Adobe Drive Custom Connector

Hi,
We have a requirement for Digital Asset Management solution and the client already has a FileNet P8 4.5.1 solution in production. They are using Adobe Creative Suite CS5 (Indesign, Illustrator, Photoshop). We tested the CMIS connector with P8 5.0 and we found few limitation(no previews and thumbnails, no option to select the class as it always defaulted to "Document" class, version comments not stored, verison previews not available) and will appreciate if you can confirm that the following requirements can be met by developing a custom connector using Adobe Drive SDK:
The user needs to be able to Checkin Indesign Documents with all links from Indesign or by just doing a copy/paste of the full Indesign package folder in “Finder”
While checking in the user should have the option to select the class of the document and fill the indexes for the documents
The user should be able to search in Adobe Bridge based on the indexes filled during checkin operation (FileNet Properties)
Adobe Bridge should be able to show the thumbnails and preview for all added content (Indesign, illustrator, Photoshop)
Versioning should be supported with version comments, and versions dialog should show the preview of each version.
Thanks
Alex

from the perspective of Adobe Drive, I think the answers for all the above questions is Yes.
Adobe Drive is a set of client components for asset managementss, it depends on your connector and remote DAM service to provide all the information it needs, like thumbnails, preview, seach cretirias in Bridge, version comments and etc, throught Adobe Drive SDK, if your connector follow it and is good designed, I think Adobe Drive can meet all the above requirments.
any issue you will met in the developement, you can post here
thanks

  • Adobe Drive CMIS connector and Authentication

    Hello,
    We have undertaken a project to make our DAM CMIS compliant and thus get connected with Adobe Drive using it's inbuilt CMIS connector. We will be following RESTful AtomPub binding of CMIS for this.
    CMIS spec doesn't talk a lot about the authentication and seems like it is outside the scope of CMIS. I wanted to know how Adobe Drive client gets authenticated with any CMS/DAM using its CMIS connector. What is the mode of authentication used - is it HTTP basic, digest authentication or something custom. So I am not sure what would Adobe Drive send to get authenticated and what would it expect in the response. How do we pass back the session token that we will create.
    Any pointers wrt this are appreciated. That will really help us make progress on this project.
    Thanks!

    Drive CMIS connector uses HTTP basic authentiction.
    Thanks.

