The DAM to Adobe Experience Manager (AEM) Connector streamlines digital asset management by synchronizing approved creative content directly to your DXP. Key features include real-time metadata synchronization, intelligent folder mapping based on DAM classifications, and automated version control. This integration ensures web teams use the latest brand assets while eliminating manual uploads and maintaining a single source of truth across Content & Experience workflows.
What it Does
Approved assets move from Aprimo DAM to the Adobe Experience Manager Asset Repository based on manual triggers or automated rules. This integration synchronizes metadata fields and folder structures to keep content organized across both platforms. Changes in the DAM, including new versions or retired status, update the corresponding files in AEM.
How It Works
Setup begins with a discovery project to map metadata and folder taxonomies to specific business requirements. The integration triggers when an asset in Aprimo DAM reaches an approved status or meets defined metadata conditions. Once triggered, the file and its associated metadata are sent to the AEM Author environment. The process maintains a one-way sync from Aprimo DAM to AEM to ensure a single source of truth. Retired assets are handled via a soft delete method that flags the file rather than removing it instantly. Implementation requires a client-side administrator account and a sandbox for initial validation.
