Insert reference component in a table cell

[Jit]

Is it possible to insert a reference component in a table cell using the Rich Text editor in 6.1 (or 6.2)?  This of course brings out the question of being able to insert any component using the RTE.

Thanks!

No - the RTE is only meant to edit text - not a holder for components.

Yes, I agree with Scott..Rich text editor(RTE) is only meant for editing text and styles not to include the component.

THanks,
Ratna Kumar.

Thanks, I suspected as much, but was hoping that someone might have a solution in place that would support embedding content / components in the editor.

Hi 

Did you check the Content fragment ?

In AEM 6.2, you can use content fragments that let you create original content in AEM, enabling copy writers to create editorial content before it is being authored in a page and to further allow curating such content by creating channel specific variations and by associating collections with relevant media content. As a result, web producers receive content that is prepared and "ready to go”, enabling them to focus on assembling content across channels, globally and on a local level.

We have Helpx article created to tell how to use it :- https://helpx.adobe.com/experience-manager/using/content-fragments.html

Documentation :- https://docs.adobe.com/docs/en/aem/6-2/author/page-authoring/content-fragments.html

I hope this will be something that is closest available option as of now.

Thanks and Regards
