Persisting Adobe Experience Manager 6.4 JCR data using a Custom Form Action

You can create an Adobe Experience Manager 6.4 application that persists application data in the Java Content Repository (JCR). When storing data within the JCR, each record can be saved as a separate node. A node can contain properties that store data values. To store data in Nodes, you can use the Node API.

For example, assume that your Experience Manager application to store your organization’s employee data. Each node can represent a different employee. In this article, a basic form is built by using Experience Manager Form components.

The following illustration shows employee nodes. Each time the form is submitted, a new node is created.


Each node contains properties that store employee details, such as the name value.


The following video shows this use case.
