AEM Cloud Service Sling Distribution Event Handling

Monitor and react to content distribution lifecycle events using the Sling Distribution API.

When to Use This Skill

Use Sling Distribution event handling for:

• Monitoring distribution lifecycle: Track package creation, queueing, and delivery
• Custom post-distribution actions: Cache warming, notifications, analytics
• Distribution auditing: Log and track all distribution events
• Failure handling: React to dropped packages and distribution failures
• Integration workflows: Trigger external systems after successful distribution

For programmatic publishing, use the Replication API instead.
