Hello All,
I am using AEM 6.3 with SP2.
I wanted to edit the metadata properties (basically to add new values for a multi-valued property) of multiple assets at once.
I followed this document the https://helpx.adobe.com/in/experience-manager/6-3/assets/using/managing-multiple-assets.html and try to add new values for the metadata with "Append mode" option checked. It's working perfectly fine.
But consider the following scenario.
1) I have uploaded 50 assets and added a custom metadata property lets say (material:diamond)to them
2) I add 100 more assets in same folder , and select all 150 and open in metadata editor screen.
3) I add the same property value which was added to first 50 assets (material: diamond).
4) I check the "Append mode" option and click save.
Now
the first 50 assets are having duplicate values (material[]:diamond,diamond)
and next 100 assets are having correct values (no duplicates)
I don't want to have duplicate values for the same property and still i want to use "Append mode" option because i have other available options(values) also which can be appended to the same property (ex: material : diamond,gold,silver).
Please provide your suggestions, how to handle this scenario.
Thanks in Advance,
Rohit
