Marking administration (create, modify, remove)
You can use Administration Console for Content Platform Engine for creating and applying marking sets. Applications can also utilize one of the Content Cortex APIs.
Here are some general rules governing administration:
- Renaming a marking set
- Renaming a marking set after it has been persisted is not allowed. The marking set name can be modified only during the creation of markings. Once it has been persisted, the marking set name is read-only.
- Changing the marking value
- The value of a marking can be modified even when properties exist which use that marking value. Existing objects that have property values set to the old marking value will not be updated to reflect the new marking value and, therefore, will need to be updated manually. If the property value is not updated, the marking security on those objects will no longer have any effect.
- Modifying the constraint mask and security
- You can change the marking's constraint mask and security any time without affecting existing properties.
- Deleting a Marking Set
- Marking sets that are referenced by at least one property template cannot be deleted. The marking set can be deleted if it is not associated with any property templates or after any associated property templates have been deleted.
- Removing a marking
- Individual markings can be deleted from a marking set at anytime, even if a property value is set to that marking.
