To install the latest version of Acquia DAM module, you must be using Drupal Core 9.4 or higher. Run a composer command to check why a specific version of the Acquia DAM module cannot be installed. The command will tell you which Drupal version is currently installed.
You can install the Acquia DAM module using Composer or Drush, or manually in Drupal. For technical details, see the Drupal README documentation.
Use the following command to install with Composer:
Use the following command to install with Drush:
Install in Drupal by visiting /admin/modules and selecting Acquia DAM and Acquia DAM - Enhanced integration links under Media. Then select Install.
This integration uses version 3 (v3) embed links. If you are currently using version 2 (v2) embeds in your implementation, be aware of this version difference before proceeding.
Once you’ve installed the module, follow these steps:
Next, on the Configuration page, select the Metadata tab to choose the metadata fields you want to map from the DAM to the Acquia DAM module. Select Save.
Note that dependent metadata fields cannot be mapped to Drupal.
To map the metadata:
4. Select the Manage Fields tab and Add field. Add a new or existing field and label. Then, save.
5. Fill in settings for the new field and save.
6. Repeat those steps for each of the fields you need to create in Drupal.
7. Select the Edit tab and return to the Map Fields section. Under Drupal mapped field, select a newly created Drupal field to map to each DAM field.
After you've used the Media Library to find and embed DAM assets, you can check to see that your metadata mapping is working for those assets by selecting Content, Media, and DAM Media. For an individual asset, select the dropdown and Edit to view and verify the metadata is correct.
