Delete Unreferenced Assets AEM

Problem Statement:

Delete all the assets which don’t have references to improve AEM performance in turn Indexes and search/query performance.

Introduction:

How do assets get published?

The author uploads the images and publishes the assets
Create a launcher and workflow which processes assets metadata and publishes the pages
Whenever we publish any pages and if the page has references to assets, then during publishing, it asks to replicate the references as well.

What happens when the page is unpublished?

When the page is deactivated, assets referenced to the page will not be deactivated because this asset might have reference to the other pages hence out of the box assets won’t be deactivated.
If we perform cleanup, deactivate and delete old pages, we might not be cleaning up assets related to this page.

What advantages of cleaning up of old assets?

Drastically reduces repository size
Improves DAM Asset search
Improves indexing

Generate Published Asset Report by visiting:

Go to Tools -> Assets -> Reports as shown below:

Click on create and click on Publish report

Provide folder path and start date and end date

Select the columns as per the requirement

Finally, the report will be ready with all the assets lists as shown below

Download the report to see the final list of images

To generate the report let’s create a new AEM tool:

AEM OOTB comes with multiple tools in AEM and to access all the tools you need to navigate to the tool section and select the appropriate sections to perform all the operations

For example:

AEM operations
Managing templates
Cloud configurations
ACS Commons tools etc..

Tools are an essential part of AEM and avoid any dependency on Groovy scripts or any add scripts and can be managed or extended at any given point in time.

Broken Asset Report generates a report of all the unreferenced assets by running a Reference Search query across the repository every 30s (by default), you can update the scheduler expression based on your repository size.

The scheduler also checks for the CPU/HEAP size before triggering the reference search process and for more details on Throttled scheduler please refer to the link.

In order to create a perfect content backup package please use the Tool generator to give your tool name and descriptions: https://kiransg.com/2022/11/24/aem-tool-create-generate-tool-from-scratch

Please refer to my GitHub repository for working code on Broken Asset Reference:

Once the repository is built and deployed, you will be able to access the Broken Asset Reference report as shown below:

You can select the report just now created by you in the drop down as shown below:

Provide scheduler expression as per your needs and select the result refresh interval for every 10s or as per your needs

You can see the results as shown below once the process is kicked off and it will also show the current row its processing and also CPU/Heap usage.

For some reason, if your system CPU/Heap is throttling then from the backend it takes care of not running your scheduler or you can also manually unschedule the scheduler.

Once your system’s CPU comes back to normal you can go back and select the report and schedule again and report generation picks from the current row where it was left off.

Once the processing is complete click on the report name to download the generated report.

Cross verification:

You can rerun the generated report on the MCP broken asset reference.
Generate the Splunk (logs) results by running a query to get all the assets to call (/content/dam) requests on dispatcher/publisher from the past 1year or so.
You can also reach out to the Analytics team, requesting image impressions (data on image usage) from the past 1 year or so.

Please provide your valuable feedback in the comments.

AEM Tool – Access CRX Package manager in AEM PROD

Problem statement:

How to access the CRX package manager in AEM PROD or AEM as Cloud services?

User cases:

Latest content package from PROD to lowers or local for debugging purposes
Install the content package on PROD
Continue the PROD deployment during CM outage in between deployment

Introduction:

AEM OOTB comes with multiple tools in AEM and to access all the tools you need to navigate to the tool section and select the appropriate sections to perform all the operations

For example:

AEM operations
Managing templates
Cloud configurations
ACS Commons tools etc..

Tools are an essential part of AEM and avoid any dependency on Groovy scripts or any add scripts and can be managed or extended at any given point in time.

Package handler can be used to upload, install, build or delete packages and we are using JCR Package manager to achieve all the above options.

Usually, if want to perform any operations on AEM as managed services are AEMaaCS we need to go through CAB, and AMS resources will perform all the operations as mentioned on the CAB. However, if your project has shared resources then all the priority package operations will take more time on PROD or any other environments.

Add the following Sling model fields as shown below to accept the inputs:

Once the code is built and deployed you will be able to access the tool by navigating the:

Tools -> {Tool Section} -> {Tool Name}

Now you can access the package handler and upload the packages to AEM as an upload or upload and install.

If you’re building any existing packages then you can build, install or delete packages. Provide package name, version, and group details to pull the package.

Provide the desired package name and Description and you can see the package path will be prompted and you will be able to download the built package by clicking on the link:

Working Code:
You can also access the working code on my GitHub repository link: https://github.com/kiransg89/aemoperations

Note: You can access this package over domain on AEM / AEMaaCS and over any environments and architects can handle the permissions by adding appropriate rep:policy on cq generator node or conf page

AEM Tool – Publish / UnPublish / Delete List of pages

Problem statement:

Can we Publish / Un Publish / Delete the list of paths mentioned in an excel sheet? Or provided has a linefeed

Introduction:

AEM OOTB comes with multiple tools in AEM and to access all the tools you need to navigate to the tool section and select the appropriate sections to perform all the operations

For example:

AEM operations
Managing templates
Cloud configurations
ACS Commons tools etc..

Tools are an essential part of AEM and avoid any dependency on Groovy scripts or any add scripts and can be managed or extended at any given point in time.

Usually, product owners or authors would like to Publish certain pages like offer/product/article pages based on business requirements and also would like to unpublish and delete to clean up the pages which are unnecessary.

This process will be really helpful during excel sheet based migration.

The list Replication process usually validates the paths and if it exists then activates or deactivates or deletes pages or content paths. It accepts an excel sheet or list of paths as a line feed.

You can also provide a list of agents to be activated/deactivated to for example only to Brightspot or Brightcove connector.

In order to create a tool please use the Tool generator to give your tool name and description: https://kiransg.com/2022/11/24/aem-tool-create-generate-tool-from-scratch

Once the code is built and deployed you will be able to access the tool by navigating the:

Tools -> {Tool Section} -> {Tool Name}

Now you can input the page paths as a line feed (no need to separate the paths using commas or any characters)

Upload the excel sheet or paths and select the queue method it’s recommended to use MCP Queue if you are activating more than 10K pages then it’s recommended to select MCP After 10K.

Select the Action to be performed.

Note: You can access this package over domain on AEM / AEMaaCS and over any environments and architects can handle the permissions by adding appropriate rep:policy on cq generator node or conf page