  • Developing: Endless loop in Adobe Bridge with and Adobe Drive CMIS Connector

    Hi
    Currently I’m implementing a CMIS-Server for the dam system of my company, using the apache chemistry framework. One of the main requirements is that adobe drive works with it.
    At the moment I implemented only the navigation services (getChildren, getObject, …) and the repository services and test them against adobe drive. It’s already possible to navigate through folders and read assets with ad4 and the finder. So 3 days ago I installed adobe bridge (CS6) and test my server again.
    My test environment is very easy.
    root(1 object)->test1(0 objects; empty)
    First I’m opening my repository with adobe drive and then I switch to bridge and connect it. Bridge shows me the folder test1 with no errors. So I double-click it and now bridge is in an endless loop. The notification switch between ‘Keine anzuzeigenden Elemente’(No elements to show) and ‘Einen Moment bitte, die Suche läuft …’(Searching, please wait …). This only happens in bridge. When I open the folder with the finder it just works, without the loop.
    So I logged all requests, which were send by adobe drive, and get this list.
    Connecting with adobe drive
    getRepositoryInfos
    getTypeChildren (null) -> all basetypes
    getTypeDecendants (cmis:document)
    getTypeChildren (null) -> all basetypes (Why two times?)
    getTypeDecendants (cmis:document) (Why two times?)
    getRepositoryInfos (Why two times?)
    getObjectByPath (/.hidden)
    getObjectByPath (/.hidden)
    getObjectByPath (/.hidden) (Why so often?)
    getObjectByPath (/DCIM)
    getObjectByPath (/mach_kernel)
    getObjectByPath (/.Spotlight-V100)
    getObjectByPath (/.metadata_never_index)
    getObjectByPath (/.metadata_never_index_unless_rootfs)
    getObjectByPath (/.metadata_never_index)
    getObjectByPath (/mach_kernel)
    getObjectByPath (/.metadata_never_index_unless_rootfs)
    getChildren (cmis:folder,0) (rootfolder) returning only one element (test1)
    getObjectParents(cmis:folder,127) (test1) returning the rootfolder
    getObjectByPath (/.hidden)
    getObjectByPath (/mach_kernel) …
    Open the Cmis repository in bridge and doubleclick the repository
    getChildren (cmis:folder,0) (rootfolder) returning only one element (test1)
    getObjectParents(cmis:folder,127) (test1) returning the rootfolder
    Then I double click the test1 folder
    getObject(cmis:folder,127)(test1)
    getChildren(cmis:folder,127) -> empty list
    … (endless loop)
    I already checked getObject and getChildren against a reference implementation (FileShare Repository of apache Chemistry) and it returns exactly the same structure. Only the name and the timestamps are different. So my second though was to check the repository capabilities and as well they are both equal. Now I’m a little bit desperate because I spend already 3 days in try and error bugfixing but nothing worked. So here are my questions.
    Is there a logfile for bridge because I thing this refreshing happens after an exception. I already checked the adobe drive log and it contains only asset not found errors for (e.g mach_kernel …).
    In which circumstances does bridge reloads a folder?
    Debugging of adobe drive: I already read http://forums.adobe.com/message/3928595 but it doesn’t work in AD4 any more, I only get info/error/fatal messages.(I changed the log4j config files in AD4ServiceManager.) Does something changed or did I forget something?
    Why does AD4 make 2 or more times the exact same request? (Look table above).
    I hope my English is good enough to understand.
    Thanks

    After two months I'm a little bit smarter so I can answer some of my question by my own.
    No there is no logfile for bridge, but I was able to debug the scriptcode from the ad plugin, which is installed in bridge.
    If an error occures in the plugin
    I was able to decompile the cmis connector. That helps a lot  when ad logs with weird exceptions.
    Because AD maps the actions of the filebrowser(finder,explorer) to cmis and this one does sometimes the exact action two or more times.
    Unfortunately is wasn't able to fix my main problem, but I found a workaround to use cmis in bridge. I deactivated the ad plugin in bridge and after that action, bride display the cmis volume as normal volume. Sadly some actions like to manage relationships etc. are with this workaround not usable but for me this is alright.

  • Editing and sharing custom metadata/keywords through Adobe Drive in Adobe Bridge

    I am part of a four-person video production unit operating within a local governmental entity. We are currently using four licenses of Adobe Master Collection CS5, and are about to get access to dedicated SAN storage.
    We would like each user to have the ability to assign specific keywords to any given video clip (or remove keywords from clips) within Adobe Bridge, and have the three other users see the same results. I've noticed that Bridge alone will allow for keywords to be added or removed, but this list is specific to each user. Importing one list into other users' profiles is a start, but would no longer work, once keywords are added or taken away.
    The overview page for Adobe Drive 3 says that it, "allows users to edit and view custom metadata/properties through Adobe Drive in Adobe Bridge," but I haven't found any explanation in either the website, forums, or user's guides that delves any farther into this area. If we incorporate Adobe Drive/Bridge into our workflow, will we be able to share/sync keywords between users? Is there some other (affordable) solution that would let us do this?
    Thanks for any insight you might be able to offer.
    Chuck

    Hi,
    Thanks for sharing your case.
    The keywords you mentioned is XMP metadata, if all your digital assets are managed by ADEP CQ DAM service, you can use AD3 with built-in ADEP connector to communicate with the DAM server, then, I think it can meet your requirement, it means, the keywords can be set by one user through metadata panel in Bridge, and can be viewed by other users.
    for custom properites, it's different from XMP metadata, it refers to the properties of one asset which is managed by a Content Management service. users have to use another UI to edit/view them in Br after AD3 is installed.
    here are some requirements to use it.
    1) CMIS 1.0 compiliant server should be used to manage all your digital assets
    2) use the built-in CMIS with AD3 to connect to the server.
    if other kind of servers are used, you should develope a custom connector through AD SDK to enable custom properties feature as well as some other handler required by AD SDK
    thanks 

