Methods


There are various methods available for the metadata export:

  • HTML file: A HTML table is generated with the selected metadata. With this method the possibility exists to also add thumbnails to the list.
  • Excel/CSV file: With this method an Excel or CSV file that can be downloaded is generated. This method is particularly suitable when data is going to be processed further. The field separator, with which the metadata are separated, can be defined when using the CSV file as method.
  • Template with selected assets for later Excel- or CSV metadata import: Export of specific asset metadata which can be edited locally in Excel and then re-uploaded. This allows the simple updating of metadata in Picturepark by using a Excel or CSV file

 

The additional option category translations to excel file is available if an export is carried out on a class or a category. The selection of export as Excel or CSV file is available, whereby for CSV files the desired field separator can be selected. In the export the name and description of the container, on which the export is being carried out, as well as the sub containers are listed. For a global export carry the report out on the "All" node.
