Restrict custom metadata for DAM assets

Can we restrict custom metadata to appear only for a few DAM assets? For eg, I have assets under two folders, myProject1 and myProject2 in DAM. Suppose I want the custom metadata fields to show up only for the assets under myProject1, can that be done? If yes, how?
This is with respet to the details in http://wem.help.adobe.com/enterprise/en_US/10-0/wem/dam/how_to_edit_metadata.html

Hey Sham,
I have customized the granite interface to have the additional metadata field.
I have even  overlayed /apps/dam/gui/content/assets/metadataeditor/items/content/col2/image/items to add an additional metadata node , to be present in the granite interface, but i see that it works fine for "projectA", ie. both png and jpeg files have the sample metadata in the granite interface, but the .png files of projects, other than "projectA"  eg geometrixx have the sample metadata field, while the jpg files dont, after using the function: function(f, r, p) { if (p.indexOf("/content/dam/project/providers") != 0) { f.hide(); } return true;.
Kindly suggest where i have gone wrong.
Regards,
NZ

  • Register brand based metadata for DAM assets

    Hi,
         I am trying to create new metadata property for DAM assets specific to our application. I follow the procedure stated in the below link.
         http://dev.day.com/docs/en/cq/current/dam/how_to_edit_metadata.html#Creating%20New%20Metad ata%20Property%20for%20Assets
         But the procedure talks about adding metadata which will become applicable for all assets. Hence, double clicking on any DAM image will show all metadata added as above.
         But as per our requirement, the metadata set must be different for different brands (different folders) inside the same dam. So, when clicking on a image in folder1, the metadata edit page should show metadata specific to that folder1 and when image in folder2 is clicked, the metadata edit page should show metadata specific to folder2.
         Any pointers to achieve this will be very helpful. Thanks in advance.

    Just a guess but you might have to change /libs/cq/ui/widgets/source/widgets/wcm/DamAdmin.Actions.js and then replace
    var json = CQ.HTTP.eval("/libs/dam/content/asseteditors/asseteditor.overlay.infinity.json" + suffix);
                if (!json.formItems) {
                    json.formItems = CQ.HTTP.eval("/libs/dam/content/asseteditors/formitems.overlay.infinity.json" + suffix);
    With your own servlet JSON response based on current path and then render mentadata you want to render.
    If your requirnment is just persisting certain metadata based on current path and not edit it from UI, then change DAM Update Asset workflow and add additonal step after metadata extraction to do this.

  • Adding new metadata in DAM asset editor

    Hi All,
    I have a requirement wherein two projects reside on same instance, apps/ProjectA and apps/ProjectB . Now Project A has DAM customized, ie. a new metadata added and hence files,  /apps/dam/content/asseteditors/formitems and folders with files under  /apps/dam/gui/components have been modified to take care of creation of new metadata. Now my question is, Is it possible to have such DAM changes constrained to projectA alone, and Project B using default DAM?
    Is it possible to overlay DAM inside the apps/ProjectA alone?
    Kindly let me know.
    Regards,
    NZ

    Thank you jorg, so you say by applying ACL and deny read access for project B, and if Dam folder is Overlayed under  apps such as apps/dam, I can restrict modified version of DAM for project B thereby ProjectB using the foundation Dam and have modified version of dam for project A? Please correct me if I am wrong, since I have the jsp's such as child asset and metadata editor jsp modified after being overlayed.

  • Custom Metadata for Microsoft Word

    Since Microsoft Word has a limited property/metadata fields and there is no budget to purchase a document management system, I am thinking of storing custom metadata fields in a XML file or a database.
    Can Ultra Search be configured to search the Word documents by full-text and metadata fields? If so, how?

    You should start by downloading the Acrobat SDK and building the sample plugins.  This is C/C++, there is no support for .NET.
    Next you will need to read the relevant section of ISO 32000-1:2008 (the PDF standard) or a book such as “Developing with PDF” (from O’Reilly).  This is required to understand how the PDF file format and objects work.
    Finally, you can then start looking at the SDK documentation around the Cos and PD layers to apply to what you need to do.

  • Custom metadata for review comments

    Hi,
    My users are using Acrobat and reader to review documents. There are tons of comments posted during this review process. Currently, once comments are included in the review, we don't have a way to custom tag the comments. Which can be used to further sort and classify the documents. The only categories that I can sort the comments on are by "type", "Page", "Status", "Author" etc. I want to be able to include custom categories. Also, there is a possibility that a single comment can fall into multiple categories. Any way to achieve this in Adobe Acrobat and Reader?

    Maybe try the Acrobat SDK forum.

