AEM - Restrict DAM Asset Activation to Publish Instance

As now a days we use dynamic media so we do not need assets on publish environment.

In order to restrict the DAM asset activation we have done following steps:

Create a user on every environment's author instance with full access excluding access on /content/dam/<project-name>. For now we have created a user named replication-user.

2. Go to replication agent of the author.

3. Click on edit, on the model window add the name of the user created in Agent User ID field and click on ok.

4. Now when you publish any asset under/content/dam/<project-name> it will not be replicated to the publish instance from the author environment.

Hope this helps!!

Happy Coding 🙏
