Comment #2
aurora.luzzardiMy current workaround was reverting this deleted configs:
Manually change the modules dependencies to remove the dependency on the media_acquiadam to set as media:
Run the config import and add a custom CSS to hide the Embed Media buttom from CKEditor to stop using it.
/**
* Hide the Acquia DAM button in CKEditor toolbar
*/
.cke_button.cke_button__acquia_dam {
display: none !important;
}
It would be great to have some information on how to properly handle the Entity Embed and Entity Browser and why they are not migrated during the process.

rajeshreeputraPlease share step to create embed entity using Media: Acquia DAM, will look into it. Regarding Entity Browser it's already taken care as part of migration, see.

rajeshreeputraMoved to Media: Acquia DAM module's issue queue.
Comment #8
nickolajThis patch updates the migration process to automatically update module dependencies in embed button and entity browser configurations from `media_acquiadam` to `media`, ensuring these configs remain functional after the migration completes and the legacy module is disabled.

aurora.luzzardiHi rajeshreeputra,
I'm not sure how those were created as I'm not the first developer of the project, but by my testing shows that it was used together with the modules:
Entity Browser
Entity Embed
The entity browser was created using EntityBrowser widget from the Media AcquiaDAM module.
The Entity Embed after uses that EntityBrowser to allow insert media via CKEditor.
I will test the patch from nickolaj to see if solve the issue too.

aurora.luzzardinickolaj your patch only applies the workaround to remove media_acquiadam from the configuration. However, this does not restore Entity Browser or Entity Embed functionality.
The reason is that the Acquia DAM module no longer provides the required Entity Browser widget to support Entity Browser–based embeds. That widget exists only in the legacy Media Acquia DAM module. It appears that the Acquia DAM module has intentionally dropped support for Entity Browser in favor of using Drupal’s newer Media embed approach.
I’m fine proceeding with the patch as-is, as I can add CSS at the project level to hide the old Entity Embed button. However, for other projects, this change may cause confusion unless the behavior change is clearly documented and communicated, since Entity Browser–based embeds will no longer be available.

japerryI'd agree to be hesitant to auto-update / remove Entity browser on a global basis, but I think the point about adding specific documentation on migrating away from Entity Browser is very relevant.
Comment #14
pavlosdan"All functionality of Media: Acquia DAM has been brought into Acquia DAM 1.1.5+. Migrate Today!"
I'd argue that this line implies that Entity Browser should be supported. Why force a move away from Entity Browser? That's still a widely used and relevant module.
Comment #15
pavlosdanAnd if support is dropped, then we need to have an upgrade path from entity browser to media library.
Comment #16
rajeshreeputraKept the existing MR intact and created a new one to support the migration of the Entity Embed button.
