Useful Actions

- In the Content Library, click the star next to files you want to track.
- In the Browse tab, click Starred to open your Starred folder.

Select a Range of Files

Upload Files to Heretto CCMS
You can upload various files types to Heretto CCMS, including DITA files, images, configuration files, and other allowed files.
For more information about files you can upload to Heretto CCMS, see What file types can I upload to Heretto CCMS?.
Ensure that the document type (DOCTYPE) declarations in your DITA files do not contain the DITA version number (1.1, 1.2, or 1.3). Otherwise your files will be invalid after upload.
An example of a doctype declaration with a DITA version number (1.3):
<!DOCTYPE concept PUBLIC "-//OASIS//DTD DITA 1.3 Concept//EN" "concept.dtd">An example of a doctype declaration without a DITA version number:
<!DOCTYPE concept PUBLIC "-//OASIS//DTD DITA Concept//EN" "concept.dtd">If you want to upload a large number of files, compress these files to a ZIP archive.
Tip:Uploading files compressed to a single ZIP archive is quicker than uploading multiple files without compressing them first.
By default, when you upload a ZIP archive to the Content Library, Heretto CCMS unzips the archive retaining its folder structure. If needed, you can also upload a ZIP archive to the Content Library without unzipping it.
The upload process starts and the Cancel Upload option becomes active. Using the Cancel Upload stops the upload process and prevents files form being saved in the CCMS.
Customize Columns in the Content Library
You can customize the view in your Content Library by adding, removing, and rearranging custom columns. Custom columns are driven by taxonomy metadata configured in Heretto CCMS.
Confirm with your CSM that this feature is enabled in your CCMS.
Configure taxonomy metadata. See Create a Metadata Category for Taxonomy Metadata.
You can now see custom columns in the Content Library. Your settings persist until you change them. Custom columns you configure are visible only to you and do not affect the view for other users in the CCMS.
Enable Dark Mode for Heretto CCMS
You can enable dark mode for Heretto CCMS by using the Dark Reader browser extension.
The Dark Reader browser extension inverts bright colors on websites to simulate dark mode. For more information, see https://darkreader.org/.

Get a Resource UUID
Each resource in Heretto CCMS has its own Universally Unique Identifier (UUID). UUIDs are essential when working with Heretto CCMS API and are also useful in other scenarios, such as referencing resources like graphics or custom fonts in PDF Generator publishing configurations.