  • Adobe CQ5.5 Digital Asset - Delete default metadata and how to create custom metadata

    Hi
    I am trying to create custom metadata for all format of assets (PDF, DOC, TXT, etc.,). I have created the dam folder under apps node as below:-
    Step 1:  /apps/dam/content/asseteditors/formitems
    Step 2:  Included the four property as textfield and selection according to our requirement under formitems
    Step 3:  I changed the cq:allowedTemplates from /content/dam/jcr:content
    Step 4:  I tried to upload the asset, I could get the custom metadata for Txt, Doc, PPT, XLSX
    Step 5:  But for JPG, PNG and PDF I am getting the default metadata which is huge list.
    How to control this one? I want my custom metadata only displayed for creation assets. Find the attached.
    CRX - Custom Template Configured
    CRX - Custom Metadata populated for ZIP format
    CRX - Custom Metadata not populated for PDF format

    Hi,
    If you read the description under section http://dev.day.com/docs/en/cq/current/dam/how_to_edit_metadata.html#Creating New Metadata Property for Assets you will find yout the format for images and its different format stores at different location. So to deal with image metadata plz try below
    1. Create a "image" node under "/apps/dam/content/asseteditors" as sling folder and configure it similar to "/apps/dam/content/asseteditors"
    2. under this folder again copy paste the "/libs/dam/content/asseteditors/formitems" and customize it accordingly
    Above will help you to manage with all types of images. Now if you want to have separate group of property for different image types then similar to above you have to create format node inside image folder for example jpg file type create a node with name "jpeg" under "image" node & configure similarly as you did for image.
    I hope it will help you to proceed. Please let me know for more information.
    Thanks,

  • Editing Autofill List for Custom Metadata Fields

    I have 13,000+ photographs cataloged in Aperture 2.1 In an effort to better manage these photographs, I have added custom metadata for my own use. The fields let me know whether I have printed for my portfolio, watermarked, added to my web site, status of release, etc. All of this data is manually entered and at times my fingers don't always hit the correct keys on the keyboard so I end up with autofill data that is incorrect. I have been unable to find a way to edit the autofill data for custom metadata fields. Selecting 'Edit Autofill List' does not give me access to my custom field autofill information. Am I missing something? Is this an oversight on my part or on the part of the application?

    Unfortunately I'm not using presets to do this. I don't think presets will help me with this, but it could be just that I don't understand presets that well. I use presets for entering Metadata from a shoot as I 'import' the raw files into Aperture. Maybe I'm trying to do something that Aperture was never intended to do, yet I need to have as few locations where I track
    As an example, as I print a photograph for my portfolio I mark one of the custom fields labelled 'Printed' as 'Yes'. Later I can locate those 4 or 5 star photographs that haven't been printed and decide if I want to print them. I use the same type of arrangement for my website with an 'Added to web' indicator as 'Yes'. I may also mark that 'Printed' field as 'N/A'. The reason follows. For watermarking photographs before adding them to my site via iWeb, I export and the photographs and then reimport the watermarked photographs into a separate project but since these photographs are at a lower resolution, have a different color profile and are jpegs, I never print them for my portfolio so I mark them 'N/A' in the 'Printed' field. Well my fingers do slip on the keys and before I realize it the nifty autofill now requires that I type not just the 'N' to get an 'N/A', but I must type it all, because one time I typed 'N and a space' or some such and that is what autofills. It even happens with 'Yes'. I suppose the real answer is to be more careful as I type, but that is not my reality.
    So, all I'm looking for is a way to have access to the autofill list that is created for my custom metadata fields so that I can delete the erroneous autofill entry. I've thought about deleting the field entirely and recreating it, but that would remove all those indicators or flags that I have already entered for my photographs.
    Alternatively I could find an IPTC field that I am not using and find a way to use it, (because those fields have autofill lists that can be edited). However my record keeping would be exported with the photograph. Some of the information that I collect is private and should not be included in the metadata while other information should be; that is why I've settled on custom metadata fields.
    I hope there is a simple answer to this that I'm overlooking.
    If someone else has another way of tracking this same information that is better than the custom metadata fields, I would like to hear about it. However, it would mean reworking all my photographs that Aperture currently manages.

  • Custom metadata fields used in file name?

    Hi,
    Is it possible to add to the list of meta data fields that are used as tokens for file names?
    I've been using Rob Cole's excellent custom meta data in the library module and now I want to use these fields to name the file during export...
    While at it, is it possible to add the same custom meta data fields to the info view overlay in develop mode?
    Cheers,
    Bonny

    1.  Its possible an export filter (post-process action) could be defined that supports the custom metadata for export filenaming (Lightroom itself does not have any other hooks I'm aware of) - dunno if anyone's done that, yet.
    2.  I think not (see PM).

  • Retrieve a list of different values of custom metadata field of an UCM connection

    Hi
    I am planning to create a custom search document functionality for my UCM and Portal integration. Basically, I am planing to create CMIS queries dynamically. In order to create the CMIS query, I need the possible values of custom metadata for the user to select from and through a backing bean construct the cmis query based on this selection.
    I have created a custom metadata field (lets say, 'KindOf'). So I want to show the user a list of all possible 'KindOf' values, so user selects the values he wants and I use those values to build the cmis query and show the results.
    What is the easiest, best practices, how would you do it, way of achieving this?
    I have little experience with UCM.
    Regards

    Hi,
    As rightly pointed out by jiri machotka, you want that option list .
    if you create a option list metadata, you have to publish schema to get the values. You can do it by two ways:
    1) Wait for the event which publish the schema automatically.
    2)Select "Publish schema" in the options menu of the Configuration Manager.
    Some good implementation info about searching can be found at - Students at Oracle: UCM: Creating search and check-in profiles with custom metadata
    and http://www.slideshare.net/heikim/effective-strategies-for-searching-oracle-ucm
    Otherwise if you want faceted search or something near to enterprise searching capabilities, then go for enterprise search engines.
    I have recently worked on Enterprise Search Engines on various CMS products for better,intuitive and relevant search results.
    Hope, above information can help you out.

