Headless Setup introduction
Below is a simple path for creating, managing, and delivering experiences using AEM as a Cloud Service in five steps for users who are already familiar with AEM and headless technology (so they cross-reference the detailed documentation). Each guide builds on the previous, so it is recommended to explore them thoroughly and in order.
Audience audience
The tasks described are necessary for a basic end-to-end demonstration of AEM鈥檚 headless capabilities. Anyone with administrator access to a test AEM instance can follow these guides to understand headless delivery in AEM, though someone with developer experience is ideal.
However in a production situation, the tasks are performed by different personas a varying number of times. For example:
- Administrators must set up the initial configuration and folder structure for the content normally only once or sporadically.
- Information architects generally add new models as the needs of the organization evolve.
- Content authors continually create content as Content Fragments based on the models defined by the architects.
