Metadata against Assets



  • Hi,

    Is it possible (or could this be considered as a change request if not) to include Metadata alongside Asset blobs? For example, as simple description stored alongside a file. It would be great if this could be done as users definable fields.

    This potentially could be extended to allow the API to then retrieve asset metadata.

    Thanks,

    Simon

    Product: ProGet
    Version: 5.1.9

    Currently assets do not have any user-definable metadata like this, I guess because that would make them a lot like packages? Assets also aren't intended to be like a "SharePoint replacement", which is why we don't want to put a lot of extra features like versioning, etc. These are also hard to replicate, etc.

    That being said, we are open to changes, so please consider using the Feature Request Process. Note that, we also want to evaluate "why" and "how this would be used", and that's part of the feature/change process.