  • Metadata for file

    How to create a custom metadata for a file/document to be uploaded to KM and use just that metadata in search.
    Kiran

    Hi,
    I defined some new metadata but it doesn't show up in the advanced TREX search. The properties are marked as indexable and the search index was reindexed.
    Where should I enter this search query? In the "Filter by Custom Properties" in the Advanced Search screen or is there some dropdown list to choose from? When I enter the string in the "Filter by Custom Properties" field no results are found...
    We didn't define a bundle file yet, the properties still use their technical key (e.g. company_division), could this be the problem?
    I use the technical key in the "Filter by Custom Properties" or should I find the properties in the "Filter by Predefined Properties" dropdown box (if so, why don't they show up)?

  • Rich Text Editor Option for Custom Metadata

    Hi,
    We have created custom profiles for our clients. In one such profile which was created for news updates, client wants to have rich text editor in case of certain custom metadata fields such as description similar to comments.
    As far i as i understand this can be achieved by creating region defintion which gives the option to create a web asset which can edited using site studio api. But is it possible to bring in rich text editor features for custom metadata fields in profiles ?
    Regards,
    Boopathy P

    I'd suggest looking into the profile rule's "Use custom include" option.
    You need to build the new control on your own, but you'll be able to plug it in via the "Use custom include" profile rule option. It's on the "Edit Rule Field" page.
    You can also override the template, but I believe that's a lil' too hardcoded for best practices. This way, you can create a ckeditor textarea and apply it to any metadata you wish (of course, it's up to you to make sure the datatypes match).
    Let us know if this helps!

  • User's custom field for metadata entrance

    It would be wonderful if the user could add a series of metadata custom fields.
    I'm thinking in a situation where you might be photographing for a national museum or an art gallery where you could enter a custom field for the artist's name, date of birth & death, nationality, restoration details (who did what & when?), etc..

    I second that one, too. It would be immensely useful. After all, LR is a database, so adding custom fields shouldn't be too difficult, should it?
    I'd be happy for these to be internal only, not exportable.

  • Get value based on column names for custom metadata field of Webcenter Content

    In UCM, I created a custom metadata field of type Text.  I then enabled optlist in that field.  I populate values to the optList, I am using a View.  The View has three columns.  Let us call them ID, Key, Value.  OptList displays the Keys in its list.  I then create a Content (Content ID: MyContent) in Webcenter Content and choose values from OptList for my new metadata field (MyField).
    From Webcenter Portal, I am populating a selectOneChoice with values of MyField in the Content ID: MyContent.  Remember from previous step, the values populated in selectOneChoice is the list of values selected from optList field MyField.  This optList is in-turn populated from View.  After the user selects a value in selectOneChoice, in Javascript, I need to alert a message in this format "value chosen - corresponding value from View of optList that populates MyField"
    I think an example will be useful:
    Here is a View that I created in Configuration Manager applet in Admin Applets of Webcenter Content:
    ID | State | Capital
    1 | North Carolina | Raleigh
    2 | California | Sacramento
    3 | Illinois | Chicago
    Then, I create a Custom Field (Name: MyField).  MyField is an optList the values are populated from View created above.  The internal value and display value are both State.  Then I Check-In a new content with Content Id: MyContent.  For MyContent, I select these values from OptList for MyField: {North Carolina, Illinois}.
    In my Webcenter Portal application, I create a Content Presenter Taskflow.  I configure it as a single item content presenter.  I assign MyContent as Content Id.  Then, in templateView, I get all values of MyField in MyContent and display them as selectOneChoice.  I created a javascript function that would get the value that user selected in selectOneChoice.  In the View created in Webcenter Content's Configuration Manager (above), there is a value corresponding to each value displayed.  So, for the selected value, I need to get the corresponding Capital and display it in my alert message.
    From Javascript, how can I get the value of Capital, given I have the value of State.

    Hi.
    The idea to achieve your requirement is next:
    Create a helper manage bean that will be call as Map access: #{stateUtil['Calofironia']} (it will return Raleigh). This value will be get calling GET_SCHEMA_VIEW_VALUES IDC service using RIDC in your manage bean.
    Pass the result of #{stateUtil['statename']} to your JavaScript function using <af:clientAttribute.../>
    I hope this information help you.

    Similar to the Report: Software 10A - Software titles with specific multiple custom labels defined.
    But i like to choose more than one Label 3.
    Does anybody have something like that? Its really complicated for me to edit that report.
