DC 5.1.0 6 - Configuration Upload metadata tags
- Magnus Frank
Upload metadata tags are metadata fields that is populated with information about the physical file or information embedded in the physical file. This is for instance:
- Image information (width, height, etc.)
- IPTC data
- Exif data
Each metafield definition has a field called Upload-tag-Name on the metafield label tab. This field should be populated with the key of the value to be inserted. These key-value pairs are found using this tool. The embedded tool takes as input the physical file used as a reference and prints out a list of key-value pairs.
The embedded executeable is used from a command prompt like this:
MetadataExtract.exe MyReferenceAsset.jpg
The output is as mentioned a list of key-value pairs that could look like this:
JPEG:Compression Type = Baseline JPEG:Data Precision = 8 bits JPEG:Image Height = 4888 pixels JPEG:Image Width = 7199 pixels JPEG:Number of Components = 3 JPEG:Component 1 = Y component: Quantization table 0, Sampling factors 1 horiz/1 vert JPEG:Component 2 = Cb component: Quantization table 1, Sampling factors 1 horiz/1 vert JPEG:Component 3 = Cr component: Quantization table 1, Sampling factors 1 horiz/1 vert Exif IFD0:Image Description = The entrance to Michael Jordan Steak House on the Magnificient Mile in Chicago. Photo by: www.caughtinpixels.com Exif IFD0:Make = NIKON CORPORATION Exif IFD0:Model = NIKON D800 Exif IFD0:X Resolution = 240 dots per inch Exif IFD0:Y Resolution = 240 dots per inch Exif IFD0:Resolution Unit = Inch Exif IFD0:Software = Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 5.0 (Windows) Exif IFD0:Date/Time = 2014:03:28 09:41:12
Where the left hand side is the key and the right hand side is the value.
The key is then populated in the Upload-tag-Name on the metafield label tab.

After doing this, the Internet Information Service (IIS) has to be restarted, as these definitions are cached.
