Issue Details

I want to register image files (.png) in SystemLink's File Viewer and add numeric and date-type property information for the image files so that they can be searched. However, when I tried to add these properties from the SystemLink web interface, it was stated that only string type property can be registered. Can any other data type properties aside from string type be registered in the SystemLink File Viewer?

Solution

For SystemLink's File Viewer, string type is the only supported data type property. Other data type properties (e.g. numeric, timestamp etc.) is not supported in the File Viewer.
