'Title' and 'Description' properties

irblue

Hi,

When files are transfer to Alfresco via FTP, the "Title" and "Description" properties seem not set and become missing, when template are apply with "child.properties.description", it generate errors.

Is there a way to set the "Title" and "Description" properties to empty instead of just missing.

Hello,

The automatic extraction of the documents title and description is performed through the web client interface.

But, there is a way to perform the same extraction using CIFS, FTP and WebDAV.
What you have to do is add a content rule to the folder that you are importing to, using the action 'Extract common metadata fields from content'.

Hope this helps,

Steve

Thanks for the reply.

I tried the suggestion, it works for some office files (Word, Excel …etc) but didn't work for text or image files (.txt or .bmp …etc).

The metadata for both files are set in Window Explorer.

Hi all,

Said differently, is it possible to force description and title metadata to be created on upload on content that has none of them ?

When uploading a file which can't be parsed for metadata extraction, no title or description can be manually filled. Furthermore, catalina.out delivers a warning :

19:58:56,215 WARN  [component.property.UIProperty] Failed to find property definition for property 'description' for node: workspace://SpacesStore/4d413c2e-0086-11db-8f4d-b1cddc53e552‍‍

Hi,

You can add rule launching javascript action that will populate these metadata (e.g. with constant value: "Undefined", "To be completed",…) if they are not.

Hope this help
