For getting direct access to the repository and the JCR API, use the SlingRepository service, which is an extension of the javax.jcr.Repository with admin-login capabilities (if you don't need that, you can simply use Repository as service reference). Assuming you are in a component/service and use the SCR annotations, this would look like: /** @scr.reference */ protected SlingRepository repository; public void jcrMethod() { // uses admin credentials from sling repository component config, use with care! Session adminSession = repository.loginAdministrative(null); ... // manual login Session session = repository.login(new SimpleCredentials("user", "password"); } If you want to use the Sling resource API for JCR nodes, you can create your own resource resolver from an existing JCR session: /** @scr.reference */ protected JcrResourceResolverFactory jcrResourceResolverFactory; public void resourceMethod(Session session) { ResourceResolver resolver = jcrResourceResolverFactory.getResourceResolver(session); Resource res = resolver.getResource("/some/path"); .... } Regards, Alex -- Alexander Klimetschek alexander.klimetsc...@day.com
