Viewing and Editing Interplay | MAM Metadata
The Metadata pane displays properties that are associated with a selected asset in the Interplay MAM database, such as Comments or Creation date. Some properties are created automatically and others you can create or edit manually. In the Metadata pane, if a property is editable, a text box, drop-down menu, or other input control is displayed.

2 | Lock button | 6 | Editable text box |
3 | Save button | 7 | Non-editable field |
4 | Metadata section selector | 8 | Examples for editable properties |
The properties that are displayed in the Metadata pane are determined by the configuration of the property and the metadata template of the corresponding asset type in the Interplay MAM Datamodel Administrator application. An administrator can define the following:
• Which properties are displayed
• If a property is editable, read-only, read-only based on the values of another property, or mandatory
• If a property shows a default value
• Limits for text input
A user must have write permission on assets to edit the metadata of an asset.
For information on properties and assigning permissions, see the Interplay | MAM Datamodel Administrator User’s Guide and Interplay | MAM User Manager User’s Guide.
