How to get Brandportal collaborators in AEM?

Hi,
whenever we collaborate on something with the brand portal using the Asset contribution folder, we don't see who has uploaded the image in image properties in the brand portal. Also, this user id is crucial for us to flow back to AEM to know and understand who has published the image back into the AEM.

Any Idea how we can achieve this? 
Thanks,

Hello @mrudulmo - 

Are you using AEM on premise?

If yes, 

Here is what you can do : 

  1. Modify the Asset workflow in AEM to include a step that captures the user information before publishing the asset to the Brand Portal. This step can extract the user ID and store it as metadata associated with the asset.

  2. Extend the metadata schema for assets in AEM to include a field specifically for storing the user ID who uploaded the image. This field will capture the user information during the asset workflow.

  3. Customize the integration between AEM and the Brand Portal to pass the user ID as metadata when publishing the asset. This may involve modifying the integration code or implementing custom API calls to include the user ID in the metadata payload.

  4. Update the Brand Portal's image properties display to show the user ID metadata field alongside other asset information. This customization will enable users to see who uploaded the image within the Brand Portal.

 

If you are using AEM as a cloud service, you can rather use Asset Share Commons package for the same.

Hi @tanika02 , 

Thanks for jotting this down. 
Just to give you more insight,

We are not publishing Assets from AEM to BP. It is the other way around. We are only publishing the contribution folder created in AEM; to Brand portal.

There might be case a user-A would create the Asset Contribution folder and publish it to BP. 
From the brand portal whoever uploads the image (not necessarily User A) and publishes it back to AEM. So, the user who uploads/replicates the image in BP, back to AEM  should be captured in the image metadata and that data we need to have in AEM. 

Thanks,
