unable to remove jcr:mixinTypes mix:lockable property though service user

[raja-thannasi]

Dear Developers/ Architects,

        at present im using aemsdk 2023-12 version. In Previous AEM sdk version, I was able to remove  jcr:mixinTypes mix:lockable  property on page through service user which have access to remove permission on /content.

Recent version of aem sdk version, the jcr:mixinTypes property were disabled, even admin account was not able to remove this property. any suggestion on this?? is there any option to remove lockable property through service user?

Hi @raja-thannasi 
Setting jcr:mixinTypes null can help.

node.setProperty('jcr:mixinTypes', null)

Hi @raja-thannasi,

jcr:mixinTypes is protected property. If you want to modify it you have to use dedicated method from Node class:

node.removeMixin("mix:lockable");

In terms of mix:lockable mixin, you can also use LockManager api to control this specific one.

If you want to manage mixins from crx, you should use dedicated Mixins... option from context menu
