Search for [Remote Key] and [Remote System] in Data Manager

[Former Member]

Hello all

I would like to be able to search on the remote key and the remote system in the MDM Data Manager is that not possible? I thought I remembered seeing that possibility under the Free-Form Search but now I can't find it.

I have, however, found this in the Data Manager reference guide:

REMOTE SYSTEM AND REMOTE KEY FIELDS 
MDM uses the remote systems defined in the Remote Systems table 
within the MDM Console to store and maintain key mapping information 
for each record or text attribute. It does this using a virtual “key 
mapping” field that you never see in the MDM Client. 
This virtual key mapping field is very much like a qualified lookup field 
into a virtual key mapping qualified lookup table. 

Key Mapping information stored in virtual lookup field 
The Remote System and Remote Key fields are normally not visible; 
however, they do appear in several places in the MDM Client. 
Specifically, both fields: (1) appear in the File > Export dialogs in Record 
mode for exporting value pairs; (2) are recognized by the File > Import 
dialog in Record mode for importing value pairs; and (3) appear in the 
Edit Key Mappings dialogs in both Record mode and Taxonomy mode, 
for viewing and editing value pairs. 

Is there any way to search on the value in the remote key from the Data Manager?

Not sure search i think not possible.

But you can see keys as mentioned:

Enable Key mapping in Console.

MDM Client maens MDM Data Manager.

They do appear in several places in the MDM Client or Data Manager. Three different methods to see in DM are given already below:

Specifically, both fields: (1) appear in the File > Export dialogs in Record mode for exporting value pairs; (2) are recognized by the File > Import dialog in Record mode for importing value pairs; and (3) appear in the Edit Key Mappings dialogs in both Record mode and Taxonomy mode, for viewing and editing value pairs.

Alexander,

That's not possible afaik. The only idea I have is to develop web application with needed functionality using Java API which could be acessible via Web tab of Data Manager.
