{% trans "Creating Resource Data" %}

 

{% blocktrans %}The Resource Editor is used to create new or edit existing Resources. What you see on the left-hand side of the page is this Resource's "card tree", which shows all of the data entry cards that you can edit. Think of "creating data" as "adding cards".{% endblocktrans %}

{% blocktrans %}To begin, select a card, enter data, and click Add. Some cards may allow multiple instances, in which case you will be able to add as many of the same type as you want.{% endblocktrans %}

{% blocktrans %}Note that in the demonstration below, the "Define Resource Descriptors" function has already been configured to set the Name card value as the resource display name.{% endblocktrans %}

{% trans "basic card data enty - click to view" %} {% trans "open in new tab" %}  

{% blocktrans %}Once you have saved data for a resource, you can see a full summary by selecting the top card. This is the resource report.{% endblocktrans %}

{% blocktrans %}In some cases, cards will be nested within other cards, as in the example of adding a geo-location below.{% endblocktrans %}

{% trans "nested card data enty - click to view" %} {% trans "open in new tab" %}  

{% trans "Creating Resources Relations" %}

 

{% blocktrans %}In the Resource Editor you can also access the Related Resources Editor . To create a relationship between this resource and another in your database, open the editor, find the resource, and click Add.{% endblocktrans %}

{% blocktrans %}Your Resource Model will need to be configured to allow relations with the target Resource Model. If relations are not allowed, resources in the dropdown menu will not be selectable.{% endblocktrans %}
