Search and display results from AEM DAM assets

[dmp007]

Hi Team,

Can we search (metadata key) and display the AEM DAM assets in customized UI (Templates,Components & Page)using asset manager API?  I was able to upload single image to DAM using asset manager API . Similarly I'm looking for an option to display the search results.

Thank in advance

Hi,

If I understand correctly, you want to display the images in a component/page which are displayed on asset finder ? If so you can use the below url and update the query term with custom value and make an ajax call and display the images as required

http://localhost:4502/bin/wcm/contentfinder/asset/view.html?_dc=1555905028910&query=we+retail+order%...

It is the same ajax call which will happen when we search images in asset finder

Hope this helps !

Thanks @Ravi Pampana for your prompt response. Your link shows up the search results as we except. Can you also share the changes for jsp/HTL/API(sling servlet) and query term to help me to understand connecting all these dots?

Sorry for asking more detailed information. I'm very new to AEM. I just followed the below steps to upload the image using custom UI

- (https://helpx.adobe.com/experience-manager/using/uploading-files-aem1.html) . Similarly I need to update the jsp/HTL/API to view the results for the search criteria on the customized UI. And also we need to allow user to click any of the result image which would bring the image and metadata information on side by side.

Thanks again !!!

Hi dmp007,

If you are developing custom component then you can make an ajax call with above given url which returns all the images matching search term.

Once you get the images paths, you can use below url to retrieve image meta data on clicking on the image

<host>:<port>/mnt/overlay/dam/gui/content/assets/metadataeditor.external.html?_charset_=utf-8&item=<image-path returned in first ajax call>

Ex: //<host>:<port>/mnt/overlay/dam/gui/content/assets/metadataeditor.external.html?_charset_=utf-8&item=/content/dam/we-retail/en/activities/hiking/hiking_5.jpg
