Managed Metadata fields using "entire path to the term" - how can I access this data?

We are trying to make it easier for our users to enter metadata, so the hierarchy is really useful and we can display it as the "full path to the term".
eg. country, region, town
But there are times when we need an individual piece of data like region.
Calculated fields do not work. :-(
So I have been trying to access the data from a SharePoint Designer Workflow.
But - I can only get to the leaf node element - the last value from the selection.
Does anyone know a trick to get the full hierarchy string of Country-region-town???
Many Thanks

Hi Ruth,
Per my knowledge, there is no OOB way to retrieve the entire path of the managed metadata column value.
However, you can use the code sample to get the Managed Metadata Hierarchy, please refer to the link below:

  • Display the entire path to the term in the field option programmatically

    hi,
     I am having hundreds of doc libs with a  taxonomy column .now i want to change the property diaplay format:
    Display the entire path to the term in the field option, programmatically.
    can anyone pls help how to achieve this. i am thinking of writing  a consoel appln which iterates through all the sub sites on my site collec and  all doclibs and want to access this taxonomy columns and change this  display format .
    but i am stuck with whats the property responsible for this.
    help is appreciated! 

    hi Benjamin,
    Please try IsPathRendered Property of the taxonomy field. It is a Boolean field which related to display format of a taxonomy field.
    FALSE - Display term label in the field
    TRUE - Display entire path of the term in the field

  • On imac 10.6.8 using current version of Aperture.  How can I access the Aperture Library  on my external hard drive that I use with time machine for backup?  I can only access the application but not the library..

    On imac 10.6.8 using current version of Aperture.  How can I access the Aperture Library  on my external hard drive that I use with time machine for backup?  I can only access the application but not the library..

    Go into Time Machine (the program not the bundle on the extrnal disk) and using Time Machine's browser go to the Folder where the library lives. You could look in the library bundle in Time Machine but that won't really tell you much,
    If you want to make sure it truely has backed up your library you will need to restore it and open the restored library with Aperture.
    If all this still has you confused you need to read up on Time Machine in order to get a feel for how it works, for what it is doing and for how to restore files from it.

    iCloud storage is not allocated by device. iCloud storage is allocated to your iCloud AppleID. You get 5GB of iCloud storage.

  • ICloud storage space used up by old data from 1st gen iPad I traded in nearly 2 yrs ago for an iPad Mini. Can't backup any info for mini or new 6 plus. How can I access this old data to clear it out?

    My iCoud storage space is being used up by old data from a 1st  generation iPad I traded in nearly 2 yrs ago for an iPad Mini. The people at the sprint store where I made my trade were supposed to transfer everything over from my old iPad to the new Mini once they backed up the old device to iCloud. Well, long story short, none of the data ever got transferred to the new iPad, but it all got backed to iCloud, eating up all my storage space. Here I am almost 2 years later, and I've never been able to back-up my iPad mini. What's worse, My iPhone 4 wasn't backed up that whole time, and now I can't back-up my data from my new iPhone 6 Plus to iCloud either. Trying to find creative ways to store and save my information and data between all my devices is getting to be ridiculous. I don't want to upgrade my storage space though...just want to clear out a great deal of what is already being stored. How can I access this old data to clear it out?

    The only way to access data from an iCloud backup is to restore it to your device.  You could, for example, back up your iPad mini to your computer using iTunes (by connecting it, opening iTunes, then going to File>Devices>Back Up and choosing to back up apps and transfer purchases when prompted), then erase it and restore the old iPad backup (as explained here: iCloud: Restore or set up your iOS device from iCloud), save any recovered data you want to keep, then restore your iTunes backup back to your iPad mini (by connecting it to your computer, opening iTunes, then going to File>Devices>Restore from Backup).
    Once you're done with the old backup, delete it from your account to free up the space.

    You copy them from your old computer or your backup copy of your old computer.
    The iphone is not a backup/storage device.

    Hello there, graciecloyd.
    The following Knowledge Base article offers a few steps to try when an application is not functioning as expected:
    iOS: Understanding multitasking
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4211
    If an app doesn't respond to your input, or doesn't perform as expected, do the following, testing after each step:
    Check for app updates.
    Force the app to close.
    Restart your device.
    Update your iOS device.
    Learn more about troubleshooting apps.
    On Step 2, close all applicaitons that are open. On Step 3, if the restart doesn't help resolve the issue, you may also want to try the Reset step in that article as well.
