Page History
This page describes how to update the custom metadata for a collection or a data file from the Browse page. (Question: Does this ability depend on user roles or permissions?)
To update metadata:
- Log in View content details as described in Logging In in Viewing Data Details via the Web GUI. The Dashboard appears.
Include Page shared step - browse for content shared step - browse for content Navigate to and right-click the location where you want to create your collection. Click View Details. The Collection Collection page or Data File page appears, listing all attributes for the collection or data file (both custom metadata and system-generated metadata).
- Click the edit icon (). In the Metadata section of the Collection the page, the custom metadata attributes become editable. (Question: Why display the system attributes? Are internal users able to edit the system-generated metadata, to resolve problems? Has the team considered separate lists for the custom and system metadata?) Also, buttons appear.
To add a metadata attribute:
Click Add Metadata. A blank attribute row appears.
Specify a unique attribute name.
- In each custom attribute row, specify a value that describes the contents of the collection.
