A user with administrator access in Adobe Experience Manager installs the enhanced connector. Before you install, review the platform support and other prerequisites for the connector.

IMPORTANT

  • Adobe requires deployment and configuration of the Adobe Workfront for Experience Manager enhanced connector only via certified partners or Adobe Professional Services. If deployed and configured without a certified partner or Adobe Professional Services, it is not supported by Adobe.

  • Adobe may release updates to Adobe Workfront and Adobe Experience Manager that make this connector redundant; if this occurs, customers may be required to transition from the use of this connector.

  • Adobe supports enhanced connector versions 1.7.4 and higher. Previous prerelease and custom versions are not supported. To check the enhanced connector version, navigate to the digital.hoodoo group available in the left pane in Package Manager.

  • See Partner certification exam for Workfront for Experience Manager Assets enhanced connector. For information about the exam, see Exam Guide.

To install the connector, follow these steps:

  1. Download the connector from Software Distribution link.

  2. Configure the firewall.

  3. On the Dispatcher, allow HTTP headers named authorization, username, and apikey. Allow GET, POST, and PUT requests to /bin/workfront-tools.

  4. Ensure that the following paths do not exist in Experience Manager repository:

    • /apps/dam/gui/coral/components/admin/schemaforms/formbuilder
    • /apps/dam/gui/coral/components/admin/folderschemaforms/formbuilder
    • /apps/dam/gui/content/foldermetadataschemaeditor
    • /apps/dam/cfm/models/editor/components/datatypeproperties
    • /apps/settings/dam/cfm/models/formbuilderconfig

  5. Install the package using Package Manager. To know how to install packages, see Package Manager documentation.

  6. Create wf-workfront-users in Experience Manager User Group and assign the permission jcr:all to /content/dam.

  7. Add a custom property to the out of the box index definition for ntFolderDamLucene(/oak:index/ntFolderDamLucene). Execute the below steps:

    • Add an nt:unstructured property named wfReferenceNumber to:
      /oak:index/ntFolderDamLucene/indexRules/nt:folder/properties/wfReferenceNumber.
    • Reindex the index /oak:index/ntFolderDamLucene by flipping the reindex flag to true.

A system user workfront-tools is automatically created and the required permissions are managed automatically. All users from Workfront who use the connector are automatically added as a part of this group.
