Franklin sidekick extensions

[Sahana_S]

Hi, I am exploring the sidekick options in Franklin where I stumbled upon the asset extension. Can we access our AEM Assets (DAM) via the sidekick ? or what is the asset configuration it supports? If the AEM DAM can be accessed, how can we configure the sidekick to access the AEM Assets. 

Additionally, May I know what are the additional benefits of going for licensed version of Franklin?

Hi @Sahana_S 
You can use asset picker to connect with AEM cloud assets/DAM.

Add following plugin in the sidekick/config.json file

{
      "id": "asset-library",
      "title": "AEM Assets Selector",
      "environments": ["edit"],
      "url": "https://experience.adobe.com/solutions/CQ-assets-selectors/static-assets/resources/franklin/asset-selector.html",
      "isPalette": true,
      "includePaths": ["**.docx**"],
      "paletteRect": "top: 50px; bottom: 10px; right: 10px; left: auto; width:400px; height: calc(100vh - 60px)"
    },

Thanks @arunpatidar . May I know more on the second question here as well? Regarding the differences between licensed and unlicensed versions of the product

Hi @Sahana_S 
I don't think so that you can commercially use non-licensed version of EDS. I would suggest to reach out to adobe via https://www.aem.live/business/reachout