  • Adobe Drive and Alfresco Enterprise Fails to Check-in With Custom Content Types

    Hello all,
    I've been struggling with some drive limitations over the last few weeks as we try to utilize the CMIS connector to Alfresco.  I am currently testing with Adobe Drive 3.2.0.41 and Alfresco 4.0.1 Enterprise but have tested this behavior with Drive 4.0.2.6 paired with Alfresco 4.1.1.3 and seen the same behavior:
    The issue I am seeing is that I am unable to Check in a new document into the repository when there is a rule set up to apply a custom content type from our model.  After entering my check-in comment and pressing OK, I get an unknown error from Bridge, InDesign, or Photoshop.  It works fine if I do not specialize our type with a rule (leaving the content as cm:content).  The error I recieve in Alfresco is:  org.alfresco.service.cmr.repository.CopyServiceException: The source and destination node must be the same type.
    I understand that this might be a limitation of Drive and Alfresco working together, but I just wanted to see if anyone had any experience with this issue or any potential workaround, since it is pretty limiting for alfresco to not have any non OOTB content types.
    Thanks, your help would be appreciated.
    Mike

    Adobe Drive CC still has this issue. I can dra-n-drop a .PSD into Alfresco 4.2 and it will work perfectly - unless I use Adobe Drive to edit and check-in the file.

  • Viewing XMP Metadata in Adobe Bridge via Adobe Drive Connector

    Hi there,
    I've been trying to view remote file XMP metadata in Adobe bridge via our adobe drive connector. I've added the READ_XMP_METADATA capablitiy, and I've seen the DataType.XMP has been requested. but I'm not sure how to display the metadata on the Adobe bridge metadata panel. since the metadata is embeded in the file, when i browse the file in local drive, the metadata shows fine, but when it's on our remote server, some how bridge doesn't extract the info and display it. I can see the metadata when I browse the remote file in windows explorer adobe drive. and we do download the file to local to a temp copy, browse the temp copy in bridge also showing the metadata, The only thing not working is browsing the remote file in bridge via adobe drive connector.
    Please advise what should be done, in the programmer's guide, it says for each item, request that the server return the XMP data for that asset. How should I do that? If the XMP is embeded in the file, why would I need to request for it, would it be automatically extracted from the file?
    Thanks,

  • How can I get Adobe Bridge to show XMP metadata using Adobe Drive 4 CMIS Connector?

    I have successfully connected to an Alfresco Enterprise Edition 4.1.0 repository, using the Adobe Drive 4, created a test folder and uploaded a jpeg file containing XMP metadata into it.
    When I view the image's metadata (using Adobe Bridge), I observe that only part the standard file properties are displayed.
    When I view a local copy of the image using the same, I see all fields of the standard file properties plus available metadata.
    My question: what should I do in Adobe Bridge to be able to see all available XMP metadata?

    How did you get through to customer service?  They've changed the website and I can't even find phone numbers or a chat button any more.
    Here's my story that I posted on discussion yesterday, but no one has replied:
    I am screaming and pulling my hair out right now!  The last six months with Adobe has been a nightmare.
    Once again I am completely locked out of Creative Cloud and cannot use the apps even though my automatic monthly deduction for payment was just made a couple of days ago.  Creative Cloud continues to reset itself to the trial version which runs out in 30 days and after that I am locked out once again.
    Now it looks like it is harder to access support than before.  Where are chat and the phone numbers now?  This was a nightmare with countless hours spent on chat and the phone over the last six months, and now I don't even know how to access support in order to spend even more time that does not solve the problem.  What am I to do?
    I cannot use the product I have paid for!
    Please help!

