Data Mappings

Data mappings define relationships between document data fields recognized by content handlers, index fields (searchable part of index database which is identified by its name) and record fields (document properties).

To define new data mapping enter mapping description, data field (as recognized by content handler) and select appropriate mime type to define document type where this data field appears. Specified mime type must be defined in File Type settings. Description is optional and is provided for your convenience as a comment about the mapping.

If form field "index as" is defined, items from data field will be indexed in a specified index field.

Weight defines items' weight with which they are present in a specified index field. It could be significant when content of few data fields is indexing in one index field. Then weight settles importance of items found in different data fields.

Parser field shows the parser used for separation of items from the quoted field. At this time, only default parser is available. Custom parsers might be supported in future releases.

Parameters point to parser parameters. For default parser supply list of delimiters that you want to use to distinguish items in data field. (Of course, delimiters are not present in index.) If parameters are not defined, the default delimiters will be used.

If the "store as" field is defined, the complete content of data field will be saved in a specified record field as is. Predefined record fields are title, location, size and weight. Additional fields will be added if required by some mapping.

When you finish inputs click on "Save" button and new or changed mapping will be saved.

To delete data mapping select appropriate definition in the list and click on "Remove" button. Click on "New" button will erase form fields, and prepare them for new entries.

To edit data mapping select appropriate definition in the list and click on "Edit" button. Settings for a selected mapping will appear in the form.

To disable any data mapping uncheck appropriate box in the "Enabled" column.
