Exporting data stored in CQ scaffolds

[jond1978]

Hi,

We are in a situation where we need to export the data stored in CQ's scaffold structure in excel format (Our initial plan is to make use of Excel's power query for the same). Is there a built in way to export the JCR data into json feed, or should we need to create a custom service for the purpose?

Thanks in advance

Hi 

You can achieve this by :-

Option 1 

Link:- https://docs.adobe.com/docs/en/aem/6-0/develop/ref/javadoc/org/apache/sling/commons/json/jcr/JsonJcr...

There is a Class, JsonJcrNode, this class makes it easy to create a json object out of a JCR node.

//

public class JsonJcrNode

extends JSONObject

This class makes it easy to create a JSON object out of a JCR node. It is a shameless copy of JsonItemWriter, but instead of writing the resulting JSON directly to an output, you get a JSONObject that you can deal with.

Option 2

Link:- https://docs.adobe.com/docs/en/aem/6-1/develop/components/pageinfo.html

//Obtaining page information in json Format

I hope this would help you.

Thanks and Regards