  • No Drag-n-Drop feature for my mounted Adobe Drive in my Adobe Bridge CC

    I've developed a custom Drive Connector for our storage server. In Adobe Bridge CC, after connecting and auto-mounting to our server through Adobe Drive 5, there is no Drag-n-Drop feature for my data inside the mounted drive. But, if I browse other directories of my Mac with Bridge, all files are draggable. What could be the problem?
    It's quite strange! Because, files within my mounted drive are draggable through Adobe Bridge CS6, but not in Adobe Bridge CC !!!
    My configuration:
    Mac OSX 10.9.2
    Adobe Bridge CC 6.0.1.6
    Adobe Drive 5.0.2.16
    Our own custom Drive connector

    I too have discovered the lack of Drag-n-Drop support in Bridge when browsing assets provided by my Adobe Drive connector.  I have tried telling Drive that I support nearly all of the Drive features by adding  "Capability"  objects to the ConnectHandler's response object (including Capability.COPY and Capability.MOVE), but that had no effect; Bridge still refuses to let me drag an asset provided by the connector.
    I would very much like to know what I have to do in order to provided Drag-n-Drop functionality.

  • No previews in Bridge with Adobe Drive 3?

    We are using a custom connector for Adobe Drive. Windows Explorer shows the correct thumbnails and previews for asset versions (in the Show Versions UI). However in Bridge we cannot see any thumbnails or previews. Clearing or purging the cache does not help. It turns out that the execute method in the GetPreviewIconHandler class is never called when browsing assets in Bridge. This used to work fine with Adobe Drive 2 (at least for jpg previews, png previews never seemed to work in Bridge).  We tried different Bridge versions (4.0.4.2, 4.0.5.11, 4.1.054) but they all have the same problem. Did anything change regarding this behavior in Adobe Drive 3? Thanks in advance for any advice.

    Indeed, adding the READ_XMP_METADATA capability seems to do the trick.
    Thanks for the quick help.

  • Welcome to the Adobe Drive SDK Forum

    This forum is intended for developer questions on the Adobe Drive SDK. It’s appropriate for third-party asset management vendors that have questions related to the SDK which can be used to create custom connectors for easy access to their DAM servers from the creative desktop. A custom connector can expose features such as check-in, version comments, and version retrieval. With the customized connector, Adobe Drive 2.1 offers users an easy way to connect to a DAM server and access it as a network drive on the user's file system. Users can treat remote managed assets as if they were local, browsing them with the platform file browser or through Adobe Bridge.

  • Using Adobe Drive to upload images to alfresco

    Hi all,
    I am using Adobe Drive 2.1 with InDesign CS4 to connect to Alfresco.When I got connected to my alfresco with Adobe Drive a new drive (z:) is created and I can see the alfresco folders there.
    Imagine that I have and InDesign document opened with a local image placed in it. We want (programmatically) the image to be copied to drive "z:" when we do the check in of the InDesign document (so other people can open the InDesign document with no image link lost (everybody will have a drive z: because everybody will have Adobe Drive)), but unfortunately the image is not uploaded to alfresco until we manually do a check in from the Adobe Drive contex menu  in Windows explorer, so the rest of the people have a image link lost problem.
    My quetion is,  Is there any way to upload the image programmatically to alfresco from InDesign? if not, Is there any other way to do this? perhaps using the Adobe Drive SDK?
    Thanks in advance,
    Alvaro.

    Currently, there is no direct method to upload images programmatically via Adobe Drive. Adobe Drive SDK is used to develop custom connector.
    BTW, InDesgin has a function called package(Menu:File->Package). After you open a file with linked files and click menu File->Package, you specify a folder in Adobe Drive disk(Z:), then all related files will be saved to the specified folder and checked in automatically, no matter the original linked files are checked into the server or not. The disadvantage is that it may break your current folder structure. If the package function can meet your requirement, you can refer InDesign SDK from http://www.adobe.com/devnet/indesign/sdk.html to develop a plugin/extension to do this work.

