Behavior

Its a view only field. The administrator who creates the field defines the search criteria e.g. product id = 123. The field will then show all Content Items that match this search criteria. Content that is not permitted to view will be greyed out. You cannot edit the field in single or batch edit mode.

Batch Actions:

• Download all related Content Items

• Add all related Content Items to basket

Related content items can be downloaded all together or placed all together into the basket, for further processing e.g. for editing or sharing. Additionally, each individual item can be downloaded directly or added to the basket.

Limitation

Dynamic View Fields are not editable - neither in Single nor in Batch Editor! The field is therefore also not available in filters or search.

The content shown in the field depends on the field filter configuration.

Display pattern

Picturepark does not use the Display Pattern on the Relationship Schema. 

All relationship information in the view mode of a Content Item is hard-coded and not considering Display Patterns.

Multi Relationship

Multiple items can be related. Examples are:

• different angles of a product (e.g., front View, top View, side view)

• featured images in press kits

• screenshots for FAQ

• related or featured productsRelated product content: Show all content related to a product (identified by product code), such as product images, datasheets, manuals, and more.

• Language versions: Show all translated documents with the same Document Title or print reference/document code.

• Variations: Show all variations derived from a master content item to keep an overview when the mast becomes updated. 

• And much more: Show all content with the same release number, associated with an event (based on the event title), or which is part of the same campaign. 

Display & Handling

The relationship field items are displayed as a list, or thumbnails small or mediumdynamic view shows item in a light version of the Content Browser, with list and thumbnail view. The elements can be re-arranged if you have edit permissions on the Content Item and view permissions on the related Content Items.

Permissions

Inside a relationship field, the Content Item permissions apply. For example, if you have a user that cannot view a Content Item in a relationship field he will get this view:

However, double-clicking on that field will allow him to view the relationship details - when the layer is visible and thanks to the "view for all" permission on the relationship schema.

Examples

On a Content item for a product, you might have a Relationship field for product photos. In your relationship schema for this field, you might have a single field for "View" that is, in turn, assigned to a List that provides the values Front, Top, and Side.

When a user relates a photo to the product Content Item, the field for "View" would appear, enabling the user to define the context of the related image. When the Content Item was published, this contextual information would be available.

Another valid approach is to use the Relationship field to relate creative files. Wether you are linking the zip package or individual files is up to you. 

In addition, your relationship schema could include fields for Caption or any other context information about the related content.

Item filter

Limit the Content Items available for selection by using a filter e.g., only show logos.

Minimum

Only whole numbers (integers) are supported. By adding a minimum value, you set the field required.

Maximum

Setting the maximum value to one turns a multi-item relationship to a single item relationship; however, we recommend to choose a single item relationship instead.

Required

This allows ensuring that at least one item is always related e.g. for press kits the hero shot or the logo. The minimum value fulfills the same purpose, but we recommend using the correct required flag for the desired required option. Filter template

You can add a filter here to find the related items.

{
  "kind": "TermsFilter",
  "field": "layer1.field1",
  "terms": ["{{data.layer1.field2}}", "{{data.layer2.field3.[0].field5}}", "{{content.field2.en}}", "hardcodedValue"]
}

Sort

You can select the metadata value that should be used for sorting the Content Items in the Dynamic View.
