What is metadata?
Metadata is all of the information stored in Dash about your assets, including:
Their filename
What folder/s they are stored in
The values of all custom field information for them
This can be useful if you want to append metadata when doing a metadata import, or if you are migrating away from Dash to a different system.
How to export your metadata
To export your metadata you must be an admin. Simply go to Admin > Import & Export > Generate CSV file:
Once it's finished generating, you'll then be able to download the CSV file; it'll also be emailed to you.
What isn't included
The following assets are not included in a metadata export:
Assets in the bin
Assets in a user's upload area (i.e. before clicking "Done")
Unapproved assets
