Creating Asset in publish instance

Hi all,

Trying to see if there is a way to create an asset via AssetManager and have that available on the publish instance. We need to run the service on publish as we're only getting the correct alternate language links in the publish instance and not on author. Would there potentially be a way to run the service on the publish instance and a follow up service that would be responsible for creating / saving the asset into the dam?

Alternately, we're also looking into possibly finding out why the PageTreeSitemapGenerator alternate links method returns different url maps when both seem to have the same language copies.

Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

It is hard to say; maybe there is something wrong with the MSM or the way the copies were created or updated. So, while a content update could be required, maybe this is something a dev should update and not necessarily a content author, for example, I've seen missing nodes that MSM requires or bad references that needed to be fixed "manually".

I think you can create some service and target it to run just on your publish instance based on run mode. 
But I would be more interested in what are the differences observed in the url map ?  I would think there might be some differences due to externalizing the links which would be due to Day CQ Link Externalizer configuration which should be expected.
Could you give some more details on this ?

    Hi, rather than the format of the urls being generated within the map, it's the returned map that seems to be differing between run modes. Even for the OOTB sitemap generator, I'm seeing the same differences where the alternate language url map is much shorter and missing key references for the author run mode. 

    as for the service, we've currently made it run specifically on the publish run mode but we're having trouble creating the asset via assetmanager as we did before.

      Could you share some sample for the differences that you are observing ?

        Hi,

        Are you using AEMaaCS or an on-premise version? Just FYI, AssetManager has been deprecated and is no longer recommended. You can refer to this link: Experience Manager Cloud Service - Developer Reference Material APIs. I believe the best approach is to understand what's going on between the author and publisher content. If I understood correctly, the language copies are forcing you to create assets directly on the publishers, and also the sitemap is not functioning as it should for the same reason. If so, It seems to me that the root cause of your issue lies with the live copies, so addressing that first might put you in a better position to tackle your requirements.

         

        Hope this helps!

          Hi Esteban,

          Yes, this is AEMaaCS. Yes, I do agree that it most likely seems to be some sort of issue stemming from the live copies on the authoring instance. I wanted to explore alternative methods as I was under the impression that addressing those issues would require re-authoring of content. Would this be correct?
