Manage Global Attributes
MashZone NextGen global attributes define:
*Default or common values that should be used for input parameters to mashables, mashups or apps.
*Default or shared values for MashZone NextGen user attributes. For example, global attributes can define a credential that many users can share to invoke a mashable. Some users may have their own credentials which are defined as a MashZone NextGen user attribute of the same name.
*Credentials or other configuration used in connections to SharePoint when your site has the MashZone NextGen Add-On for SharePoint Add-On. For more information on global attributes used with SharePoint connections, see configuring Configure MashZone NextGen Connections to SharePoint.
*Schemas for datasets used in RAQL queries in MashZone NextGen Analytics. See Global Dataset Schemas as MashZone NextGen Attributes for more information.
To manage MashZone NextGen global attributes
1. Click Admin Console in the MashZone NextGen Hub main menu.
2. Open the Attributes section and click Global Attributes.
3. To add a global attribute:
a. Click Add new global attribute.
b. Enter a Name for the attribute.
MashZone NextGen attributes can have any name, but they must be unique within a given MashZone NextGen Repository. If a global attribute is to be used as a default for a MashZone NextGen user attribute, then the attribute names must match.
c. Enter the Value for the attribute.
d. If the value of the attribute should be encrypted, such as for a password, set the Encrypted option.
The value of the attribute is encrypted in the MashZone NextGen Repository and will automatically be decrypted when it is used.
e. Click Save.
4. To update a global attribute, click Edit for that attribute in the list and update the name or value.
5. To delete a global parameter, click Delete for that attribute in the list.
6. Restart the MashZone NextGen Server to apply these changes. See Start and Stop the MashZone NextGen Server for instructions.
