Adding and Editing User Task Attachments
When you create a process, you attach at least one asset to it. If a user task results from the process, you can edit the attachment within the context of the user task: You can view the attached asset, remove the asset from the user task, or add new assets in the Tasks app. Which and how many assets can be added depends on the configuration of the process to which the task belongs in MediaCentral Asset Management.
To add media to a task and view the attached asset:
1. Select a task in the Task List.
The Task Details area shows the number of attached assets in the header area, and attached assets as asset cards in the Attachments area.
2. If you want to view a media asset attached to the task, double-click the head frame in the Attachments area.
The asset (video or audio clip, or basic sequence) opens in the Asset Editor’s Media Viewer.
3. If you want to add a media asset to the task, click one or several assets in the Browse app’s Results area and drag them to the Attachments area of the task.
A head frame of the video asset or a clip icon of an audio asset is displayed in the Attachments area, along with metadata describing the asset. If you dragged an invalid asset type, a message is displayed and the asset is not attached.
When you apply an action to the task — for example, you click the Approve or Send Request button — the range of allowed attachments is checked. If the number of attached assets violates the configured limit, the Attachments count is shown in red.
