Manage custom metadata fields

The Metadata Manager page is used to configure and manage custom metadata fields in your system.

Metadata allows you to add information to a customer conversation. The metadata can be captured from your ACD and other applications to pass the data to the following APIs:

Schedule Details by Agents and Date API
Shifts by Agent API

Calabrio ONE also displays these metadata fields in the Details panel in the Media Player.

The fields on the Metadata Manager page are described below.

Field	Description
Metadata Key	(Automatically generated) A unique identifier for the metadata field, used by APIs. The metadata key is generated based on the text you enter in the Metadata Label field. Spaces are replaced with hyphens, and “-key” is added at the end. For example, if you enter example text in the Metadata Label field, the Metadata Key field displays example-text-key. The Metadata Key field does not allow ampersands (&) or equal signs (=). If those symbols appear in the Metadata Label field, they are removed automatically in the Metadata Key field. Max characters = 39.
Metadata Label	The name associated with the metadata field that appears in search results and contact information.
Metadata Type	The type of information contained in the metadata field: date, hyperlink, number, or text.
ACD Data	This field is only applicable to on-premise deployments of Calabrio ONE. Identifies the metadata imported from the ACD. Calabrio ONE reconciles ACD data by matching contact information in Calabrio ONE with call information stored in the ACD and changes the contact information in Calabrio ONE. The data is updated periodically. When you map metadata to ACD Data, you must select Text in the Type field.
Data Explorer Key	(Optional) A unique identifier to map metadata with Data Explorer. You can map up to 20 metadata fields with Data Explorer.
Encrypted Check Box	(Optional) Select this option if you want to report on contacts based on custom metadata fields. If you select this box, Calabrio ONE encrypts the metadata when stored. The Encrypted check box is enabled only if the Exportable check box is cleared. NOTE You cannot search for encrypted metadata.
Exportable Check Box	If selected, you can export the metadata via Calabrio ONE or an API. This check box is selected by default.
Read Only	If selected, the metatdata is read-only. You cannot add or edit metadata to a contact through Calabrio ONE. NOTE If the metadata is ACD data, this check box is selected by default and is disabled.
