Hi All,

Thanks for previous help. I have another issue.
I uploaded the image successfully but it was marked as "NOT SPECIFIED".

Below are the parameters I sent.

--form parent_folder_id="****"
--form manifest={"upload_manifest":{"master_files":[{"files": [{"file_name": "test.jpg","file_type": "image/jpeg"}]}]}}
--form asset_representation={"asset_resource":{"asset":{"metadata":{"metadata_element_list":[]},"security_policy_list":[{"id":10}]}}}
--form import_template_id="****"

image.png

Do I need to pass more parameters?

Sam

    Hi all,

    I'm not sure whether this is the situation in this case, but that "NOT SPECIFIED" label is displayed where there is no actual file component of the asset. This state is called a "metadata-only" asset. You may be able to tell if that is the case by checking in the UI whether the option "Attach Content" is showing. That would indicate that you have successfully created an asset in the DAM using the API but that the file (called "Content" for this purpose) didn't successfully upload and attach to the new asset. As an asset inherits the file's name by default, in the absence of a file the name field is NOT SPECIFIED.

    Kind regards,

    Three steps to importing an asset into OTMM (working off of memory here, so a bit stale)

    1- Create job

    2- Upload assets (which is what looks to be done in the above)

    3- Initiate job

    The job will trigger the creation of the thumbnail etc.. So I'm wondering if you are initiating the job via an api call?
