Using key maps

When a template or Active Content containing a key map is imported and the key map does not exist in the system for the current community, an empty key map will be created with the key map name. In this case, you will need to use the update key map option to import the keys to the key map, to define the target directory.

Note that an empty key map will count as non-existing when the check is made if a template or Active Content is complete.

External keyed images are supported for on demand, batch processing, and the Interactive Editor with either wildcard keys or non-wildcard keys. However, wildcard keyed images will not be displayed in Interactive Editor.
