What is usage of "msm-config-endpoint" granite class to enable Inheritance Locks on Live copy pages in Page Properties ?

[anirudh_satchitanand]

We had a use case where we had to extend inheritance locks on live copies for Experience Fragment pages. In one of the page rendering components observed that there was node defined as :

<msmConfigEndpoint

jcr:primaryType="nt:unstructured"

sling:resourceType="granite/ui/components/coral/foundation/form/hidden"

granite:class="msm-config-endpoint"

value="${empty param.item ? requestPathInfo.suffix : param.item }"/>

on using this node on experience fragment page rendering component , was able to resolve the lock issue.

But wasn't able to find any much official documentation for it, can some one please help understand this ?

Hi @anirudh_satchitanand,

This is used to set the MSM lock/unlock icon and its related properties.

Works by reading the value of msmConfigEndpoint hidden field which by its definition is either suffix or parameter named item. (Ex: If we open page properties of a page, item value will be the page path)
