Asset upload metadata

Setup Details :

Razuna 1.6.5
API v 2
Amazon S3 Storage

I’m using the api to upload and have set metadata to 1. I set meta_author in the post but it does not seem to work.

meta_title works and I can see it filled when I view the asset in the UI but the author field is not being set.

I’ve already tried meta_img_author, meta_author and even meta_iptc_author and none of them worked.

Thanks

The exact list of metadata fields and their names is here
http://wiki.razuna.com/display/ecp/Asset+API2#AssetAPI2-Modifymetadataofasset

The XMP-fieldname for author is creator.

I’ve had a similar issue however I’m trying to populate the asset’s keywords field. I’ve set metadata to 1 and tried posting a field ‘meta_img_keywords’, ‘meta_keywords’, ‘img_keywords’ to no success.

We’re using the Hosted version. I’m uploading via the API V2 using PHP/CURL. The assets show up on our account as expected but without any keywords attached to the asset.

My Debug email report has these lines which show the posted fields are arriving but not working apparently.

IMG_KEYWORDS untagged

METADATA 1

META_IMG_KEYWORDS untagged3

META_KEYWORDS untagged2

Are you setting lang_id as outlined in the documentation? What is “untagged”?

meta_lang_id_r is set to 1 explicitly though I noticed when I didn’t include it, the debug report showed it as 1 by default also. “untagged” is my test keyword field to see if it populates as expected. It is just a string being passed by my script. I used untagged2 and untagged3 so that if they keywords field was populated, I knew which “field” it came from.

Please send me in a PM (Private Message) your complete CURL API call.
