Modifying the Webform¶

AMI spreadsheet imports allow the admin to set whatever metadata fields they want, but this is not reflected in the default webform. If the admin wants to include a custom metadata field in an ADO upload using the webform, they can’t.

This also raises issues when editing existing ADOs. There are three ways to edit an existing ADO:

AMI batch update
JSON edit
Edit Descriptive Metadata webform

The webform is the most user-friendly option. However, if the ADO has metadata not in the default webform, the admin is unable to edit those fields.

How to start editing¶

Go to /admin/structure/webform.
From the list, locate the webform you wish to edit. Click “Build” at the right hand of the table.
You should now see a list of all fields included in that webform.
