For advanced configurations such as managing personalization fields and blocks. Refer to Adobe Experience Manager documentation.

Install the AEM integration package in Adobe Campaign install-the-aem-integration-package-in-adobe-campaign

You first need to install the AEM integration package.

  1. From your Adobe Campaign instance, select Tools from the upper toolbar.

  2. Select Tools > Advanced > Import packageā€¦.

  3. Select Install a standard package.

  4. Check AEM integration then click the Next button.

Configure the security zone for AEM operator configure-the-security-zone-for-aem-operator

The AEM integration package sets the aemserver operator in Campaign. This operator will be used to connect the Adobe Experience Manager server to Adobe Campaign.

You need to configure a security zone for this operator to connect to Adobe Campaign via Adobe Experience Manager.

CAUTION
We strongly recommend creating a security zone dedicated to AEM to avoid any security problems. For more on this, refer to the Installation guide.

If your Campaign instance is hosted by Adobe, contact Adobe Customer Care team. If you are using Campaign on-premise, follow the steps below:

  1. Open the serverConf.xml configuration file.

  2. Access the allowUserPassword attribute of the selected security zone and set it to true.

    This will allow Adobe Experience Manager to connect Adobe Campaign via login/password.

Configure the external account configure-the-external-account

The AEM integration package created the external account for Adobe Experience Cloud. You need now to configure it to connect with your Adobe Experience Manager instance.

To configure the AEM external account, follow the steps below:

  1. Click the Explorer button.

  2. Select Administration > Platform > External accounts.

  3. From the External account list, select AEM instance.

  4. Enter the parameters for your AEM authoring instance:

    • Server

    NOTE
    Make sure that your Server address does not end with a a trailing slash.

  5. Check the Enabled box.

Configure AEM resources filtering configure-aem-resources-filtering

  1. Click the Explorer button.

  2. Select Administration > Platform > Options.

  3. From the Options list, select AEMResourceTypeFilter.
