• Adobe Experience Manager instance (6.4 preferred)
  • We.Retail Sample site (Please make sure you are installing a version compatible with your AEM version)
• Postman
• OpenWhisk CLI
  • Download the executable from the OpenWhisk GitHub repository. Choose the version that matches your operating system and download the compressed archive.
  • Extract the executable from the compressed archive and place it in a folder of your choice.
  • Add the folder into which you placed the executable to your PATH environment variable. This enables you to call the CLI from any command-line window. Or you use the CLI directly in the folder using ./wsk.

For Windows user, please make sure you have Shell and the following set up

Set up I/O Runtime namespace

Please make sure you’ve installed the OpenWhisk CLI at this step. Go to Runtime namespaces file to find your assigned namespace based on your assign number (e.g. user01), create a .wskprops file containing your authorization key, your namespace, and the path to the Runtime API host. Here’s an example:

AUTH=<Your auth>
APIHOST=runtime.adobe.io
NAMESPACE=<Your namespace>

Once your .wskprops is ready and set up with your authorization and namesapce, place it in your home directory, where the CLI can access it to set those properties when it starts.

An alternative method to configure your instance of the CLI is to do it through a CLI command. Open a command-line window and type the following command:

wsk property set --apihost runtime.adobe.io --auth <Your auth> --namespace <Your namespace>
