Metadata Input field

In most cases this field is used to enter free form text, althought it can be used to save http links, date, data or refer to application folder ( as internal link to this folder ).

AttributeDescriptionRequired
label

The text shown as a label in user interface.

true

name

Unique field identifier.

Two metadata can't have the same name. Name must be unique.

The name must start with "okp:".

It's a good practice to use metadata group name as basis for metadata field name. For example use "okg:consulting" has been used for field name "okp:consulting.input", changin "okg" to "okp". That helps to find out the metada group based on metadata field name.

Please, use only letters, numbers and underscore: "0-9a-zA-Z_".
