Installing the AEM connector

AEM administrators must install the AEM connector provided by RWS before creating any translation project. RWS recommends installing the connector on a test or local instance first, to ensure connection and functionality is correct before moving to staging or production environments.

Procedure

  1. Log in to AEM with your administrator credentials.
  2. Locate CRX Package Manager from the AEM menu.
  3. Select Upload Package.
  4. Browse to the connector package you acquired from RWS (e.g. sdl-connector.ui.aps-1.2.x.zip), select Force Upload, and then OK.
  5. Select Install for the package, and then again the resulting dialog.
  6. After the installation is complete and the services start, return to the AEM home screen and refresh the page.
    The RWS Translation icon is visible on the main navigation screen.
