A bookmark allows you to quickly access a collection or data file of interest. If your user account has the Read permission level on any collection or data file in DME, you can create a bookmark on that collection or data file.
dm_add_bookmark <bookmark_name> <description.json> [REST-response]
The following table describes each parameter:
| Parameter | Description |
|---|---|
| <bookmark_name> | The name that the system displays on the UI for the bookmark. |
| <description.json> | The name of the JSON file containing additional data parameters for the command, as follows: {
"path" : "/Path/To/Bookmark",
"group" : "A bookmark group name"
}
|
| [REST-response] | An optional path and filename in your file system. If you specify this parameter, the system creates the specified file in the specified location and saves the response header (response from the server) in that file. |
For example, consider the following command:
dm_add_bookmark MyCollection /cygdrive/c/Users/JaneDoe/my-bookmark.json
With the following code in the specified my-bookmark.json file, the command creates a bookmark named MyCollection and associates it with the PI_Lab1 collection:
{
"path" : "/TEST_Archive/PI_Lab1",
"group" : "My bookmark group"
}
To view the bookmark in the GUI, log out of DME and log in again. Refer to Logging In via the GUI.
If your user account has the system administrator or group administrator role, the dm_add_bookmark command also allows you to add a bookmark for another user and set permissions for that user at the same time. For information, refer to Adding a Bookmark for Another User via the CLU.
