Hello Guys
We are exploring the option of content migration from CQ5 to Headless CMS ie Contentful. I would like to build the tool which can:
1) Inspect the components in AEM / CQ5
2) Identify their schema
3) Create a similar schema in Contentful
4) Then migrate the AEM content into Contentful
Does CQ5 provide any API to export the Component as XML or JSON? I can see Json export for component but I am not sure if this is there for CQ5? Any reference would be of great help.
Thanks

Hi @Kailash07
You can make the page rqeuest with infinity.json and it will give the complete content structure in JSON format in AEM.
Sample here:
http://localhost:4502/content/wknd/language-masters/en/magazine.infinity.json
Thanks!

Hi @Kailash07!
There are several ways to export content from AEM. Let me list some of them:
That being said, in my experience migrating from one CMS to another usually comes with some kind of transformation and restructuring of existing content. Sometimes it is even easier - and can support certain business goals - to create new content from scratch instead of migrating the old. Personally, I've never seen a 1:1 migration of content between different content management systems. I don't have a background on Contentful but for many systems you will be facing a completely different approach to content hierarchy and/or storage and it may be a very tough job to do a purely technical migration.
Hope that helps!
