Update assets
If you have a Pro license, you can update the metadata of assets in bulk via the 'Update assets' page.
To get started, you need to select the assets you want to update. You can select assets by selecting a category, who uploaded assets, tags,... After selecting the assets you want to update, you can download the metadata of these assets in a CSV file which will include all the metadata fields that you have configured for your platform. You can update or fill in these fields with the relevant data you require, leaving the empty fields as they are.
Once you have updated the file, you can save is as csv and upload it in the next step.
When the file is uploaded, you can start the update. In this step, you can choose to enable the creation of tags from IPTC/XMF data. If there are any keywords added to the files' IPTC/XMP data, they will be added to the keywords in Kadanza. Use this feature with care, as it can create keywords that you did not expect to appear. Or put differently: if you only want to add the keywords you listed in the update file, make sure this option is unchecked.
Once the update is started, you can monitor its progress in the update logs at the bottom of the page.
This update functionality updates data directly in the database. Make sure you keep a copy of the original data in case you want to roll back. Always use this functionality with caution, as a small change on the metadata can have a large impact on functionality and possible integrations.
