Touch UI User Picker- allowing groups in the user selection dropdown?

[以前のコミュニティメンバー]

Hi,

I need to allow groups also appear in the userpicker drop down. I see only option to override the userpicker. Have any one done this in before. Please suggest.

Thanks.

One way you can perform this requirement is to write a sling servlet and get the user/group information you need via the Jackrabbit User Manager API. 

https://jackrabbit.apache.org/api/2.2/org/apache/jackrabbit/api/security/user/UserManager.html

Then you can use the return value of the sling servlet to populate a dialog dropdown. See this AEM community article:

Try using xtype="authselection" in your dialog if this is not what you want then you can use the curl to get the results
