Picture uploading in Internal Catalog

[Former Member]

Hi Gurus,

We have an issue regarding uploading of pictures for Internal Catalogs.

Our client keeps the material pictures in a central repository site. Can we upload the link (I mean the path for the site) for each and every picture with the help of a .txt file or so, similar to the way we upload the characteristics and schema of catalogs? Which transaction/ method do I need to use to mass upload the same?

We don't want to upload the link one by one for each product. Hence, looking for this alternative.

Thanks in advance.

Regards,

Ancy

Hi Ancy,

You can maintain at schema level of the relevent catalog the MIME URL which will act then as the MIME ROOT for all pics/attachments.

Then, for your uploads, you need to maintain the name and MIME type of the associated pic etc.

For example, in http://mywebserver:myport/pictures you have many images, one of these is a jpeg, batteries. You would then in the upload file need to just name (providing you use the same MIME ROOT) the name and mime type so that the system concatonates this then as ~

http://mywebserver:myport/pictures/batteries.jpg

CCM always just contains a pointer to the attachments not the attachments themselves.

Jason
