free developer sandbox or trial setup available for learning?What's the recommended learning path to get started with hands-on development, evaluate features, and build skills before subscribing?Thanks in advance for your help!

Hello everyone, I'm looking to migrate from an old, headful CMS to AEM Headless. The database of our current headful CMS is PostgreSQL 15, and the content is marked up with a proprietary template. We plan to distribute information to multiple devices, such as native apps and IoT devices, and therefore want to use GraphQL.Does anyone have information on how to migrate from a third-party CMS like this? I understand that the Content Transfer Tool (CTT) is for data migration between AEM instances, but what's the best practice for migrating data from another CMS?https://experienceleague.adobe.com/ja/docs/experience-manager-cloud-service/content/migration-journey/cloud-migration/content-transfer-tool/overview-content-transfer-tool Thanks.

Hi All,I'm trying to exclude certain pages from the sitemap in Edge Delivery Services by updating the helix-query.yaml file. However, the changes are not being reflected when I access query-index.json.Even after publishing page, the last-modified date does update , but any structural changes—such as excluding paths or adding new properties—are not reflected in the output. Additionally, changes to the helix-sitemap.yaml file behave similarly and don’t seem to take effect.Here's a sample of the change I made in helix-query.yamlversion: 1indices: default: include: - '/**' exclude: - '/**.json' - '/configuration/**' - '/nav' - '/footer/**' - '/metadata/**' - '/index/vlp' - '/fragments/**' - '/style-guide/**' - '/spreadsheets/**' target: /query-index.json properties: lastModified: select: none value: parseTimestamp(headers["last-modified"], "ddd, DD MMM YYYY hh:mm:ss GMT") title: select: main h1:fi

Hi,My name is Vimal, and I am currently working as a MEAN Stack Developer. I’m very enthusiastic about transitioning into Adobe Experience Manager (AEM) development, as I find its powerful capabilities in content management and digital experience delivery truly inspiring.I'm writing to kindly seek your guidance on how I can get started with AEM.While I'm passionate and eager to learn, I’m facing a few challenges:In my region, very few organizations have access to Adobe Experience Platform, which makes hands-on experience difficult to obtain.I’m unsure how to access the necessary base files, such as AEM author/publish JARs for local setup and development.I would be grateful if you could let me know:If Adobe provides student programs, developer sandboxes, or trial licenses specifically for learning or self-paced development.Where can I download AEM JAR files for local use?How to set up a basic AEM environment for learning purposes.Are there any official documentation or training res

Hi community,We are implementing Sling Dynamic Include (SDI) to include the header and footer components in AEM as a Cloud Service. The necessary configurations have been set up on the dispatcher, but the components are not rendering as expected.We are encountering the following error:🔹 [an error occurred while processing this directive]Before further troubleshooting, we would like to confirm:Is SDI fully supported in AEM as a Cloud Service?Does the AEM Cloud Service Dispatcher include the mod_include.so module by default?Any insights or recommendations would be greatly appreciated.Thanks!

If anyone is aware of any freelance opportunities or platforms where AEM freelance work is frequently posted, I'd really appreciate your guidance or referrals. I have a hand experience in AEM development both FE and BE.  Let me know if anything available    

Hi everyone, In the Universal Editor, we use a JSON-based component definition where "component": "richtext" is utilized to handle rich text content.In AEM Sites, we have the ability to customize the Rich Text Editor (RTE) by adding custom plugins or configurations to meet specific requirements—such as adding proper spacing between text blocks or applying specific formatting rules.My question is:Does Edge Delivery Services (EDS) support any method to customize the richtext component in a similar way?Specifically, I'm looking to implement custom spacing behavior in authored rich text content.Is there an API, plugin mechanism, or any configuration option to extend or modify the behavior of the richtextcomponent within EDS?Any documentation reference or practical example would be appreciated.Thanks in advance!

I have reviewed the following query and noticed that I have a similar use case, but it require only the Universal Editor feature. So, whenever the client opens a page created using an editable template in AEM, it will automatically open in the Universal Editor, allowing them to make any modifications.However, my questions are different:1. Will the Universal Editor feature be available for AEM Site Template pages in the future? As far as I know, it’s currently only available for Editable Dynamic Sites (EDS). Is that correct?2. If I want to move my AEM site to the Universal Editor, do I need to enable instrumentation for all core components as well as custom components?3. Is instrumentation also required for Experience Fragments?4. How will template policies and the style system be handled in this case?5. What about Page Properties?I referred to the documentation and successfully edited a text component using the Universal EditorHowever, I will need to enable this for each component indi

