Can we extract AEM Authors list?

[#1]

Hello Everyone,

I was checking if there is any way for us to extract the AEM Authors list? Basically I have to get the list of authors and their last logged in, depending upon the result have to be doing a house-keeping job.

Thanks in advance.

Arvind.

Hi,

AEM does not store login details.

For the housekeeping, you can identify the active users following criteria:

1. Get All users who have created page/assets after XYZ date

2. Get all the users who have modified page/assets after XYZ date

3. Get all the users who have activated/deactivated page/assets after XYZ date

You can fetch above using simple QueryBuilder or SQL2 queries.

Based on the results, you can deactivate unwanted users.

YOu can write a custom solution that can query authors and then dump them into a SPREADSHEET.
