AEM Sidekick customization issue

Avatar

Level 1

Hi,

I have added a config.json file under the /tools/sidekick directory in my root folder. Inside the file, I have added the plugins. After that, I pushed my changes to the main branch of my GitHub repository. The customizations should be available, but I am not able to see those changes. I have cleared the cache and reloaded the page, but I still cannot see the updates. Could you please provide a solution for this issue?

 

This my data inside the file:
/tools/sidekick/config.json

 

{
    "project": "AEM Franklin EDS",
    "plugins": [
      {
        "id": "google-assist",
        "title": "Google Assist",
        "environments": [
          "edit",
          "dev",
          "preview",
          "live",
          "prod"
        ],
        "url": "https://www.google.com/search?q=edge+delivery+services",
        "passConfig": true,
        "passReferrer": true,
        "excludePaths": [
          "**/fr/**"
        ],
        "includePaths": [
          "**.docx**"
        ],
        "isPalette": true,
        "paletteRect": "top: 50px; bottom: 10px; right: 10px; left: auto; width: 400px; height: calc(100vh - 60px)"
      },
      {
        "id": "tools",
        "title": "Tools",
        "isContainer": true
      },
      {
        "containerId": "tools",
        "id": "localize",
        "title": "Localize",
        "environments": [
          "edit",
          "dev",
          "preview",
          "live",
          "prod"
        ],
        "url": "https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/translator/business/translator-api/",
        "passReferrer": true
      },
      {
        "containerId": "tools",
        "id": "youtube",
        "title": "YouTube",
        "environments": [
          "edit",
          "dev",
          "preview",
          "live",
          "prod"
        ],
        "url": "https://www.youtube.com/@AEMGeeks",
        "passReferrer": true
      }
    ]
  }

Typically, you should be able to make this change in a feature branch, and then configure the sidekick to "point" to that feature branch. That's how I've done this, to see my changes.

Hi @raf-winterpacht ,
I have done that before with feature branch only. It doesn't work. Then I committed to main branch still not working. I didn't get about "point" that you mentioned. It is by default process right with this "https://feature--franklinsite--user.name.aem.page"

Could you please let me know if there is any other ways to solve this issue?

Thanks,

Aside from the Google Assist saying it couldn't load, I copied your code and brought it into my feature branch. It seems to work as expected. So there must be something else not happening there:
