Import keywords from database

I have found the parent XML file that contains my keywords (Adobe Bridge Keywords.XML). Is it possible to add additional files that contain keywords (eg. Adobe Keywords 2.xml) without affecting the existing lists of keywords?
I have found the ability to import keywords via the keywords panel and a tab delimited file, but I would prefer an XMl format or database structure in which I could preserve the hierarchical (or relational) structure of the keywords sets.
Is this possible? I am not afraid to write some script if necessary or to learn some XMP coding if necessary but it doesn't seem like it should be that difficult since the keywords seem to simply be xml files.
Thanks for any suggestions!

  • OBIEE Error while importing table from database

    Hi
    I am getting the following error when i am trying to import table from database.
    [nQSError: 16001]ODBC error state: IM004 code:0 message:

    Any idea y such error.

    Looks like an error in the ODBC driver, not OBIEE as such.
    Have you tried googling it?
    Can you post details about your OS and DB.

  • Export/import to/from database

    hi,
    i do not know what is this for. i read the help but still no idea.
    i know to use export/import to/from memory id and also set/get but not export/import to/from database.
    1) what help says it stores data cluster? what is data cluster
    2) can have example of export/import to/from database?
    3) what is the different for export/import to/from memory id and database?
    thanks

    Hi,
    1) A data cluster is a set of data objects grouped together for the purpose of storage in a storage medium(Like database, local memory or shared meomory etc), which can only be edited using ABAP statements like EXPORT, IMPORT and DELETE.
    2) Suppose you want to export the data in a internal table to database.
    Here TABLE_ID is the identifer of your data cluster. You are exporting your data to a SAP table INDX and giving it an ID (TABLE_ID in this case and this ID you are giving it an area by name XY where your data will be stored). EXPORT tab = itab
      TO DATABASE indx(XY)
      CLIENT '000'
      ID 'TABLE_ID'.   
    You can get this data as follows.
    IMPORT tab = itab
      FROM DATABASE indx(xy)
      CLIENT '000'
      ID 'TABLE_ID'.
    3) The difference is simple when you use MEMORY ID the data you export is stored in the application server MEMORY where as in the case of DATABASE it is stored in the database.

  • Importing Keywords from Excel into Lightroom (XMP)

    My current photo log is in Excel. I'm thinking of moving to Lightroom. Does anyone know if there would be a programmatic way to import keywords from an Excel file, and avoid having to manually apply keywords to each imported image? The data in my Excel file provides a perfect (nearly perfect?) correspondence between keyword and image file name. I know next to nothing about XMP, but I could get some help if I knew this was possible. Thanks!

    Garry, try this: Take one image in LR, apply some metadata and use "Metadata > XMP > Export XMP Metadata to File". Examine this xmp file to see what it has to look like.

  • Importing keywords from external file

    Is there any way to import keywords from a text file into Aperture to automatically tag images? For example, if I have a spreadsheet with a list of names and numbers can I enter the image numbers in the spreadsheet (on the iPhone) and then import that data to the Aperture album with the images. Kinda like a merge of the data.

  • LR2 and importing keywords from CS3 Bridge

    I've just started a 30 day LR trial and need some guidance, please, on successfully importing keywords from CS3 Bridge so that the complete heirarchy survives intact.
    I've just imported the keywords to LR2 and found the heirarchy is mostly destroyed.
    Also, Bridge allows you put a keyword inside "[ ]"  (square brackets) if you want/need that word in the heirarchy but do not want it to be copied to the metadata.  After importing to LR2, all the square brackets have gone.
    I've imported some photos into LR2 but, when I look at their keywords, all the words which were within square brackets (and so not visible in the metadata in Bridge) are now visible in the metadata in LR2.
    Anyone found a solution to this, please?  I really don't want to have to re-keyword everything if there's another way.
    Thanks,  John Walmsley

    Ginger
    I ran a test for you. Started up my old computer that has windows XP OS. Took a photo and added a keyword by right clicking as your previous post outlined. I then looked at photo in Bridge CS3 on old machine. There was no keyword. Copied to flash drive and looked at photo on Vista computer with Bridge CS3. Still no keyword. Ran a search on Vista advanced for keyword on flash drive, and it gave a hit.
    So my conclusion is that the keyword is there, but Bridge does not read the XP generated keyword. It will read a keyword generated by same method in Vista. Don't know what else to suggest. Don't have CS4 so do not know it that works or not.
    Perhaps with these clues someone else can figure it out.
    Good luck

  • Importing keywords from external database

    I have a simple request that seems to be impossible. Back in the days before LIghtroom, I had a database that identified most of my images, cross-referenced to their filename.  Rather than manually keyword these thousands of images, I would like to import the keywords based on the data already inputted into the database. Is there any way to accomplish this?
    TIA,
    Richard

    Richard,
    I assume you're talking about photos already imported into LR.
    AFAIK there's now way to batch update keywords for photos in the catalog, as PlugIns are currently not allowed to modify keywords.
    LR/Transporter PlugIn provides a way to import metadata from a file, but not keywords. LR/Transporter suggests a partial workaround for this (see "The Keyword Conundrum" on this LR/Transporter page).

  • Importing Keywords from other DAM Software (Cumulus)

    Hi,
    A client is currently switching from analog to digital photography. She is a professional garden photographer. The switch to digital photography comes along with establishing a raw processing workflow and therefore she is impressed with Lightroom's integration of DAM and raw processing.
    Before she was filing her large portfolio of color slides, inside a Cumulus image database, using small scans of her slides for orientation in the database and creating contact sheets for her clients. In the Cumulus database she has established a large hierachical keyword vocabulary, containing flower and plant species, their genus, family, order, class, phylum etc., you probably know what I mean. Some of the keywords have associated synonyms.
    The new Lightroom catalog will only contain the new digital images, so that the old images from the Cumulus database will not be migrated into the new Lightroom catalog. Of course the client wants to import the Cumulus keyword hierarchy into the Lightroom catlog.
    I have the following questions now:
    1.) Is there a *practical* (I do not mean technical) limit to the amount of keywords Lightroom can handle (speed)?
    2.) How can we import a keyword vocabulary from an external program into Lightroom? Is there any base format, such as CSV, which we could use? The Cumulus version the client uses does not support XMP, and since XMP only relates to a particular image, that would not help anyway. Where is the keyword vocabulary stored? Has somebody experience with such a migration issue?
    3.) I have notice that Lightroom supports synonyms to keywords. However, I have not found any way to use them. My impression was that they were not regarded in keyword or text-based searches. Maybe I overlooked something.
    So, I hope anybody has some ideas.
    Kind regards

    Hi
    I try to give you few brief answers.
    1) I have almost 1000 keywords (including synonyms) and I don't have problems. But at least some previous versions of Lightroom were unusable with controlled vocabularity keyword set which contains something like 11000 keywords. I haven't recently heard any comments about large quantity of keywords. So someone with more experience should comment on that.
    2) You can import keyword hierarchy to Lightroom from text file. File should have keywords in tab intented hierarchy, with one keyword in line. If I recollect correctly the file should be in UTF-8 character set (this is important if you have some non ascii characters in keywords). Synonyms are marked with {} and keywords that are not exported with [].
    3) Synonyms are written as keywords when images are exported. As far as I know current search tool does not support synonyms (yes, this is weird).
    Hope this helps at least a bit.

  • Importing Keywords from Lightroom/Elements?

    Recently upgraded from Elements to Lightroom/CS5.  Keywords from elements useable in Lightroom but lightroom/Elements Keywords not showing up in Bridge.  Is there a way to import them.  If not, this really handcuffs the switch to Bridge.  Any and all help appreciated.

    Lightroom and Elements use a database to store metadata.  Bridge and many other progams store the info on the image.
    In Elements you want to click file/write keywords tag and properties info to photo.  Then you can read it in Bridge.

  • Importing Keywords from CS2 to CS4

    I notice in CS4 Extended (Trial) that one can import Keywords. I still have CS2 will all it's files on the same system and was wondering what the name of the CS2 file is that I can import existing Keywords from.
    Thank you!

    Personally,I don't think is a strange question, mainly because I will be in the same position soon. If I understand correctly, you are concerned that you wont be able to install CS4 64bit if you have to install CS2 first. Is that correct?
    If so, I'm in the same boat. I assume that it will be possible as it is possible to run CS2 in 64bit mode.

  • Importing keywords from stock photography sites

    We purchase a lot of images from stock photography sites, such as Shutterstock and iStockphoto.
    We have been using a software called QPict to catalogue the images. QPict is no longer supported.
    We'd like to shift to Lightroom or possibly Bridge. Is there a way to automatically import the images along with their keywords from those sites?
    In QPict, I've had to find an image, go to the site, copy out the keywords and paste along the image in the catalog. Very tedious process, especially that QPict had limitations as to the number of keywords per image that you could import. Took forever just to catalogue a few dozen photos. We have thousands.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated. For the life of me, I cannot find any help in Google or any forums I've visited.
    Thank you in advance.

  • Importing keywords from iPhoto

    I would like to import my current keywords from iPhoto to Aperture. What is the best way to do this, and then to keep them synched?
    Thanks -
    Dudley Warner

    You're on the right track, but you'll need iPhoto Library Manager to do it. It's the only way to move files from one library to another while maintaining metadata. So, assign all the keywords to one pic, then transfer it to the new library using iPLM. It's a $20 shareware, and all round good app. You can read about it here:
