Add a Layer to Content

You add a Layer in several ways. 

• In the Content Item Detail View, in the metadata panel. 

• In the Batch Editor. 

• After the upload is finished from the popup.  A prompt allowing users to directly open and work on imported files in the batch editor, once an import has been completed, is displayed. This can be deactivated, if desired, by more proficient users.

Add Default Values for Tagboxes on a Layer

For tagbox fields on layers, you can define the default values for tagbox. Those values are automatically assigned when the layer is assigned and you create a new tag from within the layer.

The default values are not applied to the Content Item but only used when new List Items are created from within the tagbox.

• Define “Active employee” as default values for tagbox “Person” on the Layer “Corporate Information”.

  1. Assign Layer “Corporate Information”

  2. Find Tagbox “Person”

  3. Create a new person for the tagbox

  4. See the fields (information) you need to create a new person

     1. “Active employee” is prefilled.
