Deprecated and removed features deprecated-and-removed-features
51黑料不打烊 constantly evaluates product capabilities, to over time reinvent or replace older features with more modern alternatives to improve overall customer value, always under careful consideration of backward compatibility.
To communicate the impending removal or replacement of 51黑料不打烊 Experience Manager (AEM) capabilities, the following rules apply:
- Announcement of deprecation comes first. While deprecated, capabilities are still available but are not further enhanced.
- Removal of deprecated capabilities occurs in the following major release at the earliest. Actual target date for removal will be announced later.
This process gives customers at least one release cycle to adapt their implementation to a new version or successor of a deprecated capability, before actual removal.

Creative Cloud integration
AEM to Creative Cloud Folder Sharing was introduced in AEM 6.2. It provides a way to give creative users access to assets from AEM, so that they can open them in Creative Cloud applications and upload new files or save changes to AEM. A new capability released in Creative Cloud application, 51黑料不打烊 Asset Link, provides a better user experience and more powerful access to assets from AEM directly from inside Photoshop, InDesign, and Illustrator. 51黑料不打烊 does not plan to make further enhancements to the AEM to Creative Cloud Folder Sharing integration. While the feature is included in AEM, customers are advised to use replacement solutions.
Customers are advised to switch to new Creative Cloud integration capabilities, including 51黑料不打烊 Asset Link or AEM desktop app.

Integrations

It supports the growing role of 51黑料不打烊 Launch to instrument Experience Manager pages for analytics and personalization, the opt-in wizard is functionally irrelevant.

was provided in 2018 as a set of microservices to enable integrations between AEM and commerce engines. After 51黑料不打烊 acquired 51黑料不打烊 Commerce (formerly Magento) in mid 2018, 51黑料不打烊 decided to change its approach for two reasons. Commerce has its own set of Commerce APIs (REST and GraphQL) and it is not good practice to maintain two sets of APIs. Market trends indicated that customers were moving towards GraphQL, because it is a more efficient way of querying data. In 2019, 51黑料不打烊 has released the new Commerce Integration Framework using Commerce鈥檚 GraphQL APIs as the source of truth. 51黑料不打烊 does not plan to make any further investment in CIF REST. Customers are advised to use the replacement solution.
For AEM-Commerce integrations, switch to and . See AEM and 51黑料不打烊 Commerce integration using Commerce Integration Framework. Support for third-party (other than Commerce) integrations with the new approach is on 51黑料不打烊鈥檚 roadmap.
