Model

The Alfresco metadata is populated from the Content Store. Below we describe the schemas with an explanation of how the fields are translated to the Alfresco fields.

{
"migration" : {
"migrate" : true // REQUIRED | BOOLEAN | DESCRIPTION: Only objects where this value is set to 'true' will be created in Alfresco
},
"target" : {
// All the Content Store required fields + optional ones if required. Fields will be mapped to their Alfresco counter part automatically.
// For example target.contentType.systemName will be mapped to nodeType, target.description will be mapped to cm:description and target.created.principal.systemName will be mapped to cm:creator
"properties" : {
// Any additional properties, using their technical property names defined in Alfresco
// To find out about the technical names, use the Alfresco Model manager under Admin Tools
}
}
