Enabling HCL Digital Experience integration for stores

Before you can use content from HCL Digital Experience in your stores, you must enable the integration for the store.

Enabling integration for a new store

You can enable integration with HCL Digital Experience for a store (or stores within the same data model) during store publish by setting the enableExternalContent parameter in the gradle.properties file.

When the store is published, the tools that are available for the store are able to launch the HCL Digital Experience DAM Picker tool via a Pencil icon on any field that represents a file, URL, or image. A store with access to the Marketing tool can also select HCL Digital Experience External Content as Marketing Content and launch the HCL Digital Experience Content Picker tool via the Pencil icon.

Enabling integration for existing stores

For existing stores that are already published, you can enable integration with HCL Digital Experience for each store.
  1. Update the records in the authoring database for STORECONF by using the following sample SQL statements.
    insert into storeconf (storeent_id, name, value) values (<your-store-id>, 'hcl.imagePathFilter', '/dx')
    insert into storeconf (storeent_id, name, value) values (<your-store-id>, 'hcl.externalContent.enabled', 'true')
  2. If you are using the Elasticsearch-based search solution, restart the Query service container for the changes to take effect.
