Creating a new record

This section guides you through the process of adding new metadata records with associated data and/or services into the catalog.

To add or edit metadata, user must have an editor profile or higher. That user should be a member of a group you want to add information for. Contact your administrator if you don’t have the correct profile.

From the home page, go to the contribute section or directly click on add new record menu.

Then, start with a metadata template (see Creating templates), choose a group and click create.

Note: If only one group is defined in the catalog, the default group will be selected.

The next step is to fill out properly the fields provided by default in the template and probably prepare an image of your data to illustrate it in the search results.
