Hi All,

We are trying to upload assets from S3 bucket to AEM through AWS Lambda Functions.

Was trying through curl command ,solution seems to be not working for this setup as we need to convert the input stream of S3 Object to file and then write to AEM instance. But the problem is we will not be able to save the converted file in any temp location as the standalone Java code will be triggered from AWS Lambda.

Could you please let us know if there is any approach to upload the assets to AEM from S3 directly? Please note that we need to upload assets selectively based on some conditions which we are handling in AWS Lambda (Standalone Java Class).

Hi @sanjanas3080058 ,

You can use Asset HTTP API available. we have CRUD operations support for all REST operations.

Also, I believe you can use S3 Asset Ingestor utility since you have some conditions written in AWS lambda.

Hi @ritesh_mittal,

Thanks for your reply. Can we access the S3 Asset Ingestor utility programatically?

Also I tried to make use of Assets HTTP API's below request, but the problem I am facing is that from S3 bucket I would be getting it as input stream and if you notice "@myPicture.png" would be an actual file. I tried sending the inputstream directly but that would give me a bad request error. Any help would be really appreciated 🙂
