exporting annotations

hello. is it possible to export annotations from pages in AEM? and if so, how?

 

to keep track of comments, we'd like to include them in a table or spreadsheet. so far, it is possible to manually click on each annotation to copy and paste the comments into Excel. however, this is time consuming especially for files with more than 50 annotations.

 

thanks in advance for any thoughts or guidance on a more automated method.

 

kindest regards,

baz

Hi,

The annotation saved in the page tree, a speacial node cq:annotations contains all the annotations, you can simply query this node using querybuilder and get only text or whichever property you want in a json format and convert into csv using simple javascript.

    the annotations saved under cq:annotations node as a child node, the properties are text and x,y to get details.
