Enqueue Create Embed Action

The Enqueue Create Embed Action automatically create embeds for sharing content. This is especially useful for integrations, e.g., a CMS requires an embed link for a specific content , and for marketing operations, e.g. so users can easily pick embed links for distribution of files in ads, social media or mailings.

The Business Rule will execute, and the embed link is created if the Content Item is updated with the Publishing channel “Sales.”

Prerequisites

Existing Content Item in Picturepark.

Open Settings
Open Business Rules
Add a new business rule
1. Name: Embed link for sales content.
2. Trigger: Update, Content, Main doc
3. Condition: Field Value Changed Condition
  JSON
```
fieldpath: usageInformation.distributionChannel
expected value: "Sales"
```
4. Transformation: none
5. Action:
  1. Enqueue Create Embed Action
    Embed Name: Sales Material for Mailings (Default is: “Embed_RuleId”)
    Format ID: Preview (which format to use)
    Conversion string: (e.g. rotate90)
    Lock delivery options: true (select if users can manipulate the embed link parameters)
    Expiration date: variable or DateTime in ISO format (2022-10-10T10.00.00Z) with or without milliseconds
    Store URL in: embedUrlVariable (optional variable, which can then be assigned via Assign Value Action, or assign layer with default value)
  2. Assign Value Action
    path: layerId
    Field ID: fieldId
    Value: “$embedUrlVariable$“
    Replace: true

Limitations

Only one Format ID is possible per action. For embeds with multiple formats, you have to create multiple actions.
Embed are always created new, embeds are not updated.
The creation could be delayed due to the performance of the system, the action is enqueued, not directly executed.
