Disable Copy Paste option for particular component

[sam2k8]

I am using AEM 6.5,

Let's imagine I have AEM components "Component A" 

I want to disable Copy, Cut and Paste option for this particular component.

How can I achieve that programmatically?

This can be achieved by using cq:actions, please find more here: https://experienceleague.adobe.com/docs/experience-manager-65/developing/components/components-basic...

For example:

<jcr:root xmlns:cq="https://www.day.com/jcr/cq/1.0" xmlns:jcr="https://www.jcp.org/jcr/1.0"
    cq:actions="[edit,delete,insert]"
    cq:layout="editbar"
    jcr:primaryType="cq:EditConfig"/>

Config applied:

Result:

@sam2k8  if you are looking for a custom solution follow below js code

(function ($, ns, channel, window, undefined) {
// Function to disable copy-paste for the component
function disableCopyPaste() {
// Disable copy-paste on component's elements
$('.your-component-class').on('copy paste', function (event) {
event.preventDefault();
return false;
});
}

// Wait for the foundation-contentloaded event to ensure the component has loaded
channel.on('foundation-contentloaded', function (event) {
var $component = $('.your-component-class');

if ($component.length) {
disableCopyPaste();
}
});
})(jQuery, Granite.author, jQuery(document), this);

Replace 'your-component-class' with the CSS class name of your component.

If you are looking for OOTB feature as suggested by @EstebanBustamante  you can edit it in the cq:editConfig

Hi,

To programmatically disable Copy, Cut, and Paste options for a specific component in AEM 6.5:

1. Create a custom context-aware configuration under the component's folder.
2. Add a property named cq:disableAction with a value of copy cut paste to the cq:actions node.
3. Replicate the configuration to necessary language folders if applicable.
4. After making these changes, the options will be disabled for the component in the AEM authoring interface.
