Exposing DAM images to external applications

  • July 13, 2023

We are trying to load DAM images through an external application. 

 

We provided Anonymous user , an access to the DAM folder and Apache Sling Authentication service configuration was updated to ignore the authentication for the DAM folder.

 

Upon trying to load the image externally within image source <img src="DAM URL PATH"> the image does not load.

 

Please help suggest.

As per your explanation you are trying to consume assets from aem author on 3rd party application which won’t be recommended if you have publisher and dispatcher setup for your environment.

With those authentication in place how are you accessing the image via image source.

best way is to use the assets from dispatcher/CDN location.

Hi,

Are you able to see the images in DAM and available for drag and drop to image component? What is the url for the image? 

Check whether there are any permissions added to the image to render.

    Hi @sonalik30429345, You can publish the image and use it via dispatchers.

      You must expose the images through the dispatcher, which means the images need to be activated (published) and there should be filters accordingly in the dispatchers to allow access to them.

          Admin , Please unmark above answer as correct as it’s unrelated to the issue -

           

          The error on browser is Cross-Origin Read Blocking (CORB) blocked cross origin response with MIME text/HTML 

           

          Are there any specific configurations related to this we need to do on AEM for images to show up ?

            If you use the images directly in the HTML you won't have any CORS issues, but if you are calling through JS then you may have issues with CORS, that's not specified in your question, please refer to this for understanding how to solve CORS issues: https://www.albinsblog.com/2018/08/how-to-enable-cross-origin-resource-sharing-support-in-aem.html
