crx/packmgr/update.jsp 404

Hi everyone,

I run into an issue with crx/packmgr/update.jsp. I try to update my package using python and requests.

params_aempage = {

        'groupName': group_name,

        'packageName': package_aempage,

        'path': '/etc/packages/{0}/{1}.zip'.format(group_name, package_aempage),

        'filter': json.dumps(cq_list),

        '_charset_': 'utf-8'

    }

url_update = 'my_url/crx/packmgr/update.jsp'

response = requests.get(url_update, data=json.dumps(params_aempage), headers=headers)

I receive 415 error,I understand why this error occur because  json file which I try to send can be large.

However when change method get to be post  I get 404 . So I have now Idea how I can avoid it.What can you recommend?

Thank you.

      According to this link Adobe Experience Manager (AEM) API   should be good I can use method POST for /crx/packmgr/update.jsp but I face 404  when method get works fine

        Yes, I also noticed  '/crx/packmgr/update.jsp' doesn't work for 6.4

        Adobe Experience Manager (AEM) API​ is an old swagger link for OAK 1.2+ which still works in AEM 6.1

        6.3 and 6.4 docs, Using cURL with AEM, do not mention about this use case. I'm not sure if updating filters is still supported. Probably something for Scott/team to comment on.


        I can update only with method GET however sometimes I run into 414 error, it happens cuz url too long I pass to many roots to update.I changed method GET to POST which doesn't work I get 404 error.

          Are you trying to update package details like name, description, group from external application. Make sure to provide login-token or authenticate with repository

          More details will be helpful.

            I do provide login credential (login, password).I  try to send this dictionary

            params_aempage = {

                    'groupName': group_name,

                    'packageName': package_aempage,

                    'path': '/etc/packages/{0}/{1}.zip'.format(group_name, package_aempage),

                    'filter': json.dumps(cq_list),

                    '_charset_': 'utf-8'

                }

            it works with method get if the dictionary is small but does not  work if the dictionary is huge.I change method get to post and I get 404.

              For AEM 6.3 and above, please follow the below method for adding filters as the curl to http://localhost:4502/crx/packmgr/update.jsp is giving 404.
