One of the biggest advantages of integrating Adobe Experience Manager (AEM) with Adobe Target is the ability to reuse existing content as Experience Fragments (XF). Although this may seem straightforward, the steps that are scattered across various sections of the Adobe documentation. In this blog, we’ve compiled the steps to help developers take full advantage of this feature.

Note: This isn’t a deeply technical blog but instead highlights the steps to get XF exporting working properly. At the end of the article we’ve provided additional resources if you wish to dive deeper.

1. Create an Adobe Target Legacy Configuration. ALegacy Cloud Configuration for Adobe Target is required regardless of whether you connect through the Adobe Developer Console (Adobe I/O) to export Experience Fragments.
2. Configure which folder(s) from your DAM will support XF exporting to Target. After configuring the Legacy Cloud Config, you will be presented with the option to bind this configuration to an asset folder through its properties. The configuration will propagate downwards through the folder’s tree and can be overwritten at any point in the tree if another config overlaps.
3. Configure the Externalizer Service. This is already set for you if you are using AEM as a Cloud Service.. Otherwise, make sure you have correctly configured the author and publish domains. Plenty of information is available on how to set this up, so I won't delve deeply into this point again.
4. Implement the Link Rewriter Provider Interface. If you plan to export your Experience Fragments (XFs) as HTML offers to Adobe Target, you should know that all links (including images) will be relative URLs.
5. Choose the Correct Workspace. Lastly, make sure to set the correct Adobe Target Workspace with your AEM instance. By default, all the XF will be published into the “default” Adobe Target workspace. This configuration is part of the Adobe Target Configurations from the Cloud Services menu.
