About the Adobe Experience Manager Connector

The Adobe Experience Manager (AEM) connector is an enterprise-grade indexing connector that enables digital assets and sites to be crawled and indexed in either an authoring or publishing instance.

The index produced by the Adobe Experience Manager connector enables SharePoint, or any other portal, to provide users a single location from which to search and retrieve content from multiple content sources.

Limitations

  • The effect of "deny" permissions in Adobe Experience Manager may depend on the order of permissions.
  • In the connector, "deny" permissions always override any grant permissions.

Note: Adobe Experience Manager documentation does not recommend using "deny" permissions:

  • Sites in Adobe Experience Manager may contain custom components that display different content according to URL parameters.
  • Adobe Experience Manager always retrieves sites without any custom URL parameters when writing to the search index.
