Hello,

We would like to have AEM use a custom UserManager service to get the users / groups from an external registry.

What do we have to develop : I guess a configuration and a Service.

How to integrate these as a default ?

Thanks for any sugegstion.

Hi there,

Thanks for reaching out to Adobe Community.

As per my knowledge not sure whether it is possible to do that. But the behavior of the AEM 6 user interface can be extended. 

Please have a look at the below community article to know more:

In addition to modifying the UI for the new service - you would use Jackrabbit User Manager APIs to handle user and group functionality. See this article for information about using Jackrabbit User Manager APIs:

Thanks for all replies.

I managed to do this writing my own login module.
