Anyone know if it's possible to export metadata values from an entire schema from the admin interface?
v3.16
Do you mean export the fields from the metadata schema itself or all the values set on pages in a site?
The values set on various pages that use that schema.
I have set up something similar for some clients of mine. Basically it relies on two asset listings. You create a listing that lists the pages in your site and outputs as a csv. In the default format you nest in another asset listing. The second asset listing is used to dynamically create the keyword list for the metadata fields by listing metadata fields and root node is the schema. For added spice I have put in a dynamic root node replacement with a session var replacement so that the client can add a get var in the url they hit the first listing with and it will output different schemas. I used this same principle to create a dynamic way for them to generate a csv download of all their forms as well. I am working on full implementation documentation and will post it on a community site when it is all finished.
I might be missing something here, but a standard Asset Listing using %asset_metadata_fieldname% should do the trick.
Thank you guys, ended up being that simple…
Dan, yes good point and you are right. I wasn't trying to say that what i had built was the only solution:) I was dealing with over 30 sites and lots of different forms and schemas. The listing to create the keywords came out of some really large forms that took a long time to set up a listing manually and the fact that a listing had to be created for every form.
Good solution Dan. I would say asset listing page is not only for front-end but also for admin purpose. I remember last time when we had to have a backup restoration I set up a what's new page to generate all updated contents before the restoration began.
