CentraSite Documentation : CentraSite User’s Guide : Using the Asset Catalog : Viewing Details for an Asset : Before You Begin
Before You Begin
The following general guidelines apply when examining the details of an asset:
*If you are not the owner of the asset, to examine details of the asset, unless you have View permission on the asset (granted though either a role-based permission or an instance-level permission). For more information about roles and permissions, see the CentraSite Administrator’s Guide.
*When you view the details for the asset, you will only profiles for which you have View permission.
*Each tab on an asset's details page represents a collection of attributes called a profile. You will only the profiles for which you have View permission. Each asset type has a unique set of profiles. However, your administrator can configure these asset types to display a customized set of profiles and attributes.
*You can view a tooltip text for any attribute in a profile of the asset's details by moving the cursor to the attribute name. The tooltip text gives a summary of the attribute's purpose. The tooltip text shown is the content of the attribute's Description field and is as defined for the asset in the asset type definition.
*This is of specific relevance to REST and XML based service assets. Beginning with version 9.7, CentraSite Control does not support the following out-of-the-box asset types: REST Service, XML Service, Virtual REST Service, and Virtual XML Service.
*CentraSite supports the enhanced interface for REST services (in contrast, earlier versions of CentraSite supported a standardized interface for REST services). Note that the standardized REST service interface that was implemented by versions of CentraSite prior to version 9.7 is not compatible with the enhanced interface that is implemented by current version of CentraSite. Documentation of the prior REST service interface is available to Software AG customers who have a current maintenance contract in Empower, Software AG's global extranet Empower Product Support website.
*If you have REST services that were created prior to version 9.7 or if you are using the current version of CentraSite Business UI, these REST services will continue to hold the version's metadata in the enhanced REST service interface implemented by current version of CentraSite.
*You can only view details of the REST services in CentraSite Control. Keep in mind that you cannot edit or delete REST services using the CentraSite Control user interface (not even if you belong to the CentraSite Administrator role). You will only be able to edit or delete REST services using the CentraSite Business UI.
