how to handle docstate metadata property

[djohn98390536]

I have created a metadata schema and applied this schema  but when i try to see properties of an asset 

by default docstate metadata property is added to the properties page  which i hv not added in schema.

Can any body share how to handle this property.

Hi @djohn98390536 
Could you please check assets from JCR and check metadata. I believe the schema property is mapped with existing jcr property, thats why you have prefilled values.

Document State is often used in context of AEM Guides (XML Dita Add-On).

Can you please check, if there are any visibility rules set OOTB, which have not propagated to custom schema?

The docstate property is part of the default metadata configuration in AEM Guides. It is available out-of-the-box, even if you haven't explicitly added it to your custom schema.

Check this documentation about doc states

And configuring them

Finally as this is related to guides, it is better you ask in Guides community - https://experienceleaguecommunities.adobe.com/t5/experience-manager-guides/bd-p/xml-documentation-qa...