Hi Community,We are currently in the process of migrating our AMS-based application to AEM as a Cloud Service (AEMaaCS). For content migration, we are using the Content Transfer Tool (CTT) to bring content from the AMS production environment to our AEMaaCS environments (Dev, Stage, and eventually Prod).However, during each migration (Prod to Dev, and Prod to Stage), we are encountering several challenges, such as:Missing content after the migrationAuthoring issues post-migrationWe’re concerned that similar issues might affect the production environment as well, and we’re looking for ways to minimize risk and ensure smooth content transfer.One workaround we’re considering is:Creating packages in Stage (which has already been validated)Deploying those validated packages directly to ProductionWe’d like to understand:Is this a recommended practice?Are there any better tools or approaches for cloud-to-cloud content transfer that are more reliable and production-safe?Any suggestions or best

I have a graphql query which takes IDFilter! as parameter and this works fine in the graphql editor and when i try to request from postman i am getting "Variable 'paths' has an invalid value: Variable 'paths' has coerced Null value for NonNull type 'IDFilter!'"exception. My Graphql Queryquery ($expression:IDFilter!) {internetList(filter: {_path: $expression}) {items {_path}}}Graphql Variables{   "expression":{      "_logOp":"OR",      "_expressions":[         {             "_operator": "EQUALS",            "value":"/content/dam/sample/content-fragments/internet/internet1"         },         {            "_operator": "EQUALS",            "value":"/content/dam/sample/content-fragments/internet/internet2"         

At Present, We use content fragments in AEM and we have multiple team consume CF using assets API.I noticed that in my environment, the api request to author instance  requires authentication whereas request exposed by the publish instance are served without authentication. I need to expose the api through the dispatcher to internet but I would like to be authentication protected. What does adobe recommended solution for this implementation? 

Hi Community,I'm encountering an issue while deploying to AEM as a Cloud Service. The deployment fails at the "Update services" step, and the error message states:"The deployment failed due to a system issue. Contact Adobe Support if the issue recurs."Here’s what I’ve observed so far:Update Indexes → FinishedBuild Transform → FinishedUpdate services → FailedInstall mutable content → RunningHas anyone else faced this issue? What are some potential troubleshooting steps I can try before reaching out to Adobe Support? Any insights would be greatly appreciated!Thanks!

We are migrating our AEM instance from AEM 6.5 to AEM as a Cloud Service (AEMaaCS). In our current implementation, we use a JCR Event Listener that listens to all component changes. Whenever inheritance is canceled for a component, the listener adds the property:cq:isCancelledForChildren = trueto the parent node.Problem:During the migration assessment using BPA (Best Practices Analyzer), we found that JCR Event Listeners are flagged as an issue because they are not recommended in AEMaaCS due to performance concerns.Question:What is the best alternative approach in AEMaaCS to achieve the same functionality? Some potential options I’m considering:ResourceChangeListener – Can it effectively replace the JCR Event Listener for this use case ,but it is also getting flagged in bpa report?Workflow Launcher – Would this be a viable alternative to automatically add cq:isCancelledForChildren = true when inheritance is canceled?sling jobs – Could a scheduled job periodically check and up

Hi,I want to use GraphQL for searching and building a listing page with pagination. As I explored, I understand that GraphQL supports offset, limit, sorting etc. but I couldn't find a way to get the total number of results to achieve pagination with page number.It would be really helpful if anyone can suggest how can we achieve it using GraphQL. Thanks in advance.

Does AEM allow replacement of an asset (image or pdf) whilst retaining metadata, title etc?I have read that this should be possible via a 'replace' button when the asset is selected but I don't see this option.

Hello, I would like to request data via GraphQL query based on a Tag multifield like this:The parameters to return this data should be for example:["wknd-shared:season/summer"]["wknd-shared:season/summer", "wknd-shared:season/spring"]I tried this query:query ($adventureTags: [String]) { adventureList( filter: { adventureTags: {_logOp: OR, _expressions: [{values: $adventureTags, _operator: EQUALS}]} }) { items { _path adventureTags } } }It's only returning data if I add all parameters like this["wknd-shared:season/summer", "wknd-shared:season/spring"]but does not return anything for this["wknd-shared:season/summer"]Additionally I've tried to request the data with the persisted queries and the default cloud sdk dispatcher config like this:http://localhost:8080/graphql/execute.json/wknd-shared/adventures-all%3BadventureTags%3D%5B%22wknd-shared%3Aseason%2Fsummer%22%2C%22wknd-shared%3Aseason%2Fspring%22%5D%3BBut that does not return any data.
