Metadata Checkbox field

Checkbox

Best used to represent boolean data:

AttributeDescriptionRequired
label

The text is shown as a label in the user interface.

true

name

A unique field identifier.

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

The name must start with "okp:".

Using a metadata group name as a basis for a metadata field name is a good practice. For example, use "okg:consulting" as the group name and "okp:consulting.checkbox" as the field name, changing "okg" to "okp". That helps to find the metadata group based on the metadata field name.

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

true

value

Specifies a default value for this component.

The allowed values are true and false.

 false

width

The width of the HTML element.

In the case of KCenter, the UI must use width values based on %, for example:

  • width="50%" will work
  • width="100px" will be ignored in the KCenter UI.

false

description

General description.

false

readonly The field cannot be modified in the user interface. By default, the value is "false".

false

dbColumnSize

Set the size of the database field where the value is stored.

By default, fields are stored in a database column with a size of 128 characters. Because your data length might be greater than 128 characters, the administrator should update the default column size.

Take a look at the Metadata XML definition documentation section for a detailed explanation of metadata storage in the OpenKM database.

 

defaultAccess

Default security access policy. By default, it is set to "grant", so all users will see the property.
