Using Jackrabbit UserManager APIs to create AEM Users and Groups

You can develop an Adobe Experience Manager (AEM) OSGi bundle that uses the Jackrabbit UserManager APIs to perform AEM user operations. This API provides access to both AEM users and groups and is located in the org.apache.jackrabbit.api.security.user Java package.

In this development article, a custom Sling Servlet is created that dynamically creates AEM users and groups using the UserManager API. For more information, see Interface UserManager.
