Make Your Metadata Great Again

Metadata are probably the most critical elements of documentation publishing: they enable contextual information retrieval and faceted search with content filtering.

Get inconsistent metadata on your docs and nobody will find anything in the documentation! Most of the times, this metadata chaos stems from data source diversity, unclear or changing writing/tagging strategies.

Post-editing of metadata without the burden of modifying content is actually possible. Fluid Topics’ new Enrich & Clean capability lets you define metadata alignment rules that get applied automatically at content publishing time.

What can the audience expect to learn?

In this Test Kitchen, we will teach you how to align metadata through the intuitive creation of a custom taxonomy, and therefore make your content consistent and consumable. We’ll also show how to create dynamic reading suggestions and links between pieces of content, leveraging newly-aligned tags.
