In the Metadata Manager, you can use the CSV Loader utility to load additional metadata for the existing metadata types. The CSV Loader utility creates a CSV file that you can load into the Metadata Manager's database by running the Collector Engine.
To load metadata via the CSV Loader for the existing metadata types:
- Create the CSV files in the appropriate file format using the CSV Editor.
- Run the CSV Configuration wizard to configure the CSV files so the Collector Engine can pick them in during the next run.
- Run the Collector Engine.
For the existing types, you can load and enrich the following metadata:
- Items
- Item attributes
- Parents and children
- Maps
- Map relations (source to target map details)
- Map attributes
- Type attributes
