Hubshare Mfiles Creator Widget

Hello Fellow Community, 

Simply put, I am trying to use the prefilled options to fill fill a specific piece of metadata in an uploaded document. 

The Hub Name is an exact match for the data, so it should be an easy fix. But regardless of how I set it up or put it together the file always ends up with this metadata missing. 

Am I doing something wrong, or is there a problem in the system...

Here is a screen shot of the current set up: The Yellow marked Metadata is always missing even though the "success" window pops up. 

I appreciate your help in advance. 

All the best

Jamie

P.S. I know I can simply select the metadata from the drop down list, but I need the widget to be dynamic because it belongs in a template. 

  • Hello Jamie,

    Unfortunately, you are not able to use that same value as it will try to look for a different property called "Shared From" inside the original "Shared From" item.

    I don't know if that sounds clear to you, but it won't be dynamic since it doesn't consider both "Shared From" as the same item, but two separate ones, Hubshare will try to look for a property within that "Shared From" item.

    One thing that could be done from our side is not allowing to select the same value in the first step of the relationship, but at the end it will not work as expected for you. 

    Let me know if my explanation wasn't clear enough, I can provide more details.

  • Hi Abdoullah, 

    Thanks for your speedy response.

    If you say that ultimately this will not work as I expect it to....How is this done by others?

    I can't imagine that I am the only one that doesn't want the user to have to modify every individual widget when a new Dashboard is created from a template.....

    I am wanting to set up the widget in a Template, so that the appropriate filter will be automatically applied to all hubs created from the template. 

    Can you offer any advice?

    Thanks in advance. 

    Jamie
