Adding Metadata to a SideDrawer can help further improve workflow processes leveraged within the SideDrawer platform. This is particularly important with SideDrawers Batch Delivery Process. Below is how you can add Metadata to a SideDrawer.
Adding Metadata during the Creation Process
It is easiest to add Metadata to a SideDrawer during the creation process
Step 1: Create a SideDrawer by uploading the CSV Template
Drag and Drop your SideDrawer Creation Template into the File upload section with corresponding Metadata.
If you are completing this for the first time, download the CSV template to get started (button to download is on the bottom left side)
Step 1.1: Preparing the CSV template to Create SideDrawers with Metadata
The CSV Template mirrors the creation screen in the SideDrawer Web App with the added ability to create Metadata Keys and Values
Row A: is the name of the SideDrawer
Row B: is the email of the owner of the SideDrawer
Row C / D: are the first and last name of who the SideDrawer is for
Row E (and additional columns if needed): is where you specify the Metadata Key and Values
The Metadata Key is the Column Header (ex. accID)
The Metadata Value is the Row value assigned to the SideDrawer (ex. 123456 assigned to SideDrawer “User 1”)
You can create multiple Metadata Keys and Values by adding as my columns to the CSV as needed
Step 2: Review the Metadata Value before Creating
Once the CSV is uploaded all of your SideDrawers will be ready for creation
Hovering over the “?” icon lets you see the Metadata that will be assigned to the SideDrawer
Create the SideDrawers and you are Complete!

Select the action button to the right of the SideDrawer you are looking to modify and select “Manage Metadata”
Step 2: Update Metadata
Within this screen you can update the Metadata assigned to the SideDrawer
