Creating a Custom AEM Dam Media Handler

You can create a custom Adobe Experience Manager (AEM) DAM media handler that is invoked when you upload a digital asset to the AEM DAM. A DAM handle processes an asset when it’s uploaded to the DAM. For example an DAM handler can generate a thumbnail generation and extract metadata.


To create an AEM DAM media handler, you create an OSGi bundle that contains a class that extends com.day.cq.dam.commons.handler.AbstractAssetHandler. For information, see AbstractAssetHandler.
