This task is a step in Process of Managing Content Assets.

To review and edit the properties of a content asset record

  1. Navigate to the Administration - Content Center screen > Content Sets view, and select the content set that contains the content asset.
  2. In the Assets view, drill down on the content asset name.

    NOTE:  You can also navigate to a particular content asset record by querying in the Content Assets view or by clicking on the asset-name hyperlinks on the Content Explorer.

  3. Complete or edit the fields as required.

    Some fields are described in the following table.

    Field

    Title

    A descriptive title for the content asset.

    Activation

    Sets the activation date for the content asset.

    There is no logic associated with this date in the Content Center module, but when this content is used by other modules, such as Microsite Management, these dates are used to determine whether the content is displayed.

    Expiration

    Sets the expiration date for the content asset.

    There is no logic associated with this date in the Content Center module, but when this content is used by other modules, such as Microsite Management, these dates are used to determine whether the content is displayed.

    Content Type

    This field is set when the content asset is created and cannot be modified.

    Language Code

    Sets the language code for the content asset.

  4. Click Edit HTML to edit content assets of type HTML directly within the Siebel application. For more information, see Editing HTML Content.
  5. Click the Preview view tab to preview the content asset.

    If the content asset is an HTML file or an image, the asset displays directly in the Preview applet. For other types of content assets, the title of the asset appears as a hyperlink, from which you can open the asset in the application that you choose.

  6. Click the Links view tab to review the links within a content asset.

    These may be links to graphics, to HTML pages, or to email addresses. They may be external links or they may be links to other assets within the content asset repository (internal).

    If the link is internal, Content Center checks whether the link is valid.

  7. Click the Referenced by view tab to review the other content assets that contain links to this content asset.
