AEM Cloud Service - Quick Steps to configure accessing Assets using OpenAPI based AEM APIs

Adobe documentation article explains configuring OpenAPI based content access from AEM very well. This post is just a collection of some quick screenshots...

1) To modernize AEM cloud envs (adding more product profiles) add yourself to the Business Owner - Cloud Service profile of product Cloud Manager in https://adminconsole.adobe.com/. Later in cloud manager you can click Add product profiles for the env to get the new product files like AEM Assets Collaborator Users needed for OpenAPI integration  

2) Once you have the profiles available in admin console for the env to access them click Manage Access -> Author Profiles and add AEM Assets API Users Service to AEM Assets Collaborator Users product profile

3) Create a Adobe IO Project (https://developer.adobe.com/console) to enable Oauth Server to Server Integration add the API AEM Assets Author API

4) In your AEM maven project add file ./config/api.yaml and copy the Client Id from integration created above

kind: "API"

version: "1.0"

metadata:

    envTypes: ["dev", "rde"]

data:

    allowedClientIDs:

        author:

          - "1252dexxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxe6670"

5) Run the pipeline to deploy or if its RDE using the following command...

aio aem:rde:install -t env-config  ./config

6) You can now access AEM assets using server to server integration providing the Bearer (access) token and x-api-key (client id)
