UC Multiple Values On A Metadata Field

Motivation

VidiCore’s metadata model is not restricted to a single value per metadata field. Each field is capable of holding multiple values. This can be used to model so-called tags in VidiCore.

Workflow

Add Additional Value

Use the attribute mode=”add” to ensure that the existing values are not replaced by the new value:

XML

PUT /API/item/<itemId>/metadata
Content-Type: application/xml

<MetadataDocument xmlns="http://xml.vidispine.com/schema/vidispine">
   <timespan start="-INF" end="+INF">
      <field>
         <name>title</name>
         <value mode="add">Titel 5</value>
      </field>
   </timespan>
</MetadataDocument>
