Tag filter fails in Micro Frontend Asset Selector with AEM delivery tier integration

When using the Micro Frontend Asset Selector integrated with a third-party authoring application, the tag filter doesn’t work as expected. To fix this, reconfigure tag lookups to point to the author instance.

Description description

Environment

  • Product: Adobe Experience Manager (AEM) as a Cloud Service – Assets
  • Instance: Production

Issue/Symptoms

  • The tags fail to load in the asset selector.
  • 404 error occurs when fetching tag definitions from the delivery tier endpoint.

Cause

In AEMaaCS, the tag taxonomy (/content/cq:tags) is maintained on the author instance and isn’t dynamically available on the delivery tier. As a result, requests made by the asset selector to retrieve tags from the delivery endpoint result in missing resources.

Resolution resolution

Note: AEMaaCS doesn’t support dynamic tag lookups on the delivery tier.

To address this limitation, update the asset selector configuration so that tag lookups are directed to the author instance instead of the delivery tier. This change ensures that tag definitions are successfully retrieved.