  • Adobe Drive 4 - log4j.xml settings ignored

    I've been looking at Adobe Drive 4, both with our custom connector and the sample connectors, and I can't get any changes to the log4j.xml file to be honored. I can adjust the log level from the "Settings" panel of the Adobe Drive 4 Connect UI, but that has two major limitations: 1) It only goes to the "Info" level (there's no Debug or Trace), and 2) Only the com.adobe.* packages get logged
    I'm editing the log4j.xml file in what I believe is the correct location for AD4 (C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\AD4ServiceManager\configuration). 
    I've added a logger for the sample connectors as described in the SDK documentation:
    <logger name="sample">
          <level value="DEBUG" />
      </logger>
    I've also tried manually setting the Root Logger's Priority:
    <root>
            <priority value="debug"></priority>
            <appender-ref ref="AdobeCSIDefaultAppender"/>
        </root>
    But after doing this launching Drive, then using the FTP sample connector, no log messages for the connector ever get added to the log file.  I know I'm looking at the correct log file because it gets updated with messages from the com.adobe classes. 
    As a test, I also added a call to a com.adobe Logger from within a FTP connector handler class, and it gets added just fine.  For example, from within the sample FTP GetChildrenHadler:
    Logger.getLogger(Path.class).info("TEST MESSAGE");  <---  Appears in Log file
    Logger.getLogger(GetChildrenHandler.class).info("TEST MESSAGE");  <---  Does not appear in Log file
    Is there something else I need to do to get AD4 to use the log4j.xml configuration? 

    Hi Jianfeng, thanks for your response.
    I tried making only the change you suggested, but the result was the same.
    I reverted back to the original log4j.xml (as installed), then replaced the com.adobe logger with the sample logger as you suggested (full file contents below).  After making the change and restarting Adobe Drive, I still get the same behavior as I mentioned in my original post. 
    To recap (all of these test calls were put at the beginning of the FTP connector's GetChildrenHander.execute() method) :
    Using a com.adobe logger, messages show up based on the Log Level setting in the Adobe Drive UI dialog:
    Logger.getLogger(Path.class).debug("TEST MESSAGE")  <-- Never appears in log file
    Logger.getLogger(Path.class).info("TEST MESSAGE")  <-- Appears if Log Level setting is Info
    Logger.getLogger(Path.class).warn("TEST MESSAGE")  <-- Appears if Log Level setting is Info or Warn
    Logger.getLogger(Path.class).error("TEST MESSAGE")  <-- Always appears
    Using a sample package logger, only ERROR and FATAL-level messages show up, regardless of the Log Level setting in the Adobe Drive UI dialog.  I assume this is because the Root logger threshold is fixed at ERROR level.  For example:
    Logger.getLogger(GetChildrenHandler.class).debug("TEST MESSAGE");  <---  Does not appear in Log file
    Logger.getLogger(GetChildrenHandler.class).info("TEST MESSAGE");  <---  Does not appear in Log file
    Logger.getLogger(GetChildrenHandler.class).warn("TEST MESSAGE");  <---  Does not appear in Log file
    Logger.getLogger(GetChildrenHandler.class).error("TEST MESSAGE");  <---  Appears in Log file
    Thanks for your help,

  • Getting going with Adobe Drive 4

    So we're looking for a Digital Asset Management system. Since we use the Master Collection, times 14, so an Adobe solution would be great!
    We found Adobe Drive 4 to be a perfect fit for us...
    However getting started has been a pain in the ***....
    We have a Mac Pro, with 2 x quadcore 3.2's, 32 GB of RAM, 1 x 256GB SSD, 26 TB eSATA and Firewire 800 connectors... Installed on it is the Master Collection, OSX Server and Adobe Drive, that's it!
    Fast forward to yesterday as my ip address, 10.0.0.108, as I type in the Adobe CQ Digital Asset Management details, server url, username, password, desplay name, I get the following error...
    "The server could not be connected"
    com.adobe.drive.connector.api.exception.RemoteSystemNotFoundException: Failed to connect repository
    I've tried everything I can think of to get Adobe Drive 4 connected so I can get our assests under control... I'm at my wits end an need help getting this up and running..
    PLEASE!
    Ted

