Export the metadata

The metadata to be exported when you publish is defined in two configuration files on the application server. It can be extended with any customer specific field.

The two configuration files on the application server are located in \Infoshare\App\Author\Configuration and are named:
  • ReqMetaDataExportForPublication.xml is used for all objects
  • ReqMetaDataExportForPublicationXMLForPubObject.xml is used specifically for the publication object
Example:
<ishfields>
  <!-- logical-level properties -->  
  <ishfield name='FTITLE' level='logical' />  
  <ishfield name='FDESCRIPTION' level='logical' />  
  <!-- version-level properties -->  
  <ishfield name='FCHANGES' level='version' />  
  <ishfield name='FISHRELEASELABEL' level='version' />  
  <ishfield name='VERSION' level='version' />  
  <!-- language-level properties -->  
  <ishfield name='FISHREVCOUNTER' level='lng' /> 
  <ishfield name='CREATED-ON' level='lng' /> 
  <ishfield name='DOC-LANGUAGE' level='lng' />  
  <ishfield name='FAUTHOR' level='lng' />  
  <ishfield name='FRESOLUTION' level='lng' />  
  <ishfield name='FSTATUS' level='lng' /> 
  <ishfield name='MODIFIED-ON' level='lng' />
</ishfields>
In this example:
  • The title and description from logical level object are exported.
  • The changes, release label, and version from the version level object are exported.
  • The revision counter, created date, language, author, resolution, status, and the last modified date from the language level object are exported.
