Download assets or folders directly from DAM

Hi,

we have a requirement to download the full folder of the images to my local system, we can't achieve it by using package manager, as the package will contain all the context xml files and the images and pdf's are stored as renditions, which will not give the exact folder structure as well.

as shown in the below screenshots, if we select the folder using touch UI and click on download, it will download the images in a zip file with the folder hierarchy as in like a windows explorer, can we use any CURL command to directly trigger this kind of download in AEM.

You can look into building the CURL command for that process using the article at [1]

UI console is triggering the event via

/libs/dam/gui/coral/components/admin/downloadasset/clientlibs/downloadasset/downloadasset.js

which is in turn using Download assets from AEM

Checking of it, you see below for /content/dam/we-retail/en/people folder

URL :

/content/dam/we-retail/en/people.assetdownload.zip/People.zip

Parameters :

{"path":["%2Fcontent%2Fdam%2Fwe-retail%2Fen%2Fpeople"],"_charset_":"utf-8","downloadAssets":"true","downloadRenditions":"false","downloadSubassets":"undefined","flatStructure":"true","licenseCheck":"true","s7exportsettings":""}

Hi Nirmal,

i tried with below curl command and its downloading the zip file. only issue that i found is once extracted its creating separate folder with file name just before the actual file.

curl -u admin:admin -X POST http://localhost:4502/content/dam/we-retail/en/people.assetdownload.zip/People.zip -d '{"path":["/content/dam/we-retail/en/people"],"_charset_":"utf-8","downloadAssets":"true","downloadRenditions":"false","downloadSubassets":"undefined","flatStructure":"false","licenseCheck":"true","s7exportsettings":""} -O

i was able to solve this by passing the data in urlencoded format and in raw form not in json format
