Customize the CQ-DAM search panel

That is a good question. I will pass this question to the Eng team.

Creating a predicate to filter assets that have a pending activation is something that is not documented. But we will add this to the list. 

Thank you smacdonald2008! I'll be waiting for any news from Eng team. For our customer is important to have a list with the next assets planned to be published. I think it should be a very interesting functionality for many others customers...

I agree -  this will make a good community article - i will add this to our list to document.

I have passed this question to the Eng team. I am hoping to hear back from them soon. 

In addition, it would be great to know how to add the 'Status' column to the search panel, because this column is only visible in the 'Digital Assets' panel. Without the 'Status' column in the search panel, we will get the results, but we won't have the information about the planned publish date.

Thank you again :-)

Hi smacdonald2008.

I've tried with a dummy component to test the ReplicationStatus.isPending() functionality (code at [1]). But the isPending() method always return 'false'. I've tried with a 'no activated' image, but with the activation pending marked in the 'status' column.

For recheck purposes, I've tried with activated images too, with and without pending activation, and getLastReplicationAction() is working fine, but isPending() always return 'false'.

Could you help me? Any advice will be very appreciated.

Hi smacdonald2008!

Have you been able to ask the last question to Eng. Team (about the 'isPending()' method)?

Could you help me, please? Any advise will be veru appreciated!

Thank you very much!

With your code - you can never get a return value of true?  I will pass this to the Eng team again.

Are you using the right user session ?   All damadmin uses same API & indicates status so should work.  Try with admin session instead of user session & verify.

@smacdonald2008: Correct: I never get a return value of true. This is a screenshot of the images referenced in the code:

As you could see, both images has pending activation. One of them is published, and the other is not published.

@Sham HC: I've made the tests with admin user, so I suppose the user session should not be the problem. Correct?

Thank you very much to both.
