Using Jackrabbit UserManager APIs to retrieve group permissions

You can develop an Adobe Experience Manager (AEM) OSGi bundle that uses the Jackrabbit UserManager APIs to retrive group privileges for a specific node. This API provides access to both AEM users and groups and is located in the org.apache.jackrabbit.api.security.user Java package. For more information, see Interface UserManager.

For example, consider a group named geometrixx-facebook that has these permissions to a node located here:

/content/geometrixx-outdoors/en/TestPage

The following illustration shows the privileges for the geometrixx-facebook group.


Using an OSGi bundle that contains the Jackrabbit UserManager API, you can dynamically retrieve group privileges. In this development article, group privileges for a page are written to the AEM log file.

**** Here are the permissions: group: geometrixx-facebook privilege: jcr:read

 **** Here are the permissions: group: geometrixx-facebook privilege: jcr:modifyAccessControl

 **** Here are the permissions: group: geometrixx-facebook privilege: crx:replicate

 **** Here are the permissions: group: geometrixx-facebook privilege: jcr:versionManagement

 **** Here are the permissions: group: geometrixx-facebook privilege: jcr:lockManagement

 **** Here are the permissions: group: geometrixx-facebook privilege: rep:write

 **** Here are the permissions: group: geometrixx-facebook privilege: jcr:readAccessControl

Dynamically updating AEM TouchUI Select Fields

To dynamically update an AEM Touch UI select field, you have to use application logic, as discussed in this article. To read this article, click https://helpx.adobe.com/experience-manager/using/creating-touchui-dynamic.html.

A headline component lets you website visitors view latest headlines about a specific subject. That is, you can enter keyword into an AEM dialog and the component will display headlines related to the keyword. For example, you can enter Facebook keyword and the component displays headlines, as shown in the following illustration.


This component uses the News Guardian API to retrieve the headlines. That is, a cusotm AEM service uses this API to retrieve the headlines based on the keyword an author enters into the component dialog.
