Adobe Exam AD0-E906 Topic 2 Question 6 Discussion

Actual exam question for Adobe's AD0-E906 exam

Question #: 6
Topic #: 2

A user applies a custom metadata schema to a folder in AEM Assets However, the user receives an error message. "Unable to edit properties", when trying to save changes to one of the metadata properties for all assets within that folder.

What are two reasons for receiving this message? (Choose two.)

AThe user does not have the Modify permission allowed for the folder.

BThe assets in that folder have been check out/locked by another user.

CTwo or more metadata properties in the schema are mapped to the same path.

DThe metadata property being modified is mapped to an invalid path.

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: A, D

There are two possible reasons for receiving the 'Unable to edit properties' error when trying to save metadata properties in AEM:

Insufficient Modify Permission: The user needs to have Modify permissions for the folder or assets within the folder to be able to edit the metadata. Without this permission, changes to metadata cannot be saved.

Invalid Metadata Path: If a metadata property in the schema is mapped to an invalid JCR path, AEM will not be able to save the changes. The system requires valid paths in the JCR to store metadata properties correctly, and any invalid path will result in an error.

Option B, involving asset locking, would prevent editing altogether rather than giving an error during property saving. Option C, mapping two properties to the same path, would result in overwriting issues rather than an error about saving properties.

For more details, refer to AEM's Metadata Schema documentation and permissions management.

This question is making me thirsty for a nice cold AEM-flavored beverage. But in all seriousness, I think the answer is either C or D. Gotta love those metadata schema issues, am I right?

Ugh, I hate it when I can't edit metadata properties. If it's not the permissions, it's probably something to do with the schema configuration. I'll go with C and D just to be safe.

Let's check those out and see if that's the problem.

Yeah, that could be it. Maybe two properties are mapped to the same path.

I agree. It could also be an invalid path for the property being modified.

I believe both A and B could be valid reasons for receiving the error message. The user's permission and asset lock status are crucial factors.

I also think that the assets in the folder being check out/locked by another user could be causing the issue.

Haha, this question is making me feel like I'm back in the AEM Assets lab. I'd say B is a pretty common issue, but I'm leaning more towards C being the culprit here.

It's important to check both possibilities when encountering the 'Unable to edit properties' message in AEM Assets.

I think C could also be causing the error message, having two metadata properties mapped to the same path can definitely cause issues.

This is a tricky one. I'm guessing it's either C or D, but I'm not sure which one is the correct answer. Maybe they mapped the properties to the same path or tried to modify a property with an invalid path.
