Hi All,

 

I am using  Asset api to create asset and assigning metadata propertiese  by adopting asset.

When I assign prperty to dc;title if any document has defined title on it is not able to assign my custom title.

 

Could you please suggest how to resolve this issue. Same thing is happening for dc:description field too. I need to override this with custom data.

Hi @anny0505 

resource.getChild(String) will take relative path. Just see the below updated code. No need of "asset.getPath() +".

Resource resource = asset.adaptTo(Resource.class);
Resource metaResource = resource.getChild(DAMConstants.JCR_CONTENT_METADATA);
ModifiableValueMap modifiableValueMap = metaResource.adaptTo(ModifiableValueMap.class);
modifiableValueMap.put("dc:title", "Title");

resource.getResourceResolver().commit();

    @1960491_kumarkThank you for the response.

     

    Please find the below code 

    To create asset in AEM :

    asset = AssetImportUtils.createAsset(assetManager, targetPath, fileInputStream, mimeType);

    To update asset props

     

    Resource resource = asset.adaptTo(Resource.class);
    Resource metaResource = resource.getChild(asset.getPath() + DAMConstants.JCR_CONTENT_METADATA);
    ModifiableValueMap modifiableValueMap = metaResource.adaptTo(ModifiableValueMap.class);
    modifiableValueMap.put("dc:title", "Title");

    resource.getResourceResolver().commit();

    Hi @anny0505 

    I am able update asset meta data title using below code. check whether required permission is set for the service user which you are using. 

     

    Resource metaResource = resourceResolver.getResource( "/content/dam/we-retail/en/products/apparel/gloves/Gloves.jpg/jcr:content/metadata");
    ModifiableValueMap modifiableValueMap = metaResource.adaptTo(ModifiableValueMap.class);
    modifiableValueMap.put("dc:title", "Title After Update");
    if(resourceResolver.hasChanges()){
        resourceResolver.commit();
    }

     

    Asset Before Update (with title configured) : 

     

     

    Asset After Update (using service resource resolver in backend) :

     

     

     

    Hope this helps!

      Thank you @manjunath_k. Does your document has title property set?

       

      before you upload document to DAm server please open with PDF and right click on the document CLick on Document Properties. Check if your document has properties set. if Not for me also it updating title.

      If I have document propertiese set on asset file then it is not overriding.
