Closing a site export data

Hi

 

The organisation that I work for has a subsidiary with its website built in Adobe Experience Manager.

 

The subsidiary is closing down and I have been asked to export all the content (pages, databases etc) so they can be stored for historical reference. I currently have access to the website as an Administrator but don't have access to the AEM CMS to see if this is possible, but could arrange access if necessary.

 

Is it possible to export the content from the CMS without having to manually save the pages as PDFs and databases as CSV manually?

 

Thanks

Gary

Hi @garym12587067 ,

 

There is one option through which you can export page and children information using AEM sites-

https://experienceleague.adobe.com/docs/experience-manager-64/authoring/authoring/csv-export.html?lang=en

 

You can also create package using http://<HOST>:<PORT>/crx/packmgr

https://experienceleague.adobe.com/docs/experience-manager-64/administering/contentmanagement/package-manager.html?lang=en

 

Also, if you have any external database/downstream APIs through which you are pulling the data in AEM system then you have to take care of that separately since that is outside AEM system.

I suggest to also backup crx-quickstart folder and external blob store if applicable in your case.
