Sitecore XMCloud Setup on Development Machine - Part 2

In my previous blog, I explained how to deploy an existing project to the XM Cloud portal. Now, in this blog, we will connect the Next.js application directly to the XM cloud application through the Experience Edge endpoint.

Prerequisites:

  • You must have one Organization account in Sitecore portal (https://portal.sitecorecloud.io/ ) which has access to XMCloud.  And your account should be associated with that Organization account with admin access. 
  • Install .Net SDK 6.0 or higher and runtime.

Please view the video for step by step guidance on XMCloud installation on local development machine

Please check the below blog to find the error I faced during the setup-

  • How much time till take to craete a XM site from scratch?

    It will take 5-10 mins to create a new XM site from scratch.

    It may take less than 30 minutes for Sitecore Experience Manager to deploy a Sitecore instance, but it depends on the configurations and templates you use.

    Yes, It's a proper next-generation SaaS-based headless platform.
