When a user uploads a file, that user can specify which groups can modify the metadata for that file. If you belong to one of those groups, you can modify the metadata for that file.
- Log in, as described in Logging In.
- Perform a search, as described in Finding Data.
- In the search results, click the link for the asset of interest. The Asset Details page appears.
- In the row of the file for which you want to edit metadata, click the edit icon. The User Metadata page appears with the filename.
- Specify the information for the file:
- To add a metadata attribute, click Add Metadata. A blank attribute row appears. Specify a unique attribute name. (Repeat for additional attributes. To delete an attribute, click the X.)
- Specify a value for each required metadata attribute.
- Click Update. A message appears, confirming the update.
To view the metadata (one hour after the update), on the Asset Details page, click the Metadata icon () next to the filename.
