Not able to unlock template layout container (both root and any custom templates) after publish via sling job.

I need to publish templates and template types along with other nodes. I achieve this with a sling job, however, unlock doesn't work on the template root and also on any custom templates created on top of the published template-types.

I notice that, if I pass replicationOptions.setSuppressStatusUpdate(true) it works. But this would not update properties like 'isActivated', 'cq:lastReplicated' and 'cq:lastReplicatedBy' which is a limitation for me.

 

Version: AEM 6.5.15

Please help me resolve this issue.

Hello @samaraneni 

 

We need not publish template-types, only templates are required.

All pages are rendered via templates.

 

Template-types are only a template to create new templates. You can skip publishing the same.

 

Please try and validate on publish that all features work fine without template-types

    Thanks for the response.

    I agree excluding 'template-types' from publishing would let me unlock, however I have this concern with not publishing 'template-types'

    1) They won't exist in publish instance anymore but there is a reference to template-types as shown in this image

    Are there any potential issues that could arise if these elements are not included? In the package approach, these elements are present in the published instance. I want to ensure that transitioning to the API approach won’t inadvertently cause any issues.

      @samaraneni 

      As per my understanding, it should be ok to skip template-types on publish.
