Set Properties
The Set Properties Action task defines properties for entities saved in the OL Connect
Database (Records, Content, and Jobs). These properties are applied to the entities and can
then be used to retrieve them using the "Retrieve Items" on page660 task.
Input
The task must receive Metadata that contains appropriate entities, generally from the "Execute
Data Mapping" on page645, "Create Print Content" on page636, "Create Web Content" on
page639 or the "Create Job" on page624 tasks.
Processing
The task sets the chosen properties to all entities present in the Metadata. These properties are
added to the entities on the OL Connect Server. Note that the properties are calculated only
once, and are applied identically to all entities. If each entity should have different properties
(such as record-level properties), the Metadata should be split using the "Metadata Sequencer"
on page593 task first.
Output
The task outputs Metadata that is identical to the input Metadata. Only the entries on the OL
Connect Server side change.
