Goal

When a user clicks on Inbox item of Classic UI, by default the asset opens in Touch UI editor - /assetdetails.html

This post is on changing the url from Touch (/assetdetails.html) to Classic (/damadmin) for workflow started on assets in sample folder /content/dam/experience-aem

Demo | Source | Package Install

Solution

1) Create a OSGI service apps.experienceaem.inbox.ClassicUIAssetUrlPathBuilder implementing com.day.cq.workflow.ui.JcrPayloadPathBuilder with much lower ranking say -1306, installed in /apps/classicui-inbox-asset-url/install

package apps.experienceaem.inbox;

import com.day.cq.dam.api.Asset;
import com.day.cq.workflow.exec.WorkItem;
import com.day.cq.workflow.ui.JcrPayloadPathBuilder;
import org.apache.commons.lang3.StringUtils;
import org.apache.felix.scr.annotations.*;
import org.apache.sling.api.resource.Resource;
import org.apache.sling.api.resource.ResourceResolver;
import org.apache.sling.api.resource.ResourceResolverFactory;
import org.osgi.framework.Constants;
import org.slf4j.Logger;
import org.slf4j.LoggerFactory;

import java.util.Collections;
import java.util.HashMap;
import java.util.Map;

@Component(metatype = false)
@Service
@Properties({
 @Property(name = Constants.SERVICE_DESCRIPTION, value = "Experience AEM Classic UI Inbox Asset Url"),
 @Property(name = "service.ranking", intValue = -1306, propertyPrivate = false)
})
public class ClassicUIAssetUrlPathBuilder implements JcrPayloadPathBuilder {
 private static final Logger log = LoggerFactory.getLogger(ClassicUIAssetUrlPathBuilder.class);

 private static String EAEM_FOLDER = "/content/dam/experience-aem";

 @Reference
 private ResourceResolverFactory resolverFactory;

 public String buildPath(WorkItem item) {
 ResourceResolver srvResolver = null;

 try {
 if (!item.getWorkflowData().getPayloadType().equals("JCR_PATH")) {
 return null;
 }

 String path = item.getWorkflowData().getPayload().toString();

 Map<String, Object> authMap = new HashMap<String, Object>();
 authMap.put(ResourceResolverFactory.SUBSERVICE, "pathbuilder");

 srvResolver = resolverFactory.getServiceResourceResolver(authMap);

 Resource res = srvResolver.getResource(path);

 if (res == null || !StringUtils.startsWith(res.getPath(), EAEM_FOLDER)) {
 return null;
 }

 if (res.adaptTo(Asset.class) != null) {
 return "/damadmin#" + res.getPath();
 }
 } catch (Exception e) {
 log.warn("Error creating inbox asset url", e);
 } finally {
 if (srvResolver != null) {
 srvResolver.close();
 }
 }

 return null;
 }
}

2) Create a service user mapping for bundle apps.experienceaem.inbox.classicui-inbox-asset-url-bundle and sub service pathbuilder in folder /apps/classicui-inbox-asset-url/config, node org.apache.sling.serviceusermapping.impl.ServiceUserMapperImpl.amended-eaem of type sling:OsgiConfig

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<jcr:root  
 jcr_primaryType="sling:OsgiConfig"
 user.mapping="[apps.experienceaem.inbox.classicui-inbox-asset-url-bundle:pathbuilder=targetservice]"/>
