Introduction to AEM as a Cloud Service Asset Upload HTTP API by Drew Robinson
Abstract
In AEM as a Cloud Service, image processing has been moved to the Asset Compute Microservice. Binary files are uploaded directly to blob storage instead of streaming through the AEM JVM. In this post, I explain how to get started with the asset upload HTTP API. I review and demonstrate the below-illustrated steps ( 1, 2, and 3) using Postman as a client application.

Asset Upload Note: Before you begin, create a user in AEM with sufficient permission to upload assets and create a folder within the asset dam to upload to.
