Mapping user area extensions

To extend standard nouns with user area extensions:

  1. Select Data Catalog > Schema Extensions and click the Extensions tab.
    This information is displayed:
    Noun
    The name of the standard noun to which a user area extension is mapped.
    XML Path
    The XPath expression of the UserArea.
    Schema
    The name of the schema file that is attached to it.
    To refresh the list of custom nouns, click this button:

    Refresh icon - Refresh

  2. Click Add to specify user area extensions mappings for a new noun. The Add User Area Extension dialog box is displayed.
  3. In the dialog box, select the noun you want to extend. All standard nouns available in all libraries in the Data Catalog are displayed. You cannot extend a custom noun; therefore the custom nouns are not displayed in this list.
  4. Once a noun is selected, all the XML Paths where an extended UserArea element could be attached are listed. Select the path to the element you want to extend.
  5. Select the schema to attach to the path you selected previously. All schema file names uploaded for this tenant are displayed and can be selected. You can only attach one schema file to a selected path.
  6. Click OK to confirm this configuration. The new mapping is added to the Data Catalog and the list of extensions is automatically refreshed. The user identifier and the timestamp of the last update are displayed in the upper-right corner of the screen.
  7. To add more mappings, repeat the steps above.
