Hi there
I’ve written a custom SlingServlet that transforms custom XML feeds into RSS format. I’ve deployed the servlet and can hit it directly when logged in into AEM via a URL like http://localhost:4502/bin/wcm/external-feeds/transform?urlParam1=abc&urlParam2=xyz. That call returns an xml document.
Now, I'm trying to use that servlet call as the value for the "URL" field in the Feed Importer e.g.:
However, the polling importer is returning a HTTP 401; here is the output from the logs:
19.12.2013 15:11:35.462 *INFO* [ObservationManager] com.day.cq.polling.importer.impl.PollingImporterImpl addResource: Registering PollConfig PollConfig(/etc/importers/polling/1_1387483895125): scheme=rss,source=http://localhost:4502/bin/wcm/external-feeds/transform?urlParam1=abc&urlParam2=xyz,target=/content/u...

My question is, how do I resolve this? Only AEM will ever call this servlet, specifically the AEM Feed Importer, so how do I give it access? Alternatively, how do I configure anonymous access to the sling servlet? I've read a lot of Sling documentation, but don't see a clear way of how to do this.
Thanks in advance

We have an example of a outside client hitting a Sling Servlet that does not require authentication. See this article:

Define using sling.auth.requirements service property with "-" so that you get anonymous access http://sling.apache.org/documentation/the-sling-engine/authentication/authentication-framework.html#...

Hi Scott,
I saw that thread, but it didn't seem as though there was a clear answer i.e. no reply marked correct.
This is occurring on my authoring server, but is the answer to set /libs/cq/security/config.publish/com.day.cq.wcm.foundation.impl.HTTPAuthHandler > auth.http.nologin to false? If so, what are the consequences of that change?
Thanks.

IMHO, you should not allow anything to read from the Author environment without authorization. If it is not public on an publish instance, then it should not be able to get the info without having the correct security credentials.
