Our support team will contact you back to confirm the installation date and make sure you have everything configured properly to start using the Scaleflex DAM plugin.
Once this is done, you will be able to find the new block in your "Block Library" under the name "DAM" and be ready to go!
Depending on your level of support and onboarding plan, a CSM can assist you for the next steps: setup and configuration.
You have 3 required configuration items to take from the Asset hub: Token (the unique project or library identifier), Security Template (this will be used as the secret for authentication), Directory (where you want Storyblok's assets to be stored and retrieved from, usually a dedicated sub-directory; note that this field must be comprised under the directory limit of the Security Template you have selected) And there are optional fields: limit, attributes
You can add as many blocks containing the DAM field type as needed. There is no limit on the number of blocks you can include.
Go to Block Library -> New Block
Enter any Technical Name you want, Select Nestable Block -> click "Add Block"
In the side modal "Edit [Technical Name]" that appeared, enter any name as Field (eg. DAM_Asset), then select the type of field as plugin -> click "Add"
Click on the field just added (in the "General" section below), then scroll down to the Plugin Options, then choose "filerobot-storyblok" in the Custom Type drop-down. Add the 3 configuration keys you gathered from the DAM and set up like below:
token = Token from DAM (aka project identification code),
secTemplate = Security template from DAM,
rootDir = Base directory (also in the security template configuration).
limit (optional) = number of files you can show when choose on DAM Asset
attributes (optional) = add more data on API Response Structure (ex: meta, tags, owner),
limitType (optional) = File Type Filtering ( ex: image, video, audio, application, application/zip, application/x-zip-compressed, application/vnd.rar, application/x-rar-compressed )
forceFilters (optional) = The advanced search metadata filters ( Please contact us to show your use case so we can provide the correct Setting to adapt your requirement )
Example: You want to show only assets have expired_date metadata field greater or equal today you can use setting bellow:
[{"key": "expired_date", "value": ["$CURRENT_DATE..", "EMPTY"]}]
Note: Show complete Metadata work if the token has permission. The list project configuration default shows the title and description.
