Request for Deletion workflow triggered on content deletion

When a user logs in and deletes a page or asset in AEM, the “Request for Deletion” workflow is triggered. If you would like the user to be able to delete the content under a certain path, then allow them replication privilege on the path.

Description description

Environment

Adobe Experience Manager 6.0 (AEM 6.0) and later versions

Issue/Symptoms

When a user logs in and deletes a page or asset in AEM, the “Request for Deletion” workflow is triggered.

Cause

This is by design.

Resolution resolution

If the user doesn’t have replication privileges under a path, and you try to delete content under that path, it triggers the  Request for Deletion  workflow.

If you would like the user to be able to delete the content under a certain path, then allow them replication privilege on the path.
