Let’s take a look at - Project Masters in AEM. AEM projects is a feature - that allows a logical creation of group tasks or workflows, in order to manage content creation. This could be the creation of - digital assets for a catalog, or a series of new pages for a site or some combination of both. Central to AEM projects is a - team membership of a project which defines various - roles and permissions. With AEM projects, new users can easily be - added and assign new roles. Project Masters allows us to - define a set of team members and reuse that team for multiple projects. Master Projects can be created from within the Masters folder. Let’s create a new Masters Project, by clicking on the create button. First, we’ll select a template to use for the base for our Master Project And then we’ll give it a title. The Project Master, will be used to manage all the adventure content creation. Next, we can fill out - the remaining fields. These fields are important for identifying the Project Master when creating a new project. Let’s add a description - and a few team members. We’ll add an editor and an observer. All the team members that we add must be individually selected. Let’s add a thumbnail, so we can easily identify - our Master Project.

Navigating back to the projects folder, let’s create a new project. We’re given the option to select any of the existing project templates or we can select the Master - Project we just created. Let’s select this one and fill out the properties - for our new project. This project will be used to - manage the content creation for a new skiing campaign. We can give this project to description and choose a start date and due date.

The team members for this project, have been provided by our Master Project. So, there’s no need to - add individual users. They’re automatically inherited since this project is - based on a Master Project. This is the project dashboard, for our newly created ski project. If we wanted to update - or add new team members, we would not be able to do it from inside the scheme project. Instead, we would need to - update the team membership in the Master Project. Let’s add a new user to the - Project Master, Alison Smith who will be an editor.

Navigating back to our skiing project, we see the team membership - has been updated.

If we want to create another project, we can again select our - Project Master to start from. And this project, will be - for biking content creation for our campaign.

We can again give this project - a start date and due date and we see that the team - membership is again provided by our Master Project, - including Alison Smith. We’ve created two independent projects but the team membership - for each one is the same. And the team members, are all - managed by our Master Project. Any updates to the team membership and the Master Project will be reflected in our biking and skiing projects. - -