    You’ll need to identify an asset management system to work with…either from Adobe or a number of outside vendors. To fully enable the Adobe Drive connection to a DAM server, one needs an Adobe Drive plug-in (what we call connectors) to interface with the DAM. Adobe Drive includes a connector that is designed to work with Adobe’s CQ DAM, now Adobe Experience Manager DAM. We also include a generic CMIS compliant connector that will work with servers that implement the Content Management Interoperability Services (CMIS) specification. There are also custom connectors available from third-party vendors that are designed to work with their DAM systems.
    If you are interested in learning more about the Adobe Experience Manager DAM, go here.

  • Versioning in Adobe Drive 3.0

    Hello,
    Have some problems with versioning in Adobe Drive 3.0
    'View Versions' in Bridge display icon only for current version. 'Open' version returns corrupted file.
    The same code works fine with Adobe Drive 2.6
    Did not found any differences for version handling in sdk docs 3.0
    Any suggestions?

    Hi
    Could you please share more detail information?
    Which connector are you using? the built-in ADEP, CMIS connector or a custom connector?
    What is the icon for the current version? a file system icon representing those files with the same file extension or a bitmap thumbnail? how about other versions?
    What does you mean "'Open' version returns corrupted file"? you openned the current version or the previous version? Did the application openning the version crash or you could still open the version, however the file content is incomplete?
    for your information, We never released Adobe Drive  2.6, only 2.0, 2.1, 3.0.
    Furthermore, you can create a Environment variable named "AdobeDriveLogLevel" and set its value to "DEBUG", reproduce this issue and post the logs under <userdata>\Adobe\Adobe Drive CS5\logs and \Adobe\CS5ServiceManager\logs here or send them to [email protected]
    Thanks

  • Planning an Adobe Drive & CS6 Installation

    Greetings,
    I have been assigned to plan and install a CS3 (inc Version Cue) to CS6 migration.
    The Creative Suite side of things I have a handle on.  So Far So Good.
    What I am in the dark on is the Asset Management side of things.  I gather Version Cue is a thing of the past and Adobe Drive is the current source/content management application.  What I can't find is any detailed planning and deployment documentation.  I have found heaps of marketing fluff, but nothing that will help me work out what infrastructure I need.
    I am looking for deployemnt design ideas and integration information to plan the back end - that is servers, NAS, network, DR that sort of information.
    This is a small deployment with only 3 or 4 creatives but managing the content and centralising the day to day and archive storage is very important (for back up and DR purposes).
    Any idea where I need to look to find the info?  Thanks
    Colin

    Colin,
    Adobe Drive 2.1 was the last release of Adobe Drive that supported working with Version Cue. With the release of Adobe Drive 3 in August 2011, the Version Cue CS4 Connector and the Version Cue Migration Tool were removed from the product. The latest release of Adobe Drive is version 4 which is designed to work with CS6 products. As you gathered, Adobe announced Version Cue end-of-life with the release of Creative Suite 5 and is no longer supported.
    We suggest that customers in this situation (needing to migrate from Version Cue) identify an asset management system to work with going forward; either from Adobe (Adobe CQ DAM) or a number of outside vendors.
    To ensure its clear, Adobe Drive is an application that allows one to connect the following CS applications (InDesign, Illustrator, Photoshop, Adobe Bridge & InCopy) to a DAM system. Having an Adobe Drive integration provides full access to content on a DAM system from the Explorer or Finder and includes the ability to check in, check out, add check in comments, compare versions and more from directly within the supported CS applications.
    In addition to Adobe Drive, to fully enable the connection to a DAM server, one needs an Adobe Drive plug-in (what we call connectors) to interface with the DAM system. We include a generic CMIS compliant connector that will work with servers that implement the Content Management Interoperability Services (CMIS) specification and we also include a connector that is design to work with Adobe's CQ DAM. There are also custom connectors available from third-party vendors that are designed to work with their DAM system.
    Feel free to contact me directly if you have more questions.
