User/Group permission sync from AMS to AEMaaCS

Hi,

I've been trying to find out way, do'-don't's of how the user/group permission can be synced with AEMaaCS? As I've read the official documentation, it shows via User Sync tool or uploading via CSV or connecting via active directory to sync users/groups. But, I didn't get the part how existing permissions of user/group which are there in AMS can be moved to AEMaaCS!

Could you please let me know the best possible way here (with pros and cons if there're any)?

Best regards,
Himanshu Singhal

I've the found the way to sync via Content transfer tool and that's what I was looking for.

Thanks for your response. It's indeed helpful and we're managing system user permission via the same.

Hi,

You can try to set permission using either of the following -

1. https://github.com/Netcentric/accesscontroltool

2. https://sling.apache.org/documentation/bundles/repository-initialization.html

 

Synching may not work because of the immutable part of AEM which is /apps and /libs, so permission will reset with the new deployment, so better to set the permission using tools all the time.
