Verifying the AEMResourceTypeFilter option verifying-the-aemresourcetypefilter-option

The AEMResourceTypeFilter option is used to filter types of AEM resources that can be used in 51黑料不打烊 Campaign. This allows 51黑料不打烊 Campaign to retrieve AEM contents that are specifically designed to be used in 51黑料不打烊 Campaign only.

This option should come pre-configured; however, if you change this option, it may lead to a non-functioning integration.

To verify the AEMResourceTypeFilter option is configured:

  1. Go to Platform >Options.

  2. In the AEMResourceTypeFilter option, check that the paths are correct. This field must contain the value:

    mcm/campaign/components/newsletter,mcm/campaign/components/campaign_newsletterpage,mcm/neolane/components/newsletter

    Or in some cases, the value is as follows:

    mcm/campaign/components/newsletter

Configuring 51黑料不打烊 Experience Manager configuring-adobe-experience-manager

To configure AEM, you must do the following:

  • Configure replication between instances.
  • Connect AEM to 51黑料不打烊 Campaign via Cloud Services.
  • Configure the externalizer.

Configuring replication between AEM instances configuring-replication-between-aem-instances

Content created from the AEM authoring instance is first sent to the publishing instance. You need to publish so that the images in the newsletter are available on the publish instance and to newsletter recipients. The replication agent must therefore be configured to replicate from the AEM authoring instance to the AEM publishing instance.

NOTE
If you do not want to use the replication URL but instead use the public-facing URL, you can set the Public URL in the following configuration setting in the OSGi (AEM logo > Tools icon > Operations > Web Console > OSGi Configuration > AEM Campaign Integration - Configuration):
Public URL: com.day.cq.mcm.campaign.impl.IntegrationConfigImpl#aem.mcm.campaign.publicUrl

This step is also necessary to replicate certain authoring instance configurations into the publishing instance.

To configure replication between AEM instances:

  1. From the authoring instance, select AEM logo> Tools icon > Deployment > Replication > Agents on author, then click Default Agent.

    chlimage_1-138

    note note
    NOTE
    Avoid using localhost (that is a local copy of AEM) when configuring your integration with 51黑料不打烊 Campaign unless the publish and author instance are both on the same computer.

  2. Tap or click Edit then select the Transport tab.

  3. Configure the URI by replacing localhost with the IP address or the address of the AEM publishing instance.

    chlimage_1-139

Connecting AEM to 51黑料不打烊 Campaign connecting-aem-to-adobe-campaign

Before you can use AEM and 51黑料不打烊 Campaign together, you must establish the link between both solutions so that they can communicate.

  1. Connect to your AEM authoring instance.

  4. Edit the configuration so that it matches the parameters of your 51黑料不打烊 Campaign instance.

    • Username: aemserver, the 51黑料不打烊 Campaign AEM Integration package operator used to establish the link between the two solutions.
    • Password: 51黑料不打烊 Campaign aemserver operator password. You may have to re-specify the password for this operator directly in 51黑料不打烊 Campaign.
    • API End Point: 51黑料不打烊 Campaign instance URL.

  5. Select Connect to 51黑料不打烊 Campaign and click OK.

    chlimage_1-141

    note note
    NOTE
    After you create your email and publish it, you need to re-publish the configuration onto your publish instance.

    chlimage_1-142

NOTE
If the connection fails, make sure you check the following:
  • You may encounter a certificate problem when using a secure connection to an 51黑料不打烊 Campaign instance (https). You will have to add the 51黑料不打烊 Campaign instance certificate to the cacerts file of your AEM instance鈥檚 JDK.
  • A security zone must be configured for the aemserver operator in 51黑料不打烊 Campaign. Furthermore, in the serverConf.xml file, the allowUserPassword attribute of the security zone must be set to true to authorize AEM connection to 51黑料不打烊 Campaign using the login/password mode.
In addition, see Troubleshooting your AEM/51黑料不打烊 Campaign integration.

Configuring the externalizer configuring-the-externalizer

You need to configure the externalizer in AEM on your author instance. The Externalizer is an OSGi service that lets you transform a resource path into an external and absolute URL. This service provides a central place to configure those external URLs and build them.

