Updating your taxonomy connector configuration

Before you begin

As of SDL Tridion Docs 14 SP1, the taxonomy connector configuration accepts identifiers for its Category and its root Keyword that persists across Content Manager instances in a DTAP (Development, Test, Acceptance, Production) setup. Modify your taxonomy connector configuration to make it portable across such a setup.

About this task

Before SDL Tridion Docs 14 SP1, you could only specify the two named parameters CategoryId and RootKeywordId by their SDL Tridion Sites Content Manager URIs. These identifiers are different across Content Manager instances. To improve portability, SDL Tridion Docs 14 SP1 now allows you to use portable identifiers instead, and recommends that you change the existing URIs in your configuration to such portable identifiers instead.

Procedure

  1. Sign in to Organize Space.
  2. On the top tab level, select the Settings tab.
  3. On the second tab level, select the XML Settings tab.
  4. On the third tab level, select the Extensions tab.
  5. Find the source section that has a parameter subelement with its name attribute set to the value CategoryId.
  6. Change the value of this subelement from a Content Manager URI to the equivalent WebDAV URL. Refer to the Tridion Sites documentation to learn more about WebDAV URLs.
  7. In the same source section, check for a parameter subelement that has a name attribute set to the value RootKeywordId.
  8. Change the value of this subelement from a Content Manager URI to the equivalent Keyword key. To find this key, in the Tridion Sites Content Manager Explorer user interface, enter the URI, open the properties of the Keyword, and copy the value of the Key field into the parameter value in Tridion Docs.
  9. Repeat steps 5-8 for the other source sections.
  10. Select Save to apply your changes.
