Restrictions for the data transfer into the cache database

The restrictions of the published data are defined in the main database via projects and data withholding . In the cache database further restrictions can be set for every project. You may set a filter on description data to restrict the Descriptions, select the Descriptors, the Scopes and the Translations that are transferred.

To set the restrictions, click on the  button (see below).

A window as shown in the following sections will open.

Descriptions tab

The Descriptions filter works the same way as the Extended query. Use buttons Add description, Add scope or Add descriptor to insert filter items for description, scope or descriptor criteria and set the filter conditions. With button Remove filter item you may remove the currently selected filter item. In the lower right corner Matches: shows you the current count of description items that match the adjusted filter criteria. In the lower center part the resulting SQL filter is shown.

Descriptors tab

With the Descriptors filter you can select the descriptors for which summary data shall be transferred. Use button the arrow buttons  << ,   <  ,   >   and  >>  for moving the entries between the Not published and Published list. Click button Transfer existing to move all descriptors that are used within the database to the Published list. With button Transfer from tree you may move all descriptors connected to the selected Descriptor tree to the Published list. Option Show sequence numbers includes the descriptor sequence numbers in the lists. If you do not only want to suppress the descriptive data but also want to hide the descriptors and their state from the cache database, select the option Omit descriptors.

Note: With this option you may keep the selected descriptors completely away from the cache database. If you want to suppress certain descriptors only for selected targets, there is an additional possibility to control the export based on the Packages (refer to "locked characters").

Scopes tab

With the Scope filter you can select the scope type for description scopes that shall be transferred. Use button the arrow buttons  << ,   <  ,   >   and  >>  for moving the entries between the Not published and Published list. Click button Transfer existing to move all scope types that are used within the database to the Published list.

Translations tab

With the Translation filter you can select the translation languages for description items, descriptors and categorical states that shall be transferred. Use button the arrow buttons  << ,   <  ,   >   and  >>  for moving the entries between the Not published and Published list. Click button Transfer existing to move all translation languages that are present within the database to the Published list. Use the check boxes Descriptions, Descriptors and States to select the tables where translations shall be published. By default, i.e. without explicit adjustment no tranlations will be transferred to the cache database.

Descriptor trees tab

With the Descriptor tee filter you can select the descriptor trees that shall be transferred. Use button the arrow buttons  << ,   <  ,   >   and  >>  for moving the entries between the Not published and Published list. By default, i.e. without explicit adjustment no descriptor trees will be transferred to the cache database.

Resources tab

With the Resources filter you can select the resource links that shall be transferred. You have to select at least the Entity types and the Resource types that shall be published. By default, i.e. without explicit adjustment no resources will be transferred to the cache database.

If you select Publish all from section Resource types, all available resources that either are URLs (starting with "http://" or "https://") or color codes (starting with "color://#") are included in the transfer. This general restriction ignores resources that are located on your local machine and therefore not generally reachable. If you select the explicit types Images or Colors, the resource variant types must be set correctly, e.g. "image/jpeg". This can be done for an individual resource in the corresponding edit panel by retrieving the media data from the source. A more comfortable way to get those data for a large amount of resources is to use the database maintenance tool.

With the check boxes Restrict role you may select role values that shall be transferred. With Restrict ranking you may select the minimum ranking value of published resources. If you select the value "0", the ranking values will be ignored, i.e. even unranked resources will be published.
