Add or Update Meta Data: Description, Category, Provider and Tags

Depending on your MashZone NextGen permissions, you can add or update information about mashables, mashups and apps in MashZone NextGen Hub including the description, category, provider, region and tags.

Note: Published apps in the AppDepot should already have most of their meta data before they are published. You can, however, add tags to a published app in the AppDepot.

Category is the primary level of "what" this artifact does or what it is about. Tags refine that "what" and make it easier for you and other users to quickly find artifacts. The provider identifies "who" provides the information from this artifact.
