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 ?

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.
