Move digital content from Google Drive to Author (Digital asset management)

[Harish_Avula]

Hello all, this is my first post here in this community. I have like 4.5 TB of data in google drive to be moved to AEM Author as assets. What is the best way to do this other than download and upload. Any API's available or plugins. Please let me know.

To move content - you can write a custom sling servlet and then use AssetManager API to place the content (images for example) to the correct location in the DAM.

Thank you Scott. I was thinking around the same lines but was wondering if there is a plugin already written or something on Exchange and not re-invent the wheel..

As Scott mentioned, you can use asset manager API on your custom servlet to import the assets.

OR

1. Use ACS Tools CSV Asset importer - CSV Asset Importer

OR

1. update your DAM asset workflow to your required specification

2. Install Use AEM Desktop App

3. Move the assets via desktop app.
