Using Content from the Content Library
Many components of Oracle Responsys use content. The Content Library is deeply integrated within every area of Oracle Responsys.
Content selection within the application
Documents are the most widely used content items within Oracle Responsys. As a result, the most common integration point between Oracle Responsys platform and the Content Library is a content picker for documents.
Content pickers are most frequently seen in areas such as:
- Email Campaign message selection
- Form Campaign form selection
- Dynamic Content Rule resolution
- Form Rule resolution
- Social Campaign landing page selection
Each area that requires document selection provides a content picker that accessed the Content Library. Using the content picker, you can access Favorites, All Content, and Recent, just as from within the Content Library. Quick View is also available within the content pickers, giving you more visibility into the selected content item.
In addition to content pickers, you can use the Rich Text Editor for HTML (including the editor in the Preview – Design – Edit tool) to select images directly from the Content Library.
About paths for images and built-ins
HTML documents regularly reference two types of content that reside in the Content Library: images and other documents.
HTML image tags to content in the Content Library can use either a relative path or an absolute path.
Built-in methods must always use absolute paths.
Using relative paths for images
A relative path in the HTML assumes that the image is located either in the same folder as the document that uses the image, or in its child folder. For example, assuming a document located in FolderA/FolderB:
This tag assumes that the image called logo.jpg is located in the same folder as the document: <img src="logo.jpg">
This tag assumes that the image called logo.jpg is located in the child folder of the document called FolderC: <img src="folderc/logo.jpg">
Using full paths for images
All full paths must start with /contentlibrary/. For example, regardless of where the document that references the image called logo.jpg is located, the full path to the image will be: /contentlibrary/foldera/folderb/folderc/logo.jpg
The image picker in the Rich Text Editor always uses the full path.
Paths for built-in methods
In addition to image references, certain Oracle Responsys Built-in Functions take in documents and paths. In these situations, you must always use the full path, such as /contentlibrary/foldera/folderb/folderc/.
This includes the document() built-in and the foreach() built-in.