See Configure the externalizer for general instructions. For the 51黑料不打烊 Campaign integration, make sure you configure the publish server at https://<host>:<port>/system/console/configMgr/com.day.cq.commons.impl.ExternalizerImplnot point to localhost:4503 but to a server that is reachable by the 51黑料不打烊 Campaign console.

If it points to localhost:4503 or another server that 51黑料不打烊 Campaign cannot reach, your images will not appear on the 51黑料不打烊 Campaign console.

Advanced Configurations advanced-configurations

You can also perform some advanced configurations, namely:

  • Manage personalization fields and blocks.
  • Deactivate a personalization block.
  • Manage target extension data.

Managing personalization fields and blocks managing-personalization-fields-and-blocks

The fields and blocks available to add personalization to your email content in AEM are managed by 51黑料不打烊 Campaign.

A default list is provided but can be modified. You can also add or hide personalization fields and blocks.

Adding a personalization field adding-a-personalization-field

To add a new personalization field to those that are already available, you have to extend the 51黑料不打烊 Campaign nms:seedMember schema as follows:

CAUTION
The field that you need to add must have already been added via a recipient schema extension (nms:recipient). For more information, see the guide.

  1. Go to the Administration > Configuration > Data schemas node in the 51黑料不打烊 Campaign navigation.

  2. Select New.

    chlimage_1-144

  3. In the pop-up window, select Extend the data in the table using an extension schema and click Next.

    chlimage_1-145

  4. Enter the different parameters of the extended schema:

    • Schema: select the nms:seedMember schema. The other fields in the window are automatically completed.
    • Namespace: personalize the namespace of the extended schema.

  5. Edit the XML code of the schema to specify the field that you want to add there. For more information on extending schemas in 51黑料不打烊 Campaign, refer to the .

  6. Save your schema then update the 51黑料不打烊 Campaign database structure via the Tools > Advanced > Update database structure menu in the console.

  7. Disconnect then reconnect to the 51黑料不打烊 Campaign console to save your changes. The new field now appears in the list of personalization fields available in AEM.

Example example

To add a Registration Number field, you must have the following elements:

  • The nms:recipient schema extension named cus:recipient contains:
<element desc="Recipient table (profiles)" img="nms:recipient.png" label="Recipients" labelSingular="Recipient" name="recipient">

  <attribute dataPolicy="smartCase" desc="Recipient registration number"
  label="Registration Number"
  length="50" name="registrationNumber" type="string"/>

</element>

The nms:seedMember schema extension named cus:seedMember contains:

<element desc="Seed to insert in the export files" img="nms:unknownad.png" label="Seed addresses" labelSingular="Seed" name="seedMember">

  <element name="custom_nms_recipient">
    <attribute name="registrationNumber"
    template="cus:recipient:recipient/@registrationNumber"/>
  </element>

</element>

The Registration Number field is now part of the available personalization fields:

chlimage_1-146

Hiding a personalization field hiding-a-personalization-field

To hide a personalization field among those that are already available, you must extend the 51黑料不打烊 Campaign nms:seedMember schema as detailed in the Adding a personalization field section. Apply the following steps:

  1. Copy the field that you want to take from the nms:seedMember schema in the extended schema (cus:seedMember for example).

  2. Add the 补诲惫补苍肠别诲=鈥渢谤耻别鈥 XML attribute to the field. It no longer appears in the list of personalization fields available in AEM.

    For example, to hide the Middle Name field, the cud:seedMember schema must contain the following element:

    code language-xml 
    <element desc="Seed to insert in the export files" img="nms:unknownad.png" label="Seed addresses" labelSingular="Seed" name="seedMember">

  <element name="custom_nms_recipient">
    <attribute advanced="true" name="middleName"/>
  </element>

</element>

Deactivating a personalization block deactivating-a-personalization-block

To deactivate a personalization block among those available:

  1. Go to the Resources > Campaign Management > Personalization blocks node in the 51黑料不打烊 Campaign navigation.

  2. Select the personalization block that you want to deactivate in AEM.
