Metadata Bundles

Summary

Metadata bundles are a powerful feature in the UNS that allow you to attach additional static information to your assets and parameters. This information can be used to provide context, improve searchability, and enable more advanced data analysis. Examples of metadata include:

• location
• technical specifications
• maintenance details
• or any other relevant information that can help you better understand and manage your assets and parameters.

These values are stored in the database as tags and can be used for filtering or searching.

Creating a new metadata bundle

When creating a new metadata bundle, you need to give it a unique name and define its properties. The available properties are:

• String: A text-based property.
• Integer: A numeric value without decimals.
• Double: A numeric value with decimals.
• Boolean: A true/false or yes/no value.

warning

The name of the bundle cannot be changed later, so make sure to choose a name that is descriptive and easy to understand.

info

Creating a bundle does not provide any actual data. This is a template that you can fill with data when using in the UNS Builder.

Editing a metadata bundle

You cannot directly edit a metadata bundle, but you can add additional properties or remove existing ones.
