Create a content fragment using a workflow?

[fedeperez]

Hi, i need to create a Content Fragment using workflow, is there some way to do it? Or there's some workflow components that allows me to do that?

@fedeperez You can write custom process step using AssetHttp API to create Content fragment.

Hi @fedeperez 

Here sharing some sample code you can refer and implement in workflow.

To create a content fragment, you can use ‘create’ API reference from ‘com.adobe.cq.dam.cfm ContentFragmentManager’.

//reference the Content Fragment Manager
@reference
private ContentFragmentManager fragmentManager;

private void createFrag() {
/** fragmentManager.create helps to create a content fragment
parent – The location where the content fragment should be created (for eg. “/content/dam/fragments”)
template – the content fragment template to refer while creating the new fragment
my-test-fragment – name of the fragment
My Test Fragment – title of the fragment **/

ContentFragment myFragment = fragmentManager.create(parent, template, “my-test-fragment”, “My Test Fragment”);

}

Programmatically accessing a content fragment

We need ‘com.adobe.cq.dam.cfm.ContentFragment’ API reference to access a content fragment

//Get the resource of content fragment as below.
Resource fragmentResource = resourceResolver.getResource(“/content/dam/fragments/my-test-fragment”);

//Adapt it to a fragment resource
if (fragmentResource != null) {
ContentFragment fragment = fragmentResource.adaptTo(ContentFragment.class);
// the resource is now accessible through the API
}
