Table Configuration (config-table.csv)

CollectionBuilder uses DataTables to generate a table that can be searched, sorted, and downloaded as a whole or in a filtered version. The table appears on the collection’s “Data” page, and the “_data/config-table.csv” allows you to add or remove data from the table and adjust its display name.

We recommend not using more than 5 or 6 fields here, as the table can become overcrowded.

The columns are described below, and an example is provided for your convenience:

field:

  • Determines the metadata field that is included on the table.

display_name:

  • Determines the label that is displayed for that field.

Example

field,display_name
title,Title
date,Date
creator,Photographer
subject,Subjects
