This article explains how to view asset metadata. To change metadata values, see Edit asset metadata.


Viewing asset metadata (single selection)

With a single asset selected in the asset pane, you can open the metadata panel on the right-hand side by clicking the Metadata button (not the arrow).

From here:

  • White highlighted text indicates fields that are selectable and editable.

  • Use the arrow at the top of the panel to select or filter a metadata view.

  • Filter metadata names by typing into the search box at the bottom of the panel.

  • Use the View empty metadata toggle to show fields that have no value, and the View in categories toggle to group fields by metadata category.


Viewing asset metadata (multi-select)

From the asset pane:

  1. Select one or more assets.

  2. Click the arrow to the right of the Metadata button.

  3. Select Edit Selected from the drop-down menu (or Edit Search Results to open every asset in the current search results).

This opens the asset metadata view.

The same filtering and metadata view options are available as in the single-asset view.

A list on the left shows which assets are currently selected for review.

From the asset viewer:

  1. Select the Metadata panel button to view metadata directly from the asset viewer:
    The asset viewer in Clip Link with the Metadata panel open on the right, showing the panel buttons, view drop-down, metadata fields and the Filter metadata box
