Integrating NON-AEM systems with DAM

[VedGSingh]

Hi All,

I'm exploring the possibilities of integrating AEM Digital Asset Management (DAM) with 3rd party system. I wanted to understand 1) If it is possible and 2) What solution patterns are available. I'm looking for more API-based integrations.

Thanks

Ved

@VedGSingh Are you looking to import Assets into DAM or export the assets to 3rd party?

below page shows all the different ways you can connect to DAM and work with assets, what exactly you want to do after connecting

Hi @Saravanan_Dharmaraj 

Thanks for your response.

My requirement is to read the asset say an image (product.jpg) from the DAM along with its metadata and expose the information as a json response. The json will be consumed in a separate SPA application.

Based on the matrix that you shared, looks like Assets HTTP API can be leveraged. Is that accurate? 

I was also reading about the feature Asset Selector but not sure about it as of now.

Thanks

hi @VedGSingh Yes you can read the metadat using the url http://localhost:<portnumber>/content/dam/folder/assetname/jcr:content/metadata.json

Hope this helps!

Thanks

Hi @VedGSingh ,
For asset selector please find below:

The Assets HTTP API does not expose any of the GET method and required authentication to use that : https://experienceleague.adobe.com/docs/experience-manager-cloud-service/content/assets/admin/mac-ap... 

AEM : OOTB API
