(Hopefully) growing Postman Collection for various AEM operations.
The Postman collection is a starting point for AEM developers and consultants. It should help you during, setup, migration, debugging and hotfixes. All commands were tested in AEM as a Cloud Service.
Together with the Postman Runner its also a valid bulk edit/migration tool.
There are several reasons why i created the repo.
- Since CRXDE Lite is blocked in AEMaaCS its sometimes tough do stuff. Like quickly edit a property are delete a "nasty" node. Normally i use the AEMaaCS Repo Browser to find the culprit, then do the necessary changes via the collection.
- Create custom packages.
- Mass creation of pages for eg. migration support with the help of the postman runner
- Upload of assets (Also a valid runner task)
- Mass change of user groups (Also a valid runner task)
- Create a classic (non IMS user) within AEM. (I might add IMS support in the future)
- Install the collection
- Setup a new Postman Environment. The "Path" Variable is optional and omly used for Postman Runner Tasks. It should look like this:
- Set the Environment
- Have Fun
As stated above the Postman Runner is a valid tool for bulk operations. Attached is a video of what I once did for content fragments (to create them in bulk based on a .csv). You don't see the AEM Collection in the video, but the logic is exactly the same. The variable settings in minute 0:30 are best not as seen in the video but set up in the environment.
Will follow.
